Hi,

but the code just open the file and save it with a new name.

QFormBuilder writes out all properties since plain Qt properties do not 
store whether they were modified. The book-keeping required for this 
only exists in Qt Designer.

Some unsupported properties/flags may then be encountered.

 > Is there a better approach to save QWidgets as ".ui" from code?

No, unfortunately.
