What do you mean with Gui generated ?, ie you have generated it with Qt Designer and pyuic. – eyllanesc Aug 30 '17 at 16:48

As long as vispy is using Qt as backend, you must use .native, this parameter will make the canvas use QGLWidget, for example:
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
import vispy.app
import sys
canvas = vispy.app.Canvas()
w = QMainWindow()
widget = QWidget()
w.setCentralWidget(widget)
widget.setLayout(QVBoxLayout())
widget.layout().addWidget(canvas.native)
widget.layout().addWidget(QPushButton())
w.show()
vispy.app.run()
