I use pyside-uic to convert my *.ui to a *.py file. Works like a charm.
Use it as follows: python pyside-uic test.ui > test.py Hope that points you in the right direction.

Is tcl faster than python inside nuke when you have to set knobs on a lot of different nodes? I had this impression and I was trying to convert all the simple expressions inside my gizmos but I would like to be sure. Also, is it possible to translate something like this def saText(): try: file = nuke.thisGroup().input(0).knob('file').value() text = os.path.split(file)[1] text = text.split('_')[0] text = text.split('.')[0] return text except: return 'Bad naming convention/location' to tcl or I have to use python?

Since Python expressions are called through TCL, at the very least, they will suffer a consistent (if likely miniscule) overhead no matter what. Additionally, the double-edged sword of Python is that, while it’s typically easier for beginners to pick up, it also makes it much easier to write inefficient code than TCL does, so unless you’re a strong/smart Python programmer, you will likely introduce more avoidable overhead manually. The general rule I tend to try and adhere to (and would recommend) is, if something can be done in TCL without exceeding a certain (admittedly subjective) threshold of complexity, I’ll use that over Python. The function you’ve listed can basically be written like so as a TCL expression: [lindex [split [lindex [split [file tail [value parent.input0.file]] _] 0] .] 0] -Nathan From: Luca Fiorentini Sent: Friday, September 21, 2012 5:21 AM To: Nuke Python discussion Subject: [Nuke-python] python and tcl Hi!

Unfortunately, i didn't succeed in. It always returned me : "RuntimeError: Unable to open ui file" I tried different things and i ended up to make the more minimalistic code to avoid side effects. to display only a window it would be :    from PySide import QtGui    w = QtGui.QMainWindow()    w.show() same concept with .ui loading would be :    from PySide import QtGui    from PySide import QtCore    from PySide import QtUiTools       w = QtGui.QMainWindow()    loader = QtUiTools.QUiLoader()    file = QtCore.QFile("pyQtRender.ui")    file.open(QtCore.QFile.ReadOnly)    myWidget = loader.load(file)    file.close    w.show() To avoid maximum error i use the provided foundry's sample "pyQtRender.ui" copied in the directory given by "QtUiTools.QUiLoader().pluginPaths()" It's surely a noob problem, but i would appreciate if someone could show me the minimal code to make the QtDesigner's ui file works. I hope someone can shed some light for me, Cheers philhub ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Nuke-python mailing list Nuke-python@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-python End of Nuke-python Digest, Vol 56, Issue 15 *******************************************
