Unfortunately the values that are stored in the QComboBox are read
from the data file. The "workaround" that i was able to implement was
to create the correct number of QTextEdit widgets and place them in
the Gui in QtDesigner. Then in my constructor for my Panel Class, I
simply call "setVisible(false)" on each of those QTextEdit widgets so
they do not show up in the GUI. I then add in the appropriate logic
using Signals/Slots to keep those invisible widgets up to date.
Seems kinda of klunky but frankly there is not enough
documentation in ParaView to stray from what is in the Wiki. There is
mention that I need to implement some sort of "adaptor" for things
like this (QRGB to RGB) is used as the example, but no actual
implementation details so I, as the programmer, am basically left
guessing what to try to implement.
Thanks for the suggestion though. Keep them coming. Better, yet,
would be places in the ParaView source to look for "examples" besides
grepping through the sources for key words.

If the elements you want to display in you combobox are always the
same, simply use:
<IntVectorProperty
name="ActiveDimension"
command="SetActiveDimension"
number_of_elements="1"
default_values="0">
<EnumerationDomain name="enum">
<Entry value="1" text="X"/>
<Entry value="2" text="Y"/>
<Entry value="3" text="Z"/>
</EnumerationDomain>
</IntVectorProperty>
and then rename you combobox to "ActiveDimension" in qt designer.
That's should be enough to do what you are looking for.
If you want to fill dynamically your combobox depending on some
inputs, it's harder than that but can be done.
for you first question, you can always use immediate_update=1
instead of information_only to make sure that your value is pushed
immediately to the server.

Well,
That helped. At least something is getting set on the server side
now. Copy-Paste error. Doh. Alas, the value getting set is not the
correct value.

Why do you have the "information_only" attribute ? That's used only
for properties whose value are obtained from the server -side and are
never pushed "to" the server. Simply remove that attribute, and it
should work -- I think.

Yes, I did not know about that, but adding it still did not help.

Are you forgetting a this->proxy()->UpdateVTKObjects() call after you

In my ServerManager XML file I have the following:
<IntVectorProperty
name="ActiveDimension"
command="SetActiveDimension"
number_of_elements="1"

And in my Client GUI code (which extends pqLoadedFormObjectPanel) I
have
the
following code:
vtkSMProperty* smProperty =
this->proxy()->GetProperty("ActiveDimension");
if (NULL == smProperty)
{
DebugTrace(<< "SMProperty was NULL for 'ActiveDimension'" );
}
vtkSMIntVectorProperty* activeDimProperty =
vtkSMIntVectorProperty::SafeDownCast(smProperty);
activeDimProperty->SetElement(0, index);
Doing a std::cout on the server side indicates that the Server side
property
(ActiveDimension) is NOT getting set. What exactly am I doing wrong?
I would also like to have a QComboBox in the Gui that is hooked up
to a
server side property. What is the best way to go about that?
Thanks
