Hello, I'm trying to create what I think should be a fairly simple plugin to use pymol to showcase structures for a University Open day - all it needs to do is load up coordinate files and maps and present a very simple GUI that visitors can use to move between pre-defined scenes.
I've constructed a PyQt plugin following the tutorial on pymolwiki which works up to a point... If I display the window using dialog.show() as in the tutorial example, the window disappears immediately on opening. If I change this to using dialog.exec() my widget opens correctly and everything works - but since this is now a modal window it is not possible to return to the main pymol gui and interact with the structure. This was the point of the exercise an why I'm not just making a movie! Does anyone have any advice on what could be done to fix this behaviour? It probably goes without saying that I am very much a novice at this! Thanks, Ed. -- Dr. E.D.
