converting is pretty much as simple as not using pumpThread: you get the running qApp and add your widgets to it. see my earlier message in this thread about how to convert one of the autodesk devkit examples.
i'm currently fleshing out some 2011-only tools for pymel that will convert back and forth between PyQt widgets, pymel UI objects, and maya gui string paths (like '|MainWindow|paneLayout|columnLayout1'). i'm also making an lsUI-like function for recursively finding PyQt objects by type, name, regex, etc. unfortunately, it's too late for these changes to make it into 2011, but they'll make it into a future release. in 2011 every maya gui object is also a qt object, so using these new tools you'll be able to get the corresponding Qt object doing something like this: import pymel.core as pm maya_btn = pm.button() qt_btn = maya_btn.qtObject() still haven't worked out the details. -chad On Mar 23, 2010, at 12:40 AM, johnvdz wrote: > great vids by the way.. > > I sort of don't use much Maya UI stuff, i used maya 7 a bit but i just went > with pumpthread stuff using pyQT back in 8.5 so i guess what i'm asking is > there a replacement for pyQT Pumpthread.py?(see the devkit for more info). i > prefer to code in Pyqt for any dynamic QT stuff and then have 3 separate > files.. my QT .ui my pyQT UI functions for Dynamic UI functionality and then > maya Functions. it would be nice to make my old Pyqt scripts Docable in the > future. > > thought there might be more on the PyQT side of things but i have a feeling > there isn't much there. > > i really haven't had time to chase this up yet so i was wondering if there > was a supported Simple Solution. > > not sure how much Autodesk has done on the QT side of things. can we use PyQT > to Query existing Maya2011 QT UIs? > > here is my basic QT lancher for pumpthread. for maya 8.5-2010.. > > i have a .ui file > > this file(see below) > > and a Functions file(myExternalFuctions.py) > > > import myExternalFuctions #my other functions file for maya cmds > UI_FILE = '/maya/scripts/python/myPyQT.UI' > from PyQt4.QtCore import *###is it possible to Not have to have these in the > new QT UI? > from PyQt4.QtGui import *### > from PyQt4 import uic### > > class MainWindow(QMainWindow): > def __init__(self, *p): > QMainWindow.__init__(self, *p) > uic.loadUi(UI_FILE, self) > > ###Myfuctions in here linked to .ui file commands that are passed to my > .py ,maya functions eg import myExternalFuctions > > > > win = None > > ### is there a way to Query QT in maya Instead of pumpthread so we can make > these docable...? > def run_maya(): > import pumpThread as pt ###importing the pumpthread script from the DevKit > global app > global win > pt.initializePumpThread() #make sure Pumpthread is running > > app = qApp > win = MainWindow() > win.show() > > if __name__ == '__main__': # runs them Main window > app = QApplication(sys.argv) > mw = MainWindow() > mw.show() > sys.exit(app.exec_()) > print '%s done' % __file__ > > > anyway just trying to Look at Solution for when i migrate to 2011.
