now...

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.

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. QT UI looks
great but i would like to be able to Doc any pyQt UIs i have. i'm no qt expert,
but it would be really nice to have Pyqt Commands exposed for maya ui.

from the blog
For starters, this week I'm going to cover the basics of the new QT user
interface. I'll also discuss how QT Designer can be used to create UI for
your own custom tools. One thing I fail to point out in the demo movie is
that all of your old MEL based UI should still be fine. You can still use
the traditional MEL UI commands to create windows, buttons, sliders, etc...
just as you always did. But now you have to option of creating your UI
directly with QT as well.
hope that helps
from what I've seen so far all my ui works the same as it did before...
still have some things to test
