Hey Everyone, So I recently have been trying to collect and compile information on setting up PyCharm properly for use as an IDE for Maya. This is all well and good and the instructions are fine, however currently when trying to get the code completion working it doesn't seem to be functioning as the old tutorials used to say it does. most likely due to either changes in PyCharm or the actual code in the devkit stubs that Luma wrote. Currently it seems that when adding the stubs path
$MAYA_LOCATION/devkit/others/pymel/extras/completion/py it doesn't function the way it used to and instead just replaces all of the maya package's functions/modules with stub code which results in all function/class calls returning None. If anyone knows where I went wrong I'm all ears. I've tried manually placing the stubs in my pycharm skeleton user settings directory, but it just overwrites/deletes them when it rebuilds the skeleton caches. Here is the open ticket/forum post on the Jetbrains site. https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/205811499-Interpreter-re-configuration-from-editor-to-run-time-Is-this-possible-?page=1#community_comment_115000140904 https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-8377 If anyone has completion working and even if I have to get an older version of PyCharm I'm open to anything at this point. Developing isn't impossible without auto-completion obviously just nice to have. Example Older Tutorials: http://tech-artists.org/forum/showthread.php?3153-Setting-up-PyCharm-for-use-with-Maya-2013 Seems the old devkit used to have empty files...however now they're fully developed stubs. https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-programming/fully-working-intellisense-with-maya-api-2-0-in-visual-studio/td-p/6248110 Interesting ideas on how to customize the locations of the stubs...but didn't work for me. http://www.robg3d.com/2013/01/maya-and-pycharm/ http://cgreminders.tumblr.com/post/86163002495/maya-get-pycharm-setup-with-auto-completion-of -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
