For Maya native UI I had always thought that an accepted approach was to store the UI prefs in Maya OptionVars? If they are really complex settings then I guess you could go with Chad's suggestion of storing a json prefs file. For Qt, it already provides a QSettings concept which knows where to store, and retrieves it for you based on app and organisation name. Even if you aren't using Qt for your UI, technically you could use QSettings from PySide to manage your prefs if you don't want to deal with the filesystem details. > Jake > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to python_inside_maya+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/python_inside_maya/CAEKd6baxEMb21GugKE7cWb0F38aSBR4c1z82UEWm-7sxq8j4Lw%40mail.gmail.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/python_inside_maya/CAEKd6baxEMb21GugKE7cWb0F38aSBR4c1z82UEWm-7sxq8j4Lw%40mail.gmail.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
