PyQt help: examples load, but do nothing
Hey All,
Recently I've been trying to get into qt for use in softimage, but have come across another roadblock.
Everything seems to load just fine, the PyQtForSoftimage plugin doesn't give me any errors, and the examples open just fine. So it would appear as if everything is working. However, the examples don't seem to function properly. They don't seem to have an impact on my SI scene. The dialog example doesn't print it's message, and so on. The example that creates a cube, does work though.
I also have Eric's ET_renamer in QT, and while it loads just fine, it doesn't rename objects for me.
I get the same thing in both SI2013, and '14, with the v4, and betav5 PyQtForSI plugins.
also, it doesn't seem to matter if I use system python, or SI python, as long as I have PyQt4 in site-packages.
Has anyone come across this? or have any idea what's going on? I'll admit, It's all new to me so i'm having trouble finding the error, especially since it doesn't give me one.
Thanks!

Re: PyQt help: examples load, but do nothing
so I followed the installation instructions here https://github.com/caron/PyQtForSoftimage
it's such a tease being able to design qt layouts that don't do anything.

Re: PyQt help: examples load, but do nothing
can somebody please give me the version python, pyqt, and pyqtforSI plugins they are using?
I can't get anything to work, and can't find old enough installers to try previous versions.

It doesn't log any error?
Qt fails silently, so you will have to check out the script editor.
There are instructions with direct links here:

Re: PyQt help: examples load, but do nothing
yes, it seems very strange. It shows no errors in the plugin manager, and doesn't give me any errors in the script editor log when running the examples, or et_renamerQT. everything runs just fine, But any button I click on, does nothing, and shows me no log.
I'm currerently using
python 2.7.3 (x64)
pywin32 2.17 (x64)
PyQt4 4.10.3
PyQtForSI beta_5
Pure QT examples in python outside of SI work just fine, And quicklauncher seems to work fine, but it doens't create 3d geometry when I click on that. Bone create tools works when clicked. add particle works, etc, etc.

Is my Renamer tool working now for you?

Re: PyQt help: examples load, but do nothing
yes and no. It works during the SI session I load it in, But then If I close/reopen SI, it doesn't load the QT version. If I dive into the plugin manager, and force reload it, it shows up in the 'edit' menu again, and works.

Hmm. Strange. I'll have to take a look at that.
