I've been playing around with adding menus to the UI and I've looked into
doing it with maya.cmds, pymel and the Qt module itself.
This is not really a major issue, but I'd still like to understand how i
could delete a menu from Maya's main window bar(File, Edit, Select, Create,
etc.) by using the label name.
I created a menu item of my own and accidentally forgot to give it a name
and to store the return in a variable. All it has is a label.
Besides using the Qt module I'm not sure how to get the menuitems from
either PyMEL or maya.cmds.
For instance:
from PySide2 import QtWidgets, QtCore
import shiboken2
import maya.OpenMayaUI as omui
winPtr = omui.MQtUtil.mainWindow()
mayaWindow = shiboken2.wrapInstance(int(winPtr), QtWidgets.QWidget)
#we got the MayaWindow pointer, now let's grab the QMenubar
menubar = ""
for child in mayaWindow.children():
if isinstance(child, PySide2.QtWidgets.QMenuBar):
menubar = child
itemToDel = ''
#then from this main menu bar, get the TopMenu Titles
for topmenu in menubar.actions():
if topmenu.isVisible():
if topmenu.text()=='My Menu':
itemToDel = topmenu
break
So now I have the menu item in a QAction object. But unsure how I can use
that to delete it.
Also is it good procedure to delete the submenus before deleting the main
menu item?
Does it matter?
