Re: PyQtForSoftimage: typing in an 'editable' combobox seems to be passed on to Softimage shortcuts?

Yep, I can confirm it isnt working even with strong focus. Here's a snippet anyone can run from script editor to test it out... from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore import sip si = Application sianchor = sip.wrapinstance(long(si.getQtSoftimageAnchor()), QtGui.QWidget) dialog = QtGui.QMainWindow(sianch

Re: Difference between a force and a velocity ?

Actually speed = distance-traveled/time, velocity is more like position / time (it's a vector). On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 11:13 AM, César Sáez wrote: > They are completely different concepts, in short: > > Force = mass * acceleration > > Acceleration = Velocity / time >

They are completely different concepts, in short: Force = mass * acceleration Acceleration = Velocity / time Velocity = distance-traveled / time

Re: PyQt for Softimage: Periodic error calling Application.getQtSoftimageAnchor()

A couple of things to check: - Are you sure PyQtForSoftimage plugin is loaded before your plugin? - *Application.Plugins( 'MD_PublishRenderLayers_Qt' ).OriginPath*is a valid path?* ** - whatever/MD_PublishRenderLayers_UI.ui* file exist?

Re: Howto: Python script referencing external file? (possibly noobish)

I wrapped the sipyutils with my own shortcut module, this way you have consistent variable names and complete control to add nor edit your stuff.

Re: Howto: Python script referencing external file? (possibly noobish)

As far as the path is in your PYTHONPATH or appended to the sys.path you should be able to import the module, Softimage doesn't have any special requirement AFAIK (standard python stuff). http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path

Re: PyQt Softimage Linux?

Thanks Steven :) I've been using your (and Jo) implementation a lot lately and it works great. The only problem is with keystrokes not being well interpreted in non-US keyboards (letters and numbers are good, the problem comes with symbols), Softimage's fault I guess. On Wed, Jan 23, 2013 at 8:17

That happens too! A centralized launcher and some coding standards helps a lot, otherwise everything will be a chaos sooner than later. On Wed, Jan 16, 2013 at 1:25 AM, Sebastian Kowalski wrote: > I've wrote so many small tools, that i need a pipeline just for organizing > them ;) > >

Re: Sublime definitions for Softimage

SublimeCodeIntel does a great job autocompleting python modules and import statements (via introspoction, works with your own modules too), it's not softimage specific but helps alot. Another cool package is the SublimeLinter, it highlight potential errors in your code (IDE-like). I have no idea h

Please, leave Softimage's future to someone who can actually do something about it, we don't have the proper context to know what is happening and what is coming. We've been through this, not again!
