Re: [Maya-Python] need help with userSetup.py

[Mahmoodreza Aarabi]

Hey man i suggest that use this method for running your window in maya:

class YourClass():
    ....

def getMainWindow():
    mainWindow = QtGui.QApplication.activeWindow()
    while True:
        lastWin = mainWindow.parent()
        if lastWin:
            mainWindow = lastWin
        else:
            break
    return mainWindow

def show():
        win = YourClass(parent=getMainWindow())
        win.show()

about your menu, just i can say put path of userSetup.py in your PYTHONPATH

Hey Guys,

I am building my own Maya menu through userSetup.py ... 

I have written another python script which is basically just a pySide class. I want to call this script from the menu created in userSetup.py.

There is no main function .. just the class that gets instantiated at the bottom of the script with the following code. The script runs fine when run from the script editor.

Any insight would be awesome.

if __name__ == "__main__":

    

    try:

        cam_ui.deleteLater()

    except:

        pass

    

    cam_ui = smRealCameras()

    

    try:

        cam_ui.create()

        cam_ui.show()

    except:

        cam_ui.deleteLater()

        traceback.print_exc()        

I get this error in the command window when Maya launches ...
