How to use an UI Dialog created by Qt Designer

peter_2762644 · May 2020

I want to use Qt-Designer, which is part of DAZ-Studio, but unfortunately I'm not able to show the dialog-widget. Please see this simple code fragment:

var loader = new DzUiLoader();var dialog = new DzDialog();var wgt    = loader.load("X:/.../test.ui", dialog);dialog.exec();

This shows an empty dialog.

The second way I've found is:

var popup = new DzUIPopUpWgt(dialog);

brings the exception: TypeError: no constructor for DzUIPopUpWgt

Altough a constructor is documented: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/object_index/uipopupwgt_dz

Can anyone help me with a little piece of code please ;-)

Okay, solved!

I have to use the "proper" templete in Qt-Designer :-)

Hi Peter,

I'd like to get started making a script for Daz and see references to QT Designer in the daz scripting docs. But when I go to qt.io site it looks like you have to spend $4k??? Since you are using it do you mind confirming if this is correct? I was hoping it would be some kind of open source/free tool, or at minimum something more in the acceptable range of cost.

Any info you could provide on how to get the tool would be appreciated!

thanks

Peter, nevermind that comment I just left - when I read "which is part of daz studio" from your post, I assumed you meant the DzUiLoader was part of Daz and I needed to go get the QT Designer program somewhere else. I just found the app in my Daz Studio folder and feel like an idiot... :-P
