hey all, finally diving into MB 2011 and i notice there’s a section in the SDK doc about Qt. Looks like it has to all be C++, but is there a way to use PyQt natively in MB? Being able to code 1 UI for both Maya and MB would be da cheez.
Have you tried this?

First hit on google but I don’t have a MB install on this computer so I can’t try it out atm.
if you’re really a glutton for punishment, you could do what chris evans did and just use qt instead of wxpython:

but that is so outdated now that they have exposed a lot more of the ui stuff that i can’t see a reason that you’d actually want to go that way. i guess it would get you your shared qt gui’s
Yeah i saw both of those solutions earlier on and was hoping there was a more native way, this stuff kinda reminds of the early days of Qt under maya 2008 etc. But looks now like we’re going to forgo 2011 until SP1 anyway so…thanks for the tips though!
