Example:
import pymel.core as pm # Create a new template. # if pm.uiTemplate( 'ExampleTemplate', exists=True ): pm.deleteUI( 'ExampleTemplate', uiTemplate=True ) pm.uiTemplate( 'ExampleTemplate' ) # Result: UITemplate(u'ExampleTemplate') # pm.button( defineTemplate='ExampleTemplate', width=100, height=40, align='left' ) pm.frameLayout( defineTemplate='ExampleTemplate', borderVisible=True, labelVisible=False ) # Create a window and apply the template. # window = pm.window() pm.setUITemplate( 'ExampleTemplate', pushTemplate=True ) # Result: u'ExampleTemplate' # pm.columnLayout( rowSpacing=5 ) # Result: ui.ColumnLayout('window1|columnLayout81') # pm.frameLayout() # Result: ui.FrameLayout('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24') # pm.columnLayout() # Result: ui.ColumnLayout('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24|columnLayout82') # pm.button( label='One' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24|columnLayout82|button90') # pm.button( label='Two' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24|columnLayout82|button91') # pm.button( label='Three' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24|columnLayout82|button92') # pm.setParent( '..' ) # Result: u'window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout24' # pm.setParent( '..' ) # Result: u'window1|columnLayout81' # pm.frameLayout() # Result: ui.FrameLayout('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25') # pm.columnLayout() # Result: ui.ColumnLayout('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25|columnLayout83') # pm.button( label='Red' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25|columnLayout83|button93') # pm.button( label='Green' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25|columnLayout83|button94') # pm.button( label='Blue' ) # Result: ui.Button('window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25|columnLayout83|button95') # pm.setParent( '..' ) # Result: u'window1|columnLayout81|frameLayout25' # pm.setParent( '..' ) # Result: u'window1|columnLayout81' # pm.setUITemplate( popTemplate=True ) # Result: u'NONE' # pm.showWindow( window )
