UI Related
These MaxPlus APIs are used to work with PySide2 UIs, attaching (parenting) a widget to the 3ds Max main window, get the 3ds Max main window as as QWidget, and load Qt UI files.
| MaxPlus | pymxs Equivalent |
|---|---|
MaxPlusExtend.AttachQWidgetToMax() |
Set parent of widget - example below |
MaxPlusExtend.GetQMaxMainWindow() |
pymxs.runtime.windows.getMAXHWND() - example below |
MaxPlusExtend.LoadUiType() |
PySide2 QUiLoader |
AttachQWidgetToMax() Example
MaxPlus:
w = QtGui.QWidget()
MaxPlus.AttachQWidgetToMax(w)pymxs Equivalent:
max_win = QWidget.find(pymxs.runtime.windows.getMAXHWND())
w = QDialog(parent=max_win)GetQMaxMainWindow() Example
MaxPlus:
MaxPlus.GetQMaxMainWindow()
pymxs Equivalent:
from PySide2.QtWidgets import QWidget, QMainWindow
import shiboken2
from pymxs import runtime as rt
appQWidget = QWidget.find(rt.windows.getMAXHWND())
appQMainWindow = shiboken2.wrapInstance(shiboken2.getCppPointer(main_window_widget)[0], QMainWindow)ActionManager

obj.ParameterBlock.Radius.Value = 10.0
obj.ParameterBlock.Height.Value = 30.0
node = MaxPlus.Factory.CreateNode(obj)In pymxs, this is performed in one line of code in the Cylinder:GeometryClass constructor:
node = pymxs.runtime.cylinder(radius=10.0,height=30.0)FileManager
