This script enables you to use PySide or PyQt4 with Houdini. Main differences from default pyqt_houdini.py are:

• opportunity to have several widgets open at the same time

• automaticly apply Houdini-style ui design

• implemented 3 different modes. It is not required other functions , rather your widget inherits from one of following classes :

  • widget: a simple window opening . Works if the widget is created from QWidget or QMainWindow. Main function showUi returns a pointer to widget object.
  • dialog: opens the window blocks Houdinis window. To do this you need to create a widget that inherits from QDialog. showUi returns result of the dialogue (bool) and a pointer to the dialogue object.
  • menu: If the widget is inherited from QMenu, the menu will open at the current cursor position . showUi returns a pointer to the selected QAction

This script help you to open PySide Widgets in Houdini 14 and 15 as PythonPanel

• Open widget as child of main Houdini Window
• Insert your widget as Houdini Python Panel without .pypanel file
• Fix default Houdini stylesheet examples

• Install PySide or PyQt4 to default Python library or to Houdini python library (for Houdini 13 only)

• Copy hqt.py to PYTHONPATH or PATH. For example:

$HFS/python27/lib/site-packages/hqt.py or $HFS/houdini/python2.7libs/hqt.py

• Execute code:

import hqt
help(hqt)

See hqt_example.py for details.
