Hi everyone, I created a tool using Qt Designer, where it has 3 QLineEdits
that is catered for translateX, translateY and translateZ.
For each QLineEdit, I have created a context menu that allows me to set a
keyframe for one of the above attribute depending on User's choice.
So instead of writing 3 separate functions that catered to each attribute,
I thought of 'recycling' them by using 1 method, but I am having issues
with it as I am not very sure if it will be possible since I am using a
single QAction.
class MyTool(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(MyTool, self).__init__(parent = parent)
# Read off from convert uic file.
self.ui = Ui_MyWidget()
self.ui.setupUi(self)
# translateX
self.ui.xLineEdit.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
self.ui.xLineEdit.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self.custom_menu)
# translateY
self.ui.yLineEdit.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
self.ui.yLineEdit.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self.custom_menu)
# translateZ
self.ui.zLineEdit.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
self.ui.zLineEdit.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self.custom_menu)
self.popMenu = QtGui.QMenu(self)
set_key_action = QtGui.QAction("Set Key at Current Frame", self)
# I am having issues here..
set_key_action.triggered.connect(self.set_key)
self.popMenu.addAction(set_key_action)
...
...
def set_key(self, attr):
# assuming I am trying to effect this locator1 that already exists
in the scene
current_item = "|locator1"
cmds.setKeyframe("{0}.{1}".format(current_item, attr))
def custom_menu(self, point):
self.popMenu.exec_(QtGui.QCursor.pos())
I thought of using `functools` so that my code will be something like :
class MyTool(QtGui.QWidget(:
def __init__(self, parent=None):
...
...
functools.partial(self.set_key, "tx")
def set_key(self, attr):
if attr == "tx":
# setkeyframe to translateX
elif attr == "ty":
# setkeyframe to translateY
Again, because it is only a single QAction and hence I was stumped... Or
will it be better for me to stick in using 3 separate functions instead?
