Varomix Monday Trix - HOUDINI - Python Project Manager Series Chapter 02

Welcome to Varomix Monday Trix, in this series I'll show you tricks that I've learned along the way in my career, some are really simple but I think all of them will be useful.

In this video we will learn how to create a Project Manager using Python inside one of the amazing python panels Houdini provides, we'll create this from scratch and interactively so you can participate in the final design of the tool.

In this Chapter we'll prepare or code externally so it works better with best practices.

    I just do what you say. But "from PySide2 import QtWidgets" is still wrong . My PyCharm can't identify it.What can I do to solve this problem.

      Hi,
      did you added the Houdini path I set at minute 10:20, you need that to tell PyCharm where to find that library, let me know

        Thanx . I did it. So "import hou" is right . And I create a *.py at C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 16.0.600\houdini\python2.7libs\hutil.
        "from PySide2 import QtWidgets" has no problem in it.
        But I type " QtWidgets. " my PyCharm didn't give any QtWidgets's suggestion like you did at 13:58(like QVBoxLayout , QWidget).It just give if,main,not,print....

          I was just trying this on Windows and yeah, for some reason is not auto-completing or suggesting what it should
          I'll take a look and see if I can fix it.
          will let you know

          thanks
