[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PyQt PyQt] is a python module that allows python applications to create, access and modify [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_(toolkit) Qt] applications. You can use it for example to create your own Qt programs in python, or to access and modify the interface of a running qt application, like FreeCAD. |
||
By using the PyQt module from inside FreeCAD, you have therefore full control over its interface. You can for example: |
|||
Quindi, usando il modulo PyQt all'interno di FreeCAD, si ha il controllo completo della sua interfaccia. È possibile ad esempio: |
|||
* Add your own panels, widgets and toolbars |
|||
* Aggiungere propri pannelli, widget e barre degli strumenti |
|||
* Add or hide elements to existing panels |
|||
* Aggiungere o nascondere gli elementi nei pannelli già esistenti |
|||
* Change, redirect or add connections between all those elements |
|||
* Modificare, reindirizzare o aggiungere connessioni tra tutti questi elementi |
|||

PyQt has an extensive [http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/classes.html API documentation], and there are many tutorials on the net to teach you how it works. |
||
Se si desidera lavorare sull'interfaccia di FreeCAD, la prima cosa da fare è creare un riferimento alla finestra principale di FreeCAD: |
|||
If you want to work on the FreeCAD interface, the very first thing to do is create a reference to the FreeCAD main window: |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
import sys |
import sys |
||
from PyQt4 import QtGui |
from PyQt4 import QtGui |
||
app = QtGui.qApp |
app = QtGui.qApp |
||
mw = app.activeWindow() |
mw = app.activeWindow() |
||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
Then, you can for example browse through all the widgets of the interface: |
|||
In seguito, è possibile ad esempio sfogliare tutti i widget dell'interfaccia: |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
for child in mw.children(): |
for child in mw.children(): |
||
print 'widget name = ', child.objectName(), ', widget type = ', child |
print 'widget name = ', child.objectName(), ', widget type = ', child |
||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
The widgets in a Qt interface are usually nested into "containers" widgets, so the children of our main window can themselves contain other children. Depending on the widget type, there are a lot of things you can do. Check the API documentation to see what is possible. |
|||
Adding a new widget, for example a dockWidget (which can be placed in one of FreeCAD's side panels) is easy: |
|||
Di solito, in una interfaccia Qt, i widget sono annidati in widget "contenitori", in questo modo i figli della finestra principale possono contenere altri figli. Secondo il tipo di widget, si possono fare un sacco di cose. Controllare la documentazione delle API per vedere quello che è possibile fare. |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
Per aggiungere un nuovo widget, ad esempio un dockWidget (che può essere posizionato in uno dei pannelli laterali di FreeCAD), fare semplicemente: |
|||
myWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() |
myWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() |
||
mw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myWidget) |
mw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myWidget) |
||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
You could then add stuff directly to your widget: |
|||
In seguito, si può continuare e aggiungere altre cose direttamente al proprio widget: |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget") |
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget") |
||
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100)) # sets size of the widget |
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100)) # sets size of the widget |
||
Line 38: | Line 37: | ||
label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size |
label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size |
||
label.setObjectName("myLabel") # sets its name, so it can be found by name |
label.setObjectName("myLabel") # sets its name, so it can be found by name |
||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
But a preferred method is to create a UI object which will do all of the setup of your widget at once. The big advantage is that such an UI object can be [[Dialog creation|created graphically]] with the Qt Designer program. A typical object generated by Qt Designer is like this: |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
class myWidget_Ui(object): |
class myWidget_Ui(object): |
||
def setupUi(self, myWidget): |
def setupUi(self, myWidget): |
||
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget") |
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget") |
||
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100 |
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100).expandedTo(myWidget.minimumSizeHint())) # sets size of the widget |
||
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(myWidget) # creates a label |
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(myWidget) # creates a label |
||
Line 53: | Line 52: | ||
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
||
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
To use it, you just need to apply it to your freshly created widget like this: |
|||
Per usarlo, basta applicarlo al pannello (widget) appena creato in questo modo: |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
myNewFreeCADWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() # create a new dckwidget |
myNewFreeCADWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() # create a new dckwidget |
||
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui = myWidget_Ui() # load the Ui script |
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui = myWidget_Ui() # load the Ui script |
||
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui.setupUi(myNewFreeCADWidget) # setup the ui |
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui.setupUi(myNewFreeCADWidget) # setup the ui |
||
FCmw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myNewFreeCADWidget) # add the widget to the main window |
FCmw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myNewFreeCADWidget) # add the widget to the main window |

Recently, FreeCAD has switched internally to use PySide instead of PyQt. That change was mainly done because of the licenses, PySide having an LGPL license which is more compatible with FreeeCAD. Other than that, PySide works exactly the same way as PyQt, and in FreeCAD you can usually use any of them, as you prefer. If you choose to use PySide, just replace all "PyQt" in the example code below with "PySide".
Differences Between PySide and PyQt
PyQt is a python module that allows python applications to create, access and modify Qt applications. You can use it for example to create your own Qt programs in python, or to access and modify the interface of a running qt application, like FreeCAD.
By using the PyQt module from inside FreeCAD, you have therefore full control over its interface. You can for example:
- Add your own panels, widgets and toolbars
- Add or hide elements to existing panels
- Change, redirect or add connections between all those elements
PyQt has an extensive API documentation, and there are many tutorials on the net to teach you how it works.
If you want to work on the FreeCAD interface, the very first thing to do is create a reference to the FreeCAD main window:
import sys
from PyQt4 import QtGui
app = QtGui.qApp
mw = app.activeWindow()
Then, you can for example browse through all the widgets of the interface:
for child in mw.children():
print 'widget name = ', child.objectName(), ', widget type = ', child
The widgets in a Qt interface are usually nested into "containers" widgets, so the children of our main window can themselves contain other children. Depending on the widget type, there are a lot of things you can do. Check the API documentation to see what is possible.
Adding a new widget, for example a dockWidget (which can be placed in one of FreeCAD's side panels) is easy:
myWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget()
mw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myWidget)
You could then add stuff directly to your widget:
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget")
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100)) # sets size of the widget
label = QtGui.QLabel("Hello World", myWidget) # creates a label
label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size
label.setObjectName("myLabel") # sets its name, so it can be found by name
But a preferred method is to create a UI object which will do all of the setup of your widget at once. The big advantage is that such an UI object can be created graphically with the Qt Designer program. A typical object generated by Qt Designer is like this:
class myWidget_Ui(object):
def setupUi(self, myWidget):
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget")
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(300,100).expandedTo(myWidget.minimumSizeHint())) # sets size of the widget
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(myWidget) # creates a label
self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size
self.label.setObjectName("label") # sets its name, so it can be found by name
def retranslateUi(self, draftToolbar): # built-in QT function that manages translations of widgets
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
To use it, you just need to apply it to your freshly created widget like this:
myNewFreeCADWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() # create a new dckwidget
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui = myWidget_Ui() # load the Ui script
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui.setupUi(myNewFreeCADWidget) # setup the ui
FCmw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myNewFreeCADWidget) # add the widget to the main window
