houdini pytho pyqt4 button event

[eunchae]

 

When I create a button event in Houdini pyqt4, I want to create another event from that selected button.

 

example

 

 

.

.

 

 

def btn1_clicked(self):

 

        camList = []

        

        globj = hou.node('/obj/')

                

        

        for child in globj.children():

            nameOrder = list(child.type().namespaceOrder())

        

            

            if 'gl_Camera_' in nameOrder:

                camList.append(child.path()+'/fx_renderCam')

            

            elif 'cam' in nameOrder:

                camList.append(child.path())

                

        camCount = len(camList)

        

        

        if camCount == 0:

            choiceCamPath = 'None'

            

            

            sh_render = hou.node('/out').createNode('gl_Mantra_','RENDER_shadow')

            sh_render.moveToGoodPosition()

            #sh_render.setColor(hou.color((1,2,3)))

            sh_mat = hou.node('/mat').createNode('shadowmatte')

            sh_mat.moveToGoodPosition()

            

            

            sh_render.parm('camera').set('None')

            hou.ui.displayMessage('no cam.')

            

            

        elif camCount > 1:

            camList.append('Cancel')

            choiceCam = hou.ui.displayMessage('choice cam.', buttons=camList , severity=hou.severityType.Message, close_choice=camCount) <-  If 'cancel' is clicked, the node is not created at the out level and the message window is turned off.

            

            choiceCamPath = camList[choiceCam]

            

       #     if buttons==camCount:

        #       self.close()

               

               

               

            else:                        

                sh_render = hou.node('/out').createNode('gl_Mantra_','RENDER_shadow')

                sh_render.moveToGoodPosition()

                #sh_render.setColor(hou.color((1,2,3)))

                sh_mat = hou.node('/mat').createNode('shadowmatte')

                sh_mat.moveToGoodPosition()

            

            

            

            

                sh_render.parm('camera').set(choiceCamPath)

        

This is part of the script to automatically create the shadow mat I am creating.

 

Thank you for your help.

Please display your code using the insert code, would be much easier to read. 

The hou.ui.displayMessage function returns the id for the button clicked (i.e 0 for the 1st button, 1 for the second...) so I assume you can do something like this :

mybuttons = ["cam1", "cam2", "cam3", "cancel"]

returned_button = hou.ui.displayMessage("my message", buttons = mybuttons, close_choice = (len(my_buttons) -1))

if returned_button == (len(mybuttons) - 1):  #don't forget to subtract one of your list length to get the right index, otherwise you'll get the wrong one
    do something
    do something else
    

 

Cheers,
