  • Qt Framework
    About Qt Qt is a framework to develop cross-platform applications. Currently, the supported platforms are Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, iOS, Embedded Linux and some others. Genarally, it means that the programmer may develop the code on one platform but compile, link and run it on another platform. But it also means that Qt needs help: to develop software it must cooperate with development tools on specific platforms, for example in case of Windows with Visual Studio. Qt is well-known for its tools for developing graphical user interfaces (GUI) , but it also provides powerful tools for threads, networking and communication (Bluetooth, serial port, web), 3D graphics, multimedia, SQL databases, etc. Qt has its own Integrated Development Environment (IDE): QtCreator. History: 1991: version 1.0 as cross-platform GUI programming toolkit was developed and implemented by TrollTech (Norway). 2005: version 4.0 was a big step ahead but the compatibility with older versions was lost. 2008: TrollTech was sold to Nokia. 2012: Nokia Qt division was sold to Digia (Finland). 2014: Digia transferred the Qt business to Qt Company. The latest Long Term Support (LTS) version is 5.12. Official website: https://www.qt.io/ Installation The link is https://www.qt.io/download. Select the non-commercial and open source version. It may be possible that you must register yourself creating a new passworded account. Select the latest stable release and the C/C++ development system(s) you are going to use. Tip: the Qt installer proposes to store the stuff in folder C:\Qt. To avoid later complications, agree.

  • Pyqt for Autodesk Maya 2015 64Bit
    PyQt for Autodesk Maya 2015 64bit Written by Cyrille Fauvel – Autodesk Developer Network (April 2013) Updated by Vijaya Prakash – Autodesk Developer Network (April 2014) Additional Qt instructions available here - http://around-the-corner.typepad.com/adn/2014/04/building-sip-and-pyqt-for-maya-2015.html Building SIP, and PyQt for Maya 2015 PyQt [http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk] is a python binding to the Qt library. Because Maya uses Qt internally, you can use the PyQt modules in Maya python scripts to create custom UI. PyQt does not have the same licensing as Maya, Qt, or Python. Please consult the PyQt website for information about licensing for PyQt. Download PyQt: http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Downloads/PyQt4/ Download SIP: http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/sip/download The following are instructions for building a copy of the PyQt modules that have been known to work with Maya. Maya 2015 uses Qt4.8.5 which is binary compatible with the latest version of PyQt - 4.10.4 / SIP - 4.15.5 (at time of writing, April 2014). However, you do not have to use these versions if you prefer using an older version, all you need is to use a version compatible with Qt4.8.5. Note that it’s important to use the Maya modified version of the Qt source code. A copy of the customized Qt 4.8.5 source is available from Autodesk's Open Source web-site (http://www.autodesk.com/lgplsource) and includes text files describing how to configure, build and install Qt for each platform supported by Maya.

  • Guis: Coming to Uncommon Goods Near You
    GUIs: Coming to Uncommon Goods Near You Jason Kridner With the “smartphone effect”, proliferating in many applications outside the consumer space, it’s become apparent that slick graphical user interfaces (GUIs) sell. In this session, you’ll learn how to quickly develop a GUI for your product using Linux. Learn about cool tools such as Qt Creator and the entire Qt toolset. Soon, your basic washing machine control panel could be just as excitiing as2/24/12 a smartphone! 1 Agenda • Why fancy GUIs everywhere? – Which one to choose? • Introduction to QT – Hello World – The QT Framework • Exploring the examples/demos The pinch effect - user demand • QNX’s Andy Gryc, senior product marketing manager for QNX Software Systems says – He’s seen a trained engineer “forget” how to operate an oscilloscope and attempt to use the pinch- and-spread gesture to zoom into a scope trace. • Beckhoff’s McAtee takes it further. – “[If you] combine [multi-touch] functionality with wide format 24-in. screens, device vendors and machine designers would be able to remove all physical push buttons from the panel, allowing the user to manage every machine function directly on the touchscreen. This would permit easy scrolling and zooming through dashboards and menus, beyond the capabilities of conventional touchscreen technology.” • Fujitsu’s Bruce DeVisser, product marketing manager for touch input – technologies have crossed over into the industrial space. “Haptic feedback, embodied as a vibration of the touch panel (like how a cell phone vibrates), is very useful for noisy industrial environments”. A display in black mode (power-saving or screen-saver state) is unappealing to [consumer] users if it is covered with fingerprints.
