Hello Everyone,
I just got a simple question that I am sure have been asked before however, I could not find that thread. While working in Maya/ Python, what's the best practice or more efficient way of creating a GUI. I heard that PyQt is supposed to be pretty good for that kind of stuff. Does anyone know of a good tutorial to get started with PyQT and Maya.
THANKS

PyQt is great and can work well in Maya providing you use a version that is compiled against the same version of QT that Maya uses.
The problem comes if you plan on releasing your tools, as most users wont have PyQt installed.
Heres a thread on tech artists you might find useful. PyQt and Maya
Hope this helps.
There’s also PySide (http://www.pyside.org/) which is arguably more Pythonic in some areas and has a more permissive license.
