Hi,

I'm interested in coding some Python additions to Poser. I haven't done much coding in Python but the example scripts and API manual are fairly helpful. But something I can't seem to find (and may be it's obvious) is guidance on how to brand your UI elements to look like they belong in Poser. I see that Poser has PSD files that seem to contain graphics for different parts of its UI. Does anyone use this same process to make their Python interface look like Poser? Or is there a better way?

Also, is there a way to create new Poser Rooms using Python? Or at the very least extensions that dock to the UI.

Thanks.

using a UI Builder such as wxglade or wxformbuilder you can guild your UI on a dockable panel,

then using something like

        man = poser.WxAuiManager()
        root = man.GetManagedWindow()
        ui = UI(root)
        man.AddPane(ui, wx.aui.AuiPaneInfo().Caption('%s v%s' % (APPNAME, VERSION)).CaptionVisible().Float().Resizable().DestroyOnClose().Dockable(True).CloseButton(True))

you can make it dock in poser

Thanks. I'll give it a try and see how it works. :)

It would be useful if the Poser interface colours and character style were available as a template. Or, alternatively, a matching style that separates addons from native.
