Re: [Openev-discuss] Building UI's in OpenEV with GTK

[Sampson, D. <dsampson@NRCan.gc.ca>]

Thanks for the info.

I have discovered that some of the pyGTK tutorials I can use if I change
the syntaxt fro gtk.Something to GtkSomething

An old pygtk tutorial would be nice that uses this convention.

For the objects I tried doing both help(gtk) and dir(gtk) and could not
find the modules, until I changed the naming convention.

Will the new version of OpenEV use newer python/gtk/pygtk?

If you could forward the old tutorial or give a link that would be
great.

Thanks=20

Maybe it's simply because they are not in the Python path. Try adding
the path to your stuff like this:

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, 'path/to/your/modules')

It may also be necessary to add the path to your pygtk.

You don't need pygtk. It's for pyGTK 2.x

Did you find the old pygtk tutorial? If you cannot, I can send it to
you.

I never used GLADE... I code all the GUI manually and with a lot of
copy/paste :)
