[Qgis-developer] quick noob python question

Just an additional question: generally speaking the gui is not accessible from python? We cannot simulate a toolbar button click, or menu item?

Germán, thanks.

Maybe that's what I'll do, but it pains me to duplicate code...

Hi Duarte,

from my experience it is not possible. You can of course re-use the ui file and implement the whole functionality on your own based on the cpp file, basically a translation from C++ to Python. I've done this before and it is not a complex process, but it requires time.

By the way, the folder app of QGIS source code contains QGIS-application-specific code, so I would say you won't find there functionality available in PyQGIS, for that you would have to have a look to the gui and core folders.

Perhaps there are other ways to set the project file programmatically from Python, but I don't know them, sorry.

Regards,

Germán

Using python is it possible to call QgsEmbedLayerDialog and set the project file programmatically (mProjectFileLineEdit)?
