<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to work out how to create custom panels using the panel_widget entry in PropertyGroups. I have created a simple<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">panel using QT designer and an associated class (subclassing pqPropertyGroupWidget). I use addPropertyLink to link the ui to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the paraview filter and then set up the servermanager xml.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This mostly seems to work, the initial values in the ui and the filter are as set in the xml and correctly update when I change them in
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the ui. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, one of the widget in the panel is a combo-box which I specify the entries of in the xml, this remains blank.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Below is a shortened example of the servermanager xml I am using and the addPropertyLink code I have used. Any hints as to where
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am going wrong, or what I might have missed out would be gratefully received.<o:p></o:p></p>
