[PySide] PySide Newbie Tutorials

[Algis Kabaila]

Hi Long,

Is it OK for me to call you Long? I find lndn confusing. I think that 
rather than using lower case LNDN, i used lower case INDN.  Sorry about 
that!  My given LIthuanian name is much longer, but true to the Australian 
tradition, I have trimmed it down to Al.  Confusing, as Al is a common 
abbreviation for lots of other names, but "life was not meant to be easy".

I thought I gave the link to the PyQt4 tutorial that I am in process to 
bring it to PySide:

http://www.diotavelli.net/PyQtWiki/simple

It does not cover many modules - it uses QtextEdit or QplainTextEdit, 
QMainWindow, QApplication, QFileDialog, QKeySequence, QAction, QIcon, 
QMessageBox, a few QpuxhButtons.  None are "covered" - they are merely 
used.

I think what we really lack is a good tutorial on how to use with PySide 
Qt 4 Assistant, Qt 4 Designer.  Perhaps for Qt4 Assistant a brief mention 
of the vast topic of c++ would be helpful as a facilitator to read Qt 4 
Assistant information.

A deeper discussion of QFileDialog would be welcome, as practically all 
GUI programs need it. 

Any recommendations for a good text editor to edit Python and Pyside 
programs?  Anybody porting a good editor to PySide  in view of Python-IDLE 
not being real friendly with PySide?

Al.

I am in the process of porting the tutorial to PySide and Python 3.x. If 
there are no objections, I would like to post it in the PySide newbie 
tutorial section in a similar style to PySideSimplicissimus:

 
>From wiki/PySideTutorials link to new page PySideSimple
from PySideSimple links to probably 4 separate stage pages with return to 
PySideSimple, which in turn returns to PySideTutorials.

Hi Al, the newbie tutorials are a great idea.  The PySideSimplicissimus 
series were well-written and easy to follow.   


What modules do you plan on covering in these new tutorials?  The 
tutorials we currently have are great but it's not comprehensive in 
covering more Qt modules.  Here's hoping to see more modules covered in 
newer tutorials.   


Thanks!
