How to find VRED's QMainWindow

[christian_aubert]

I've tried the sample code mentioned in this post:

vred shortcuts vs focus - Autodesk Community - VRED

QtCore.QCoreApplication.instance().vrMainWindow.findChildren(QtWidgets.QWidget, 'Render')

but that errors out with:

AttributeError: 'PySide6.QtWidgets.QApplication' object has no attribute 'vrMainWindow'

How can I find VRED's QMainWindow?

Hi,

simply use this function to get VRED's QMainWindow:

vredMainWindow()

Works great.

Closest result when I google "vredMainWindow()" is VRED 2023 Help | vrVredUi | Autodesk

How can I find that in the documentation instead of hitting the forums everytime?

Hi Christian,

I like to use Notepad++ Search, Find in Files... to locate example usages in the VRED example folder(s).
