I tried this in Maya 2018 and PyQt5. Did some editing and I can see gui and work with layers. But its not possible to work with groups, does anybody tried same thing with success?
Also,there is an error in the explenation about the initiation of the script.If you get :
# Error: line 1: ImportError: file <maya console> line 1: No module named slm #
this means that in the line where it is written:
pfPath = r'c:\YourScript\SuperLayerManager'
if you just extracted the currently provided archive,changing the folder path is not enough.You need to add the additional "\src" folder where you actually have the slm.py .So actually the line of the description should had been:
pfPath = r'c:\YourScript\SuperLayerManager\src'
basically you have to write the file path,to the folder that contains slm.py along with the other slm.shit .
For Maya 2014,for Windows users,for not so smart people do the following
Go here ,and download the zip file.The contents of the zip ,copy to "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2014\Python\Lib\site-packages" .Overwrite,close maya if opened.Restart and run the script in the "explenation" by the author under the python tab.Should work.At least on my end.
Just to note that I was tearing off my hair for the past 3 days to figure out how to do it.Either the developer of the script should take care to provide the PyQt folder and the SIP files along with the explenations how to "install" them,inside the script archive(it won't kill you to do so),or should provide a good enough explenation and not links to other people's sites that go dead after 2-4 years.
