Hi,

This is an installation issue. It basically cannot find the tik_manager because the python path looks like not initialized.?

Can you double check the installation following the steps described here: https://tik-manager4.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/blender.html

[masqu3rad3]

Did you edit the:

tik_path = "PATH\\TO\\TIK_MANAGER4\\"

line in the tik_4_init.py ?? (line 11) The issue seems there. It is either the wrong path or not edited at all.

[ronnyascencio]

i did it

and is not showing the tik4 menu or something also i copy the pyside 2 in to the blender env but is not working showing the menu of tik4

[masqu3rad3]

The error in your previous message clearly says it cannot import the tik_manager4 module. We cannot expect anything work after that error.

Please make sure the path is correct.

You should be able to 'import tik_manager4' in the python environment before expecting anything to work.

First resolve tht issue. If there are Pyside2 issues, that will come later.

[ronnyascencio]

Hi if you can see the I follow the documentation and now is not showing nothing no error no nothing I'll start a fresh re install and let you know

[ronnyascencio]

Hello so i have this now blender is able to know where the module is but still not showing the menu of tikmanager

[ronnyascencio]

Okay i manage to solve get the tik manager menu now when i hit the tik UI or any other menu in tik manager menu i got this :

I have installed PySide2 do i need PyQt5?

[masqu3rad3]

You can try the PyQt5. This looks like an issue with PySide2 version indeed.

Apologies, for Windows, I provide a frozen version of PySide2 which I know it works but for Linux this requires a bit debugging and relies a bit on technical problem solving.

I'll ask others who runs it on Linux. My main testing environment is Windows.

I reckon this may be one of another your super specific issues. Btw, you probably already realized it but there is a typo in your command that you screenshot 2 messages ago: import tik_manaager4 It should be: import tik_manager4

[ronnyascencio]

well i did a fresh install of all and installed pyside 2 and PyQt5 too and got this :

[masqu3rad3]

It still picks up from PySide2. (see the last line)

How are you installing PyQt? Because you need to install it for the Blender Python interpreter.

[ronnyascencio]

this is the path i think is on the blender python interpreter /home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.1.1/4.1/python/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PyQt5 /home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.1.1/4.1/python/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide2

[masqu3rad3]

Qt.py picks up pyside2 since it has prio and both available. Try to remove PySide2 and you can give another try.

[ronnyascencio]

I removed pyside2 and then open blander and run tik ui and bleder close

[masqu3rad3]

Something is wrong and it is beyond the scope of Tik Manager. Can you bring back the PySide2 and this time copy/paste the error message instead of a screenshot? We can google the results.

You can put the pasted text betweet triple ` chars for code view: like this

[masqu3rad3]

which version of PySide2 did you deployed?

import PySide2
print(PySide2.__version__)

This should return the version.

The one I frozen for Windows is '5.15.2.1'

[ronnyascencio]

Name: PySide2
Version: 5.13.2
Summary: Python bindings for the Qt cross-platform application and UI framework

confirming throgh blener consol

>>> import PySide2
>>> print(PySide2.__version__)
5.13.2

>>> 

[masqu3rad3]

will you be able to update to 5.15.2 to see if its version related?

[ronnyascencio]

Okay what i am thinking now is that is because of the version of blender this is what i have when i tried to install the 5.15.2

[masqu3rad3]

I am not sure. On windows I am testing it on Blender 4.1 too.

[ronnyascencio]

okay so i installed blender 4.0.2 and it runs with 5.15.2

it loads the gui but on black

[masqu3rad3]

ha!

Turns out it goes weirder and weirder. I didnt understand why Blender 4.1 doesnt allow 5.15?

As far as I know Blender is not even coming with a PySide2 module. Aren't you deploying it separately?

[ronnyascencio]

no im deploying within i installed 4.1.0 and has the same problem of 4.1.1 and this versions do not allow 5.15 just the 4.0 alows it because it has python 3.10 and versions 4.1+ is python 3.11

[masqu3rad3]

I am curious how you install PySide2. Via which command etc.

Also, I am very curious how a later version of something doesn't allow a newer version of PySide2. I don't think this is related with Python interpreter. As I said, I am on 4.1 and it is using python 3.11.

But I have no issues with PySide2

[ronnyascencio]

i am installing it from the blender python environment with this command on command line

/home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.1.0/4.1/python/bin/python3.11 -m pip install PySide2 

or if is the 4.0 just changing the comand to :

/home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.0.2/4.0/python/bin/python3.10 -m pip install PySide2
``
3.10 install the 5.15.2
and 
3.11 install the 5.13.2

dont know what is going on hahahaha

[masqu3rad3]

Can you try installing PySide6 ? first remove the PySide2

/home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.0.2/4.0/python/bin/python3.10 -m pip uninstall PySide2

then /home/rascencio/Apps/OpenSource/blender-4.0.2/4.0/python/bin/python3.10 -m pip install PySide6

[ronnyascencio]

Hello sorry gfor the dilay i installed Pyside6 and ir didnt crash but have this

[masqu3rad3]

Yes I installed the Rocky Linux on a virtual machine, got exactly the same issue. No error, messages like its working but doesn't pop up ui. I wanted to eliminate that it might be something VM related, thanks for testing that.

On another note, I tested launching the standalone UI on Rocky with PySide2 and PyQt5, none of them works. Only PySide6 works for the standalone UI.

I am not a Linux guru but this is something probably related with this distro.
