Profile (hwx.inspire.gui.Gui)

class Profile(name=None, pluginName=None)

Bases: Profile

A profile is the UI state of a client that defines menus, ribbon pages, toolbars and dock windows. There can be multiple profiles for a client, but only one can be active (displayed) at a time. Splitting functionality into profiles can reduce screen clutter allowing the user to focus on specific tasks. Profiles can be hierarchical with a profile having sub-profiles. Sub-profiles can make use of their base profile’s functionality and implement additional functionality as required. There can be two types of profiles, stand-alone and add-on . - A stand-alone profile re-configures the entire UI of a client. - An add-on profile contributes added functionality to an existing profile.
