Hi, my name is Michel and I'm working on a project that uses ROS noetic framework. I want to make a GUI for my project to be able to print sensor data on the interface as well as put some control buttons on the side... So I followed the ros tutorials about creating an rqt plugin package and writing a Python plugin (http://wiki.ros.org/rqt/Tutorials/Cre... + http://wiki.ros.org/rqt/Tutorials/Wri...). In these tutorials, they talk about using a .ui file for the "design" of interface, so I'm wondering if there is a way to: 1) Design the graphical user interface in QT creator (or alternative). 2) export the .ui file from it. 3) and finally import the .ui file in my ros rqt plugin package, run the code, and get the GUI working ?

I am a student and new to the ROS world, trying to learn on my own step by step, so I would appreciate some help or maybe redirect me to some tutorials...

Thanks in advance, Michel
