I have done some testing and it seems, that it might not be Python problem. Well, when I use only pure Python objects, I get really nice description of the object (which means the type). But I am using PyQt and it seems, that when an object is subclassing QObject (or possibly some other class from qt, that can be not derived from QObject) it can only display information about the name of the function. PyQt are python bindings for C++ qt library. Can this be the reason for not displaying type of the object?
