The problem is that each time a window is created, those same ui elements could end up being chk_box2, chk_box3, ... if they previously exist. Also for the optionVar name, it is possible to clash with something else using such a simple name as 'checkbox_state'. So it is best to namespace it with something more unique related to your app name. My suggestion is that you refactor this all into a single class that can save the name of the check box that was returned when you create it. Then you can reuse this name throughout your code instead of assuming it is always called the same thing. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/python_inside_maya/e0ec520e-6b6c-4dae-9946-dfa83cd80b96%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/python_inside_maya/e0ec520e-6b6c-4dae-9946-dfa83cd80b96%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
