Hi,
I have a problem reading the content of lineEdits from an UI.
I have created an UI with QTDesigner with one lineEdit named “myTextField” and one button.
I gave the button the dynamic attribute to run the doIt() function.
import pymel
# load QT user-interface and show it
dialog = pm.loadUI(f='C:\\work\\vnxMaya\\src\\input.ui')
pm.showWindow(dialog)
def doIt():
myT = myT = mc.textField('myTextField', query=True, text=True)
print myT
Now sometime it works and prints the right values that are in the lineEdit-field and if I change the text in the lineEdit it will update correctly.
But most of the time it will print an empty string (’’) and even writing sth different into the lineEdit-field as default or interactive wonn’t change the output. I wrote the same code with mel and python (without pymel) and the results are the same.
Any ideas, why the myT variable doesn’t update?

just wondering, why do you declare the variable in itself twice?
myT = myT = mc.textField('myTextField', query=True, text=True)

why do you have myT twice? and also, how do you declare your event linking in qt designer? personnally i prefer just defining the names in qt and have a function called _defineCallbacks() in my python code to do something like
cmds.button("myButton", edit = True, command = self.doIt)
