Thanks.
The import statement no longer throws an error, but the reload
statement does:
def reloadScript():
# Query textScrollList for selected script:
selectedScript = cmds.textScrollList('scriptList', q=1, si=1)[0] #
Items returned as a list
print selectedScript #This works and prints the name of the
hilighted script in the textScrollBox
import sys
name = selectedScript
__import__(name)
reload (name)
# TypeError: reload() argument must be module #
Hopefully I'm close...
