Wont make a difference to your problem, but, you are using old-style
classes:
class UiSample() :
change to:
class UiSample( object ) :
Its a pet peeve =)
I also assume the loading of the window, whether it works or not,
inside the class you want to use for callback functions, during
initialization, to be a bad idea.
If you want to do that, you could make a classmethod and/or
staticmethod to call the window from the class:
def someclass(object):
@staticmethod
def makeWindow():
mainWindow = cmds.loadUI( uiFile=uiPath, verbose=True )
cmds.showWindow( mainWindow )
But I think some re-thinking the answer to the the five whys is in
order here.
It is obvious that the loadUI knows nothing about the class, so has no
frame of reference to handle anything for the instance i.e. self.*.
