I don't understand your example - what do you mean by "the cmds option under tooltip"?
The script editor's python tabs are all talking to the same python interpreter - there is only one per session. So if you import a module in one tab, it will be there in all of the tabs. -jon On Friday, June 15, 2012 7:39:07 AM UTC-7, Mat wrote: > > Okay I see, > > I think what I am wondering then is if there is a way to clear everything > that was done, such as a global variable.
