Sorry, the 'someFunctionToFillLayout' was the command for the button.
I forgot the "command="
As for refrencing the scroll layout I have no problem doing that I will
just make a 'partial' and include the reference to the layout. But I am not
sure how I can edit a scroll layout, more specifically there is no flags in
the scroll layout that I can use to edit what is inside a scroll layout:
http://download.autodesk.com/us/maya/2011help/CommandsPython/scrollLayout.html
At least what I can see,
I cant use[cmds.scrollLayout('myScrollLayout', e=True, text/label/value =
'blah')]
Is it possible to edit the children elements? without having to instance
them?
