Looking at your example code, there are a couple of things missing.
- You don't set a parent for your QMainWindow. Without a parent, it doesn't
have any hierarchy in the Maya UI. You've noted that you tried setting a
parent, but maybe it didn't work? Can we see the code you tried?
- You don't give either of your objects objectNames.
With no parent and no objectName, fullName will definitely return empty.
