Hi,
What it looks like is that you are doing this check:
if 'pipeDock' not in cmds.lsUI(ctl=1) :
And you only create the dock if it doesn't exist. But, closing it doesn't
necessary mean it is deleted. So you have a hidden dock still in Maya. Now
you end up just creating more widgets with no dock that aren't shown. Try
adding something like this:
...
# I needed to add this for subsequent launches to make sure
# the initial parent is set
cmds.setParent(self.parentWidget().objectName())
self.pane = cmds.paneLayout('dockPane', cn='single')
if 'pipeDock' not in cmds.lsUI(ctl=1) :
cmds.dockControl('pipeDock', con=self.pane,
area='right', allowedArea = ['right','left'],
label = "ANMD_Pipeline", w=365)
# No matter what, make sure we make the dock visible
cmds.dockControl('pipeDock', e=True, vis=True)
...
Does that help?
