I'm doing something similar to what you said. I tried with the '|' operator but I was getting syntax errors returning through the commandPort. The below command is what I'm sending through the commandPort: import maya.cmds ; import os ; proj_root = os.environ['PROJ_ENV'] ; import sys ; sys.path.append(proj_root + '\\plugins\\python\\maya') ; import pluginTest ; import imp ; imp.reload(pluginTest) ; pluginTest.SaveTest.save_file() ; I'm only calling this function and its supposed to return the value once it's done. But I keep getting None as the response. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
