Thanks for the suggestion Marcus. I tested your code and some variations to
check where the code is running, so I had this result:
# this first line which I call cmds, was successfully called
# (but I had to call cmds outside here,
# because it returned undefined if it was inside the setup() function)
import maya.cmds as cmds
def functionA(): # this function is put on memory successfully, but was
not run
print "its NOT printed" # it was not printed
global varA # it was not declared
varA = "A"
def delayMe(): # it was run
print "its printed" # it was printed
global varB # it was declared
varB = "B"
cmds.scriptJob(event = ["SceneOpened", functionA])
def setup(): # it was run
print "its NOT printed" # it was not printed
global varC # it was declared
varC = "C"
cmds.evalDeferred(delayMe)
setup() # it was run
So I think I am gonna put everything from functionA() to delayMe().
Thanks a lot.
