Try this. pm.menuItem(label="Tool", command=lambda _=None: toolUI.run())
What happens is, the menuItem will try and call your function with an argument (the index of the menu item itself? I forget), and this lambda will simply intercept and discard it. You could have written lambda: toolUI.run() but by having the lambda take an argument you allow the call to be repeated via the g key, like it normally would without the lambda. Another option is to accept the argument in the run() function, something you discard. Yet another option is to make a second “wrapper” function that you use solely for menus. def run(_): return toolUI.run() pm.menuItem(label="Tool", command=run) On 24 November 2017 at 10:54, vilkdage <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > I have a pm.menu in which holds menuItems.
