I've been looking for the past few days and have not actually come across anything that deals exactly with what I'm having issues with. I currently have Maya 2011 and when I try to save or execute the Qarl sculpt.mel script, I run into errors. I'd love to save this to the shelf but I keep getting this: // Error: Controls must have a layout. No layout found in window : // or I will get this // Error: Object '' not found. // Now I can run the script, no problems but I'm lazy and I'd rather just hit the button then open the script editor and select the object then execute it. Does anyone have any idea why I can't save the script to the shelf?
