You can work around it a couple of ways: use functools.partial instead of lambdaР”Р‡unctools.partial is an object from the functools module that binds a callable and arguments together. This is a well known issue with the way lambdas work: it's documented here. If anyone could point me in the right direction (such as the scriptJob flags I might need or an example of a setattr getattr setup) or any other solution I am too uneducated to even conceive it would be very appreciated. Because of this, I can't create the scriptJob. However, I cannot find any indication of the event or condition that occurs when a button is pressed in the Maya Python documentation. Or a scriptJob that detects when the button is pressed and passes that specific button's name to the viewFloor function (I could then just pull the digits from the string to get the floor). Some complicated setattr and getattr setup (but I have no idea how that would work)

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to actually accomplish this.

Like I said, I'm aware of why this happens, this code snippet was simply my best shot at creating a snippet of code that would communicate what I'm trying to do. So when numFloors = 4, viewFloor will always have 4 passed to it regardless of which floor button was pressed.

for i in range(0, numFloors):Р”В¬mds.button(btnName, label= btnLabel, w=20, h=20, command=lambda I know why this occurs, the command is not dynamically stored when a button is being created so when a button is clicked, the command uses the most recent instance of the variable, which should be the last floor which is equal to the variable numFloors.

Each time, the button passes the most recent floor rather than the specific floor. The problem I have is that I can't have my viewFloor() function know which button was pressed in order to activate it. For each floor, I want to make a button that changes the height of the camera to look at the floor (this is for buildings). In Autodesk Maya I'm dynamically creating UI based on the number of floors a user wants to make (the variable numFloors is fetched from an intField).
