Help with checker tool script.

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Hello everyone.
I've been using the checker tool script for some time.
and well. All of sudden when I'm going to use it I get the error.
It don't even work on models I have used it with before.

error line 333.41: invalid use of maya object "progressControl"

Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

What "checker" tool?

What does line 333 in your script file say?

I downloaded the script ND and this is line 333

cmds.progressBar(progressControl, edit=True, pr=0)

progressControl is defined as global in show_window() and instantiated with

progressControl = cmds.progressBar(maxValue=20, width=300)

python is not my thing so beyond this I can't say much.
