Hi All, - I’m following this python forms tutorial on Youtube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-DIXsT7zug], before I spin off my own one for my project - but the code doesn’t seem to be working? - Well, I think I’ve missed a reference file somewhere?
I’ve attached the dyn but here’s the core code.
Forms.dyn (6.5 KB)
> # Enable Python support and load DesignScript library
> import clr
> import System
> clr.AddReference('System.Windows.Forms')
> clr.AddReference('System.Drawing')

>
> # Create a class form
> class CreateWindow(Form):
> def _init_(self)
>
> # Create Form
> self.Name = 'Create Window'
> self.Text = 'Create Window'
> self.Size = Size(500, 150)
> self.CenterToScreen()
>
> self.values = []
>
> #Create label for sheet name
> labelSheetName = Label(Text = "Sheet Name"
> labelSheetName.Parent = self
> labelSheetName.Location = Point(30,20)
>
> #Create label for Sheet number
> labelSheetName = Label(Text = "Sheet Number"
> labelSheetName.Parent = self
> labelSheetName.Location = Point(30,50)

Line 6: from Systems.Windows.Forms import* should be from System.Windows.Forms import *. Just a minor typo–everything should work after that.
Not 100% but i think i corrected the typos.
I still get the message: unexpected token ‘labelSheetName’

if run:

Application.Run(form)
# Assign your output to the OUT variable.
OUT = form.values
Mainly just syntax fixes

Problem is… i keep getting an error:
IronPython.Runtime.UnboundNameException: global name ‘Self’ is not defined
em IronPython.Runtime.Operations.PythonOps.GetVariable(CodeContext context, String name, Boolean isGlobal, Boolean lightThrow)
em IronPython.Compiler.LookupGlobalInstruction.Run(InterpretedFrame frame)
em Microsoft.Scripting.Interpreter.Interpreter.Run(InterpretedFrame frame)
Is there a way to correct this? Thanks!
Oops, looks like I missed one last typo. The ‘Self’ should be lowercase for the ButtonClicked() function.

Ahaa Thanks! Wouldn’t have noticed the * error! Still getting the hang of everything syntax wise
The fix was actually changing Systems to System. I added a space between import and the asterisk as that is what is typically done.
