We are starting to refactor a larger python project into subfolders (with __init__.py for packaging).  From:

BigFolder

To:

Bigfolder
    __init__.py
    files...
   /subfolder
        __init__.py
   files...
   /othersubfolder
       __init__.py
   files

What is the best to set at the project level, "Please presume Bigfolder should be scanned for autocomplete information for all files in subfolders"?    I can add a custom python path, but that isn't project relative and is stored in the user file (wpu) rather than the (wpr).  Ideally I want to make it easy for the team to refactor while not losing the excellent source data and autocompletion we presently enjoy or need them to manually add things to the project to get it.

I'm using Python 2.7.13 and Wing IDE 6.0.5-1 (rev f63b60c5c0dd) and I not infrequently have problems using the IDE simply to launch some of my multi-threaded/multi-process python applications.  Specifically, I will launch the application and it will fork a subprocess which, when Wing IDE is attached will never seem to get launched.  This only happens with the debugger, and has it so that 1/2 times I start the application, it gets stuck on launching other processes (status check tools).  The other 50% of the time it starts fine and does everything as expected.  When working on the command line alone it has worked thousands of times (since it gets used quite frequently in the office).

I am not sure if this started happening after one of the patches.  I don't remember encountering it prior to last week, which means it likely wasn't happening then.I'm currently trying disabling Debugger->Processes->Disable Multi-process debugging but I was still able to reproduce.

Are there other tools/options I can use to better control/isolate this?

Thanks, was unaware of shared-attribute-names.   Will try that and it definitely moves us a step forward.  We generally

Just for record, John got in contact with me and sent a patch that resolved the issue.  Hopefully it'll be released to t

Sure thing.  Collected the data and sending.
