Code:
>> signmessage ('1abc...', 'message')

Yeah two arguments actually. Some Python internals are exposed in this console.

It helps, thanks a lot.

I also have a question about signing message in the console of electrum.
I tried the function
signmessage()
which suggest 3 arguments have to be given. I wonder which 3?
I tried
signmessage(address, message), but return a false response.
I check documentation web of electrum.org, as well as google, without luck no information provided.

Could anyone show how to use signmessage() function in the console?

You can't sign without the private key. So you need to use the offline computer.

Im using electrum as a wallet-  a seedless wallet version ( it can receive bitcoin but not send). To send i need to go to an offline pc that i have and import raw data etc..
How do I send a signed message from my original sending address ? ( Ican see the address in receive tab)
I have right clicked on the address and select 'sign message' then filled in message details- what do i put in the signature section?
When I hit sign I get- 'NoneType' object has no attribute'_getitem_'

Thanks
