Hi Joe, that works well, thank you, /but/, can I squeeze in a
addition ? ;-)
Can choose where to save & the resolution from 1024 to max 8192 res ?

Hi Joe, before testing your code, I agree with you, the code
is best run in MEL before you even brought up that concern I
was thinking, it doesn't make sense, and if someone in the
group brought it to the surface, it wouldn't surprise me.
The reason; the MEL code has to be wrapped in python code,
otherwise the other script, did I mention it was part of
another script, regardless if I did or didn't, it can't read
MEL individually, that is why, not I wanted to, or felt the
desire to ;-) instead I had to wrap it in python. ;-)
Let me give your code a run ;-)

Questioning the code aside:
The immediate issue you're running into seems to be that Python
doesn't support multi-line strings which are just denoted with a
single quotation mark.
If you're going for multi-line string s, you'll need to use the
multi-line string quote-- """String here""" -- Note the
triple quotations.
With that said, I agree with Marcus here.
First, why are we calling this script from Python? It seems
like it
might be better suited to be entirely in MEL. I've run into a
number
of situations where I need to call MEL code from my Python
scripts,
but this looks like primarily coding in MEL and then forcing
it into
Python.
You could do the same thing more like this:
# Avoid importing under other names
import maya.mel as mel
uMin = -1
uMax = 1
vMin = -1
vMax = 1
for i in range(uMin, uMax - uMin):
for j in range(uMin, uMax - uMin):
path = r"c:\\5\\uvImage_u{0}_v{1}.jpg".format(i+1, j+1)
UVCmd = r'uvSnapshot -o -aa -uMin {0} -uMax {1} -
vMin {2}
-vMax {3} -n "{4 }" -xr 4096 -yr 4096 -ff jpg;'
UVCmd = UVCmd.format(i, i+1, j, j+1, path)
mel.eval(UVCmd)
It's best if you're going to use Python to use it all the way
through,
with independent MEL commands where there is no other option
(which,
to be fair, happens all too often in Maya).
Let me know if you have questions on that code, I utilized a few
string formatters that I find make my code easier to read,
but can be
a bit confusing if you're not used to them.
Hope that helps!

Please paste an example of your actual code. A big pink long
probably means you have a python syntax error. The Mel code
should be in an actual string so it should syntax
highlight like
a string.

Correct ?
Yep. Where <MEL script> is a string.
Converters are fine for some, I rather
understand the
guts :)
