Hello,
i have been using this method to get the cross product of two vectors:
#####
pt1=cmds.pointPosition('locator1')
pt2=cmds.pointPosition('locator2')
pt3=cmds.pointPosition('locator3')
vec1=pm.dt.vector=(pt2[0]-pt1[0],pt2[1]-pt1[1],pt2[2]-pt1[2])
vec2=pm.dt.vector=(pt3[0]-pt1[0],pt3[1]-pt1[1],pt3[2]-pt1[2])
perpenVec=vec1^vec2
####
with the '^' symbol this process works when i tried it at home on maya 2015 in
python tab of script editor.
I dont know what has changed but when i tried it at work using maya 2016 in
script editor it returns this:
# Error: TypeError: file <maya console> line 14: unsupported operand type(s)
for ^: 'tuple' and 'tuple' #
i don't think i have done anything different in my new script as it seems to
match my other one. Can anyone tell me why the cross product operator ^ doesn't
seem to work here?
thanks alot,
Sam
