Like Marcus said, there's no universal way to do this, unfortunately. Another approach worth mentioning is to detect filepaths by using Maya ASCII scene file format and parsing that.
You can also iterate over all attributes of all objects in a scene and detect filepaths, although this can be slow on complex scenes. Regex it's one way to detect a filepath but "if filepath.startswith(y)" and "if x in filepath" are faster approaches. // F -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
