hello, 

i've stored a selection of verts from one mesh. And i've stored all the verts 
from another mesh.

im trying to copy the selection of verts from the first mesh into the list of 
the second mesh. So all the corresponding vert points get implanted into the 
second mesh's vert list.

Then i just want to use setPoints to set all the vert points back onto the 
second mesh. Effectively copying the relative position of the selected verts 
onto the other mesh.

i think i'm very nearly there with this code so far:

########################################################
import maya.api.OpenMaya as om
   

def getPoints(geo):
        
    sel = om.MSelectionList()
    sel.add(geo)
    selObj = sel.getDagPath(0)    
    mesh = om.MFnMesh(selObj)
    
    return mesh, mesh.getPoints()


def implantPtPositions(targetMesh,target_mesh_verts,indices): 

    #cycle through selected verts and copy them into the second mesh verts list 
 
    # HERE HERE HERE
        
    #then use this new list to set the points of the second mesh
    targetMesh.setPoints(newVerts,om.MSpace.kObject)


#store the vert positions for the second mesh
(targetMesh, target_mesh_verts) = getPoints("target")

#store selected vert points
sel_list = om.MGlobal.getActiveSelectionList()
(mDagPath, component) = sel_list.getComponent(0)
comp_fn = om.MFnSingleIndexedComponent(component)
indices = comp_fn.getElements()

#set the mesh difference to the target mesh
implantPtPositions(targetMesh,target_mesh_verts,indices)

########################################################

I just need to know how to cycle through the selected verts and copy them over 
to the second mesh ("target") list. so i can then use that new verts list in 
the setPoints function.

can anyone help me out here,thanks

Sam
