Hi again,
Regarding the "getLayerSelection" MEL script. I had a look at the proc
found in: (C:/Program
Files/Autodesk/Maya2019/scripts/startup/layerEditor.mel) and it seems like
it loops through the layer editor and appends the selected layers to an
array which is then returned. This means that we can not get the layers in
the order they were selected. Can this be done someway? (Not super
important but interesting to know)
BR,
Johan
