howdy,
I'm fighting against what seems to be a bug, I'd like to know if anyone
else faced the same thing before
Custom node, with a mesh attribute (*MFnMeshData::kMesh*), storable.
I connect a mesh plug to it in maya, refresh, disconnect, and save as **.ma*
If I open my scene with a text editor, I get the right information into the
mesh attribute, that is, vertices, edges, etc.... I also get other keys
that I don't know: *"left"*, *"bottom"*, *"right"*, and I have no idea what
they do.
Now my problem is that some of my custom nodes, when I save, get written
incorrectly. Therefore, when I re-open my scene, maya fails to set my mesh
attribute back to what it was when I saved. Specifically, with a correct
file, I have something like
* setAttr "myAttributeName" [...]*
* "left" 0*
* "bottom" 0*
*etc...*
and with a *corrupted* file, I just have the key, and no value:
* setAttr "myAttributeName" [...]*
* "left"*
* "bottom"*
*etc...*
So from there, I have 2 questions:
- what on earth are those "left" "bottom" "right" ... keys/values inside
a mesh attribute and what are they used for?
- what could cause maya to not write my mesh attribute correctly when I
save my scene?
The problem seems to exist only with *.ma, not *.mb
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you
