Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

Ok, so the filePathEditor command does allow you to retrieve the attribute belonging to a certain file. So I assume it would also allow you to query the unresolved path? from maya import cmds def grouper(iterable, n, fillvalue=None): "Collect data into fixed-length chunks or blocks" # g

[Maya-Python] Querying colorset indices

Heya, I recently made a cleanup script that would go through a bunch of specific things including UVsets and colorsets and remove any extraneous ones on selected meshes. While I wrote a working function to check / remove colorsets, can't help but feel there was a better way. With UVsets I c

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

`file -q -list` will return all the file reference paths and string attributes marked as usedAsFilename. So it saves you from having to iterate over the nodes in the scene yourself. This is how Maya gets a list of files for the File > Archive Scene feature. You can also access this functionalit

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

Also, you can use listAttr to list attrs that are usedAsFilename. Command only returns attribute name but then you can loop through getting all objects with attribute name and querying it and checking the path. you can also list string attributes if you want to take it further, you would have to tu

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

So if you want the texture file nodes in the scene, you can get them from pymel with: import pymel.core as pm file_nodes = pm.ls(type=pm.nt.File) file_paths = [fyle.fileTextureName.get() for fyle in file_nodes] with cmds: import maya.cmds as cmds file_nodes = cmds.ls(type='file') file_paths = [c

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

Oh, you're just talking about Maya references? I thought you wanted to find e.g. ies files or vrmesh files etc and other files which are "referenced" (without being a "Maya reference"). tis 11 aug 2015 kl. 19:18 skrev Fredrik Averpil : > I ended up making a dictionary of nodes and attributes and

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

I ended up making a dictionary of nodes and attributes and query these "manually" since there is (to my understanding) no way to really just find all filepaths existing in some shape or form in the scene. Just think about plugins. You can never know if the developer properly registered the attribu

Re: [Maya-Python] List referenced files

I would look at the referenceQuery cmd. this will let you query the unresolved path as well as use this command to tell if a particular node is referenced or not. I think this command is exactly what you need. On Tue, Aug 11, 2015 at 10:11 AM, Arvid Schneider wrote: > I did a similiar thing..but

I did a similiar thing..but it wasnt a one function solution. Its tool which catches all paths ( files ) and copies them to a given directory and remaps all the paths to the new set directory. To get it to work though, I created a dictionary with nodeType and path attribute eg. file:filepath etc. A
