Oh by the way Chris, as a side note,
if i then was going to use the positions stored through this list method, to
move other items to this location with xform. how can, for example, element two
in the list be isolated and then seperated further int x,y,z eg:
postList = [cmds.pointPosition('pSp
wow thanks guys for all your help. Yep these look far neater than mine. Thanks
muchly.

Whoops, if you are working with selection, us os=True, instead of sl=True.
Otherwise your point order won't necessarily be in order:
selPoints = cmds.ls(flatten=True, orderedSelection=True)
postList = [cmds.pointPosition(x) for x in selPoints]
cmds.curve(n='curve1', d=1, p=postList)
Cheers,
Chris
Hi Sam,
How are you getting the list of vertices in the first place? If you are
selecting points, see my 3rd example.
1. You can also use list comprehension to shorten this a bit more.
vertexList = [330, 136, 58]
postList = [cmds.pointPosition('pSphere1.vtx[%s]'%x) for x in vertexList]
cmds.curv
What about this ?
vertexList = [330, 136, 58]
postList = []
for eachVer in vertexList:
postList.append(cmds.pointPosition('pSphere1.vtx[%s]' % eachVer))
cmds.curve(n='curve1', d=1, p=postList)

Yo,
if you want to create a curve from a set of points that already exist. eg you
want to create a curve from points on a mesh. Is this the cleanest way to do
it?:
Pnt1=cmds.pointPosition('geo.vtx[330]')
Pnt2=cmds.pointPosition('geo.vtx[136]')
Pnt3=cmds.pointPosition('geo.vtx[58]')
cmds.curve
