Hi Luke, this is very useful.
I save out all the edits to an editMB file before cleaning it. And when I
save out that file as well as when I re-apply it later down the road, Maya
crashes sporadically. Currently, I’m not unloading the reference when
performing the edits export and the edits import. Perhaps that could be why
it’s crashing on me? (it’s not always crashing)
Your pymel examples looks really clean. I managed to do it without pymel,
but it’s a bit more cumbersome. I wonder if pymel is a more stable way of
dealing with this?
Here’s what I did to remove all edits (on a loaded reference):
# Remove all edits
ref = 'myrefRN'
nodes = cmds.referenceQuery( ref, editNodes=True )
attr_types = cmds.referenceQuery( ref, editAttrs=True )
for node in nodes:
for attr_type in attr_types:
for edit_command in ['addAttr', 'connectAttr',
'deleteAttr', 'disconnectAttr', 'parent', 'setAttr', 'lock',
'unlock']:
cmds.referenceEdit( node+'.'+attr_type,
failedEdits=True, successfulEdits=True, removeEdits=True,
editCommand=edit_command)
