hi chad,
i try the customClasses technique but i have a problem i can test if a
attribute exist in the callback fonction
but not get his value.
code :
from pymel import *
class LegJoint(Joint):
""" this is an example of how to create your own subdivisions of
existing nodes"""
def kick(self):
print "kicking"
class JawJoint(Joint):
""" this is an example of how to create your own subdivisions of
existing nodes"""
def munch(self):
print "munching"
def legJointCallback( fn, name ):
"""if the desired attribute exists, then we're a LegJoint!"""
try:
print "testing if this is a leg joint"
# this function fails if the attribute does not exist, so we
have to try/except it.
return fn.hasAttribute( 'jointType_leg' )
except: pass
return False
def jawJointCallback( fn, name ):
"""if the desired attribute exists, then we're a LegJoint!"""
try:
# this function fails if the attribute does not exist, so we
have to try/except it.
print "testing if this is a jaw joint"
return fn.jointType_jaw.get() == 'yes'
except: pass
return False
LegJoint.registerVirtualSubClass( legJointCallback,
nameRequired=False )
JawJoint.registerVirtualSubClass( jawJointCallback,
nameRequired=False )
def testJoint():
joint()
joint()
j1 = joint()
j2 = joint()
j1.addAttr( 'jointType_leg' )
j2.addAttr( 'jointType_jaw',dt='string' )
j2.jointType_jaw.set('yes')
# now list the joints and see which ones are our special joints
res = ls(type='joint')
for x in res:
if isinstance(x, LegJoint ):
x.kick()
elif isinstance(x, JawJoint ):
x.munch()
sorry for my english and thank you for the fantastic work you are
doing.
