I was wondering if anyone has used multiple scriptJobs to alter
attributes on a control
to give allow presets for settings on a control? this is my first time
really integrating scriptNodes and
scriptJobs so I may be approaching this wrong.
Below is some code that would control on attribute I named
'Jiggle_Presets' which is an enum attribute
that I use to fire the scriptJob.
My current problem is that I need to alter several enums to control
presets for 6 other regions of the rig. Currently I'm storing these in
scriptNodes that evaluate when the rig file opens. However the
presetValues
don't seem to update their specific values listed in their
corresponding scriptNode. So one set of presetValues
overrides and updates all the attributes for all the scriptNodes,
instead of respecting their unique values listed in their scriptNode
import maya.cmds as mc
presetValues = {"No Jiggle":[0, 2], "Fast Run":[0.2, 2.5],"Medium
Walk":[0.5, 5],
"Slow Movement":[1, 10] }
presets = ["No Jiggle","Fast Run", "Medium Walk", "Slow Movement"]
attributesList = ["Jiggle", "Dampen"]
def createScriptJob():
name = getNameSpace()
namespace = name[0].rstrip('RN')
if namespace == 'None':
scriptJob =
mc.scriptJob( ac=["Muscles_0_CON.Jiggle_Presets","setValues()"])
else:
print "namespace found"
scriptJob = mc.scriptJob( ac=[str(namespace)
+':'+"Muscles_0_CON.Jiggle_Presets","setValues()"])
def getNameSpace():
namespace = []
many = []
try:
refNodes = mc.ls(type='reference')
for ref in refNodes:
if ref.find('_rig_') == -1:
namespace = 'None'
else:
namespace = ref.split(':')
many.append(namespace)
print namespace
except:
print 'no reference nodes'
return namespace
#curName = getNameSpace()
#namespace = curName[0].rstrip('RN')
def getEnumValue():
name = whatIsSelected()[0]
val = mc.getAttr(name+".Jiggle_Presets")
return val
#getVal = getEnumValue()
#mc.scriptJob(attributeChange=['Jiggle_Presets', 'whatIsSelected()'])
#mc.scriptJob(attributeChange=['Jiggle_Presets', 'whatIsSelected()'])
def whatIsSelected():
sel = mc.ls(sl=1)
if sel[0].find(':') == True:
name = sel.split(':')
name = name[0]
else:
name = sel
return name
#selected = whatIsSelected()[0]
def setValues():
indicie = 0
enum = getEnumValue()
name = whatIsSelected()[0]
if enum != 0:
indicie = enum
preset = presets[indicie]
selectedPreset = presets[enum]
if selectedPreset in presetValues:
pValues=[]
pValues.append(presetValues[selectedPreset][0])
pValues.append(presetValues[selectedPreset][1])
#pValues.append(presetValues[selectedPreset][2])
for i in range(len(attributesList)):
mc.setAttr(name + '.' + attributesList[i],pValues[i])
createScriptJob()
