I found the problem from your first question. The second problem is slightly more confusing but maybe my notes will help. I tried to comment up as much as possible with my edits using # EDIT #
http://pastebin.com/WVxfW1FG For the first problem, I found where it was (line 74 of your original code): cmds.setAttr('ikFk_status.notes', new_ikfk_note_list, type ='string') This line was passing a list to your attribute as a string. Maya was happily allowing a list->string conversion to take place, corrupting your data. I changed it to first join it to a string again: note_string = ','.join(new_ikfk_note_list) cmds.setAttr(self.GROUP_NAME, note_string, type ='string') For the second problem, it seems like you already had the proper attributes to reference on your class, and that cmds.getAttr was not appropriate. But I was concerned that you were calling your noFlip_leg() method twice, and then running your useNotesTest() which then only considers the most recent leg? Is that right? You are not saving these curves as you go. Each run replaces the previous info. -- justin On Nov 28, 2012, at 9:38 PM, Berg Jones wrote: > Thanks for looking at it.
