Hey all,
Been lurking here for a long time but just now picking up some Maya
programming for some rigging tools here at work. I've been a long time
Softimage user and am used to the OM they have there so it's a bit of an
uphill battle trying to make heads or tails of some of the stuff in
OpenMaya.
Is this the simplest way to get to the shape node after it's created from
the transform node?
# Sample Python
import maya.OpenMaya as om
dagModifier = om.MDagModifier()
locator = dagModifier.createNode('transform')
dagModifier.renameNode(locator, "myLocator")
dagModifier.createNode('locator', locator) # create locator shape under
transform
dagModifier.doIt()
locatorDagPath = om.MDagPath()
locatorDag = om.MFnDagNode(locator)
locatorDag.getPath(locatorDagPath)
locatorDagPath.extendToShape()
shapeDag = om.MFnDagNode()
shapeDag.setObject(locatorDagPath.node())
shapeNode = om.MObject()
shapeNode = locatorDagPath.node()
dagModifier.renameNode(shapeNode, "myLocatorShape")
dagModifier.doIt()
