RE: [Maya-Python] Basic question about pyMel

Methods do no need to reference the module.

pm.ls(type='camera')[0].getParent().getTranslation().z

Hi all,

I understand that if I import pyMel into Maya like this:

from pymel.core import *

I can then build up pyMel functions like this:

ls(type='camera')[0].getParent().getTranslation().z

However if I import pyMel with a name space instead:

import pymel.core as pm

Would the pyMel methods above all need prefixing with pm like this?

pm.ls(type='camera')[0].pm.getParent().pm.getTranslation().z

The above code doesn't work, so how should it be written if I import pymel as pm?

Thanks a lot.
