I do have one last question since each polly command takes in multiple commands to settAttr [subdivisionsAxis, subdivisionsHeight, subdivisionsWidth, etc] It won't really help me to settAttr in a generic way.
The lambda (if I understand it correctly): *fn = self.primitives[primitiveType] xform, shape = fn() fn(shape, e=True, sx=30)* Fits perfectly for what I need, just one last question. How can I set the scale property from fn()? I cannot use scale as a flag, it's tossing a error* 'No flag name 'scale'.* If it's also not too much to ask can I confirm the logic of those lines? I am assigning fn to the dictonary and then calling it as a function with the properties of Xform on the 'shape'? Thanks again man!
