Thank you guys , yes I guess if one has to ask these questions then there is a serious design issue on this one’s node .

( from memory as i dont use maya that much at work anymore) Le lundi 12 mars 2018 22:37:38 UTC-4, justin hidair a écrit : every now and then when changing , disconnecting , connecting an attribute , MPxNode::setDependentsDirty() is called( easily observable) , if there's no connected output no compute is called() . However , 1) What happens if a user change two different attributes at the same time ? ( e.g. move two transforms dag nodes ) , do Maya automatically order the thing and it seems to happen "at the same time " or does it open a black hole ? 2) How would I change two different attributes on a node with its output connected , without calling compute() two times ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
