Hi everyone, I try to parent an instanciate shape to new transform with API. With command is *cmds.parent(my_shape, ma_new_parent, relative=True, shape=True)*
All parenting function I've found need MObject in argument. But with MObject it's my original shape was parented. It's possible to have N MDagPath for one MObject (First is path of original shape, other is instanciate object). But I don't found solution for reparent instanciate shape.... If any have solution... Here is my code: # Duplicate shape mfn_shape = OpenMaya.MFnDagNode(mo_node) mo_duplicate = mfn_shape.duplicate(True, False) # Retrieve shape. # When duplicate shape, new parent is created and is returned by duplicate function mfn_duplicate = OpenMaya.MFnDagNode(mo_duplicate) dp_duplicate = OpenMaya.MDagPath() mfn_duplicate.getPath(dp_duplicate) dp_duplicate.extendToShape() # print dp_duplicate.fullPathName() # Here long path is valid # Reparent # dp_duplicate.node() give original shape not new shape instance mfn_parent = OpenMaya.MFnDagNode(mo_parent) mfn_parent.addChild(dp_duplicate.node()) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
