Challenging! I would want to set the evaluation mode to be ‘off’ if the previous action is/ belongs to my custom tool.
If you want to perform a specific command on undo, you could implement your tool as a Maya Command. from maya import cmdsimport myTool myTool.install() cmds.myTool()# "Doing!"# (press z)# "Undoing.." *myTool.py* from maya import cmdsfrom maya.api import OpenMaya as om class MyTool(om.MPxCommand): def doIt(self, args): print("Doing!") def undoIt(self): print("Undoing..") def redoIt(self): print("Redoing!") def isUndoable(self): # Without this, the above undoIt and redoIt will not be called return True maya_useNewAPI = True def initializePlugin(plugin): om.MFnPlugin(plugin).registerCommand("myTool", MyTool) def uninitializePlugin(plugin): om.MFnPlugin(plugin).deregisterCommand("myTool") def install(): # Load command on `import myTool` cmds.loadPlugin(__file__) If you put e.g. cmds.evaluationManager(mode="off") in the undoIt method, then whenever you undo this particular command, it’ll turn off (which is another word for DG) the evaluation manager.
