Hi everyone, I had this weird issue with the use of MEventMessage for
`timeChanged`
What I am trying to achieve is - When User scrubs the time slider, eg. from
F1 to F10, the `timeChanged` event that I have created, will be picked up
and returning me the current attribute of that frame.
Eg. I have created an imagePlane, set keyframe at F1 on its "Image center
X" with the value of 1 and another keyframe at F10, with a value of 10.
As I create the following event:
def time_changed(*args, **kwargs):
node = '|imagePlane1'
node_shape = cmds.listRelatives(node, shapes=True, f=True)[0]
axes_dict = {}
for axis in ["X", "Y", "Z"]:
value = cmds.getAttr("{0}.imageCenter{1}".format(node_shape, axis))
axes_dict[axis] = value
print axes_dict
time_changed_event = OM.MEventMessage.addEventCallback("timeChanged",
time_changed)
When I click on the Time Slider to F5, the `axes_dict` returned me `{'Y':
0.0, 'X': 0.0, 'Z': -50.0}` which is incorrect. It should be `{'Y': 0.0,
'X': 4.4444, 'Z': -50.0}` (same values as shown in the channel box)
However if I go to F8 this time, the `axes_dict` though incorrect, it
returns me the value of the 'previous' frame `{'Y': 0.0, 'X': 4.4444, 'Z':
-50.0}`
Am I using `timeChanged` incorrectly? I have tried using `cmds.refresh()`
but it does not seems to work.
Please advise.
