pymel.core.animation.geomBind

geomBind(*args, **kwargs)

This command is used to compute weights using the GeomBind lib. In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties
bindMethod / bm int ../../../_images/create.gif
  Specifies which bind algorithm to use. By default, Geodesic Voxel will be used. Available algorithms are: 3 - Geodesic Voxel
falloff / fo float ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  Falloff controlling the bind stiffness. Valid values range from [0..1].
geodesicVoxelParams / gvp int, bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  Specifies the geodesic voxel binding parameters. This flag is composed of three parameters: 0 - Maximum voxel grid resolution which must be a power of two. (ie. 64, 128, 256, etc. ) 1 - Performs a post voxel state validation when enabled. Default values are 256 true.
maxInfluences / mi int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  Specifies the maximum influences a vertex can have. By default, all influences are used (-1). Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.geomBind

Example:

::

import pymel.core as pm

# Compute geodesic voxel weights for skinCluster1 and skinCluster2. This # command will create a geomBind node connected to the two skinClusters # and their common bind pose. The geomBind node will maintain the # geodesic voxel binding parameters used (ie: falloff, resolution, etc.) # pm.select( ‘skinCluster1’, r=True ) pm.select( ‘skinCluster2’, add=True ) pm.geomBind( bm=0, fo=0, mi=5 );
