pymel.core.context.artSetPaintCtx¶
- artSetPaintCtx(*args, **kwargs)¶
This tool allows the user to modify the set membership (add, transfer, remove cvs) on nurbs surfaces using Maya Artisan’s interface. In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
Flags:
Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties accopacity / aco bool Sets opacity accumulation on/off. C: Default is false (Except for sculpt tool for which it is true by default). Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. afterStrokeCmd / asc unicode beforeStrokeCmd / bsc unicode brushalignment / bra bool Specifies the path brush alignemnt. If true, the brush will align to stroke path, otherwise it will align to up vector. C: Default is true. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. brushfeedback / brf bool Specifies if the brush additional feedback should be drawn. C: Default is TRUE. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. clear / clr bool Floods all cvs/vertices to the current value. dragSlider / dsl unicode Sets the current brush drag state for resizing or offsetting the brush (like the ‘b’ and ‘m’ default hotkeys). The string argument is one of: radius, lowradius, opacity, value, depth, displacement, uvvectoror none. C: Default is none. dynclonemode / dcm bool exists / ex bool Returns true or false depending upon whether the specified object exists. Other flags are ignored. expandfilename / eef bool If true, it will expand the name of the export file and concatenate it with the surface name. Otherwise it will take the name as it is. C: Default is true. exportaspectratio / ear float exportfilemode / efm unicode Specifies the export channel.The valid entries here are: alpha, luminance, rgb, rgba. C: Default is luminance/rgb. Q: When queried, it returns a string. exportfilesave / esf unicode Exports the attribute map and saves to a specified file. exportfilesizex / fsx int Specifies the width of the attribute map to export. C: Default width is 256. Q: When queried, it returns an integer. exportfilesizey / fsy int Specifies the width of the attribute map to export. C: Default width is 256. Q: When queried, it returns an integer. exportfiletype / eft unicode Specifies the image file format. It can be one of the following: iff, tiff, jpeg, alias, rgb, fitpostScriptEPS, softimage, wavefrontRLA, wavefrontEXP. C: default is tiff. Q: When queried, it returns a string. history / ch bool If this is a tool command, turn the construction history on for the tool in question. image1 / i1 unicode First of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context. image2 / i2 unicode Second of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context. image3 / i3 unicode Third of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context. importfileload / ifl unicode Load the attribute map a specified file. importfilemode / ifm unicode Specifies the channel to import. The valid entries here are: alpha, luminance, red, green, blue, and rgbC: Default is alpha. Q: When queried, it returns a string. importreassign / irm bool Specifies if the multiply atrribute maps are to be reassigned while importing. Only maps previously exported from within Artisan can be reassigned. C: Default is FALSE. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. lastRecorderCmd / lrc unicode lastStampName / lsn unicode lowerradius / lr float Sets the lower size of the brush (only apply on tablet). makeStroke / mst int mappressure / mp unicode Sets the tablet pressure mapping when the table is used. There are four options: none- the pressure has no effect, opacity- the pressure is mapped to the opacity, radius- the is mapped to modify the radius of the brush, both- the pressure modifies both the opacity and the radius. C: Default is none. Q: When queried, it returns a string. name / n unicode If this is a tool command, name the tool appropriately. objectsetnames / osn unicode opacity / op float Sets the brush opacity. C: Default is 1.0. Q: When queried, it returns a float. outline / o bool Specifies if the brush should be drawn. C: Default is TRUE. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. outwhilepaint / owp bool Specifies if the brush outline should be drawn while painting. C: Default is FALSE. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. paintmode / pm unicode Specifies the paint mode. There are two possibilities: screenand tangent. C: Default is screen. Q: When queried, it returns a string. paintoperationtype / pot unicode pickColor / pcm bool pickValue / pv bool playbackCursor / plc float, float playbackPressure / plp float preserveclonesource / pcs bool profileShapeFile / psf unicode Passes a name of the image file for the stamp shape profile. projective / prm bool Specifies the projective paint mode. C: Default is ‘false’. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. radius / r float Sets the size of the brush. C: Default is 1.0 cm. Q: When queried, it returns a float. record / rec bool reflection / rn bool Specifies the reflection mode. C: Default is ‘false’. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. reflectionaboutorigin / rno bool reflectionaxis / ra unicode Specifies the reflection axis. There are three possibilities: x, yand z. C: Default is x. Q: When queried, it returns a string. screenRadius / scR float selectclonesource / scs bool setcolorfeedback / scf bool Specifies if the color feedback is on or off. C: Default is ON. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. setdisplaycvs / dcv bool Specifies if the active cvs are displayed. C: Default is ON. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. setopertype / sot unicode Specifies the setEdit operation (add, transfer, remove). C: Default is add. Q: When queried, it returns a string. settomodify / stm unicode Specifies the name of the set to modify. Q: When queried, it returns a string. showactive / sa bool Sets on/off the display of the surface isoparms. C: Default is TRUE. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. stampDepth / stD float stampProfile / stP unicode Sets the brush profile of the current stamp. Currently, the following profiles are supported: gaussian, soft, solidand square. C: Default is gaussian. Q: When queried, it returns a string. stampSpacing / stS float strokesmooth / ssm unicode surfaceConformedBrushVertices / scv bool Enables/disables the the display of the effective brush area as affected vertices. tablet / tab bool Returns true if the tablet device is present, false if it is absent tangentOutline / to bool Enables/disables the display of the brush circle tangent to the surface. usepressure / up bool Sets the tablet pressure on/off. C: Default is false. Q: When queried, it returns a boolean. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list. worldRadius / wlR float Derived from mel command maya.cmds.artSetPaintCtx
Example:
import pymel.core as pm # Create a new set membership paint context, then switch to it pm.artSetPaintCtx('artSetPaintCtx1') # Result: u'artSetPaintCtx1' # pm.setToolTo('artSetPaintCtx1') # Set brush's radius to 2.0, lower radius to 0.5 pm.artSetPaintCtx('artSetPaintCtx1', edit=True, r=2.0, lr=0.5) # Result: u'artSetPaintCtx1' #
