pymel.core.context.ikSplineHandleCtx¶
- ikSplineHandleCtx(*args, **kwargs)¶
The ikSplineHandle context command (ikSplineHandleCtx) updates parameters of ikSplineHandle tool. The options for the tool will be set to the flags the user specifies.
Flags:
Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties autoPriorityH / apH bool Specifies that this handle’s priority is assigned automatically.C: The default is off.Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. createCurve / ccv bool Specifies if a curve should be automatically created for the ikSplineHandle. C: The default is on. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. createRootAxis / cra bool Specifies if a root transform should automatically be created above the joints affected by the ikSplineHandle. This option is used to prevent the root flipping singularity on a motion path. C: The default is off. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. exists / ex bool Returns true or false depending upon whether the specified object exists. Other flags are ignored. forceSolverH / fsH bool Specifies if the ikSolver is enabled for the ikHandle.C: The default is on. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. 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. name / n unicode If this is a tool command, name the tool appropriately. numSpans / ns int Specifies the number of spans in the automatically generated curve of the ikSplineHandle. C: The default is 1. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. parentCurve / pcv bool Specifies if the curve should automatically be parented to the parent of the first joint affected by the ikSplineHandle. C: The default is on. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. poWeightH / pwH float Specifies the position/orientation weight of the ikHandle.C: The default is 1.Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. priorityH / pH int Specifies the priority of the ikHandle.C: The default is 1.Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. rootOnCurve / roc bool Specifies if the root is locked onto the curve of the ikSplineHandle. C: The default is on. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. rootTwistMode / rtm bool Specifies whether the start joint is allowed to twist or not. If not, then the required twist is distributed over the remaining joints. This applies to all the twist types. C: The default is off. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. simplifyCurve / scv bool Specifies if the ikSplineHandle curve should be simplified. C: The default is on. Q: When queried, this returns an int. snapCurve / snc bool Specifies if the curve should automatically snap to the first joint affected by the ikSplineHandle. C: The default is off. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. snapHandleH / snH bool Specifies if the ikHandle snapping is on. This flag is ignored for the ikSplineSolver.C: The default is on.Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. solverTypeH / stH unicode Lists what ikSolver is being used. For the ikSplineContext the solver can only be the ikSplineSolver and this flag is ignored. C: The default solver is the ikSplineSolver.Q: When queried, this flag returns a string. stickyH / sH unicode Specifies if the ikHandle is sticky or not. Valid strings are stickyand off. This flag is ignored for the ikSplineSolver.C: The default is off.Q: When queried, this flag returns a string. twistType / tws unicode Specifies the type of interpolation to be used by the ikSplineHandle. The interpolation options are linear, easeIn, easeOut, and easeInOut.C: The default is linear. Q: When queried, this flag returns a string. weightH / wH float Specifies the weight of the ikHandle. This flag is ignored in the ikSplineHandleCtx.C: The default is 1.Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Example:
import pymel.core as pm # Edit an existing context to create an ikSplineHandle with # the curve parented to the corresponding joint. # if pm.ikSplineHandleCtx( 'ikSplineHandleCtx', q=True, ex=True ): pm.ikSplineHandleCtx('ikSplineHandleCtx', e=True, parentCurve=True)
