pymel.core.context.texSmudgeUVContext¶

texSmudgeUVContext(*args, **kwargs)¶

This command creates a context for smudge UV tool. This context only works in the texture UV editor.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name		Argument Types	Properties
dragSlider / ds		unicode
	radius | none Enables the drag slider mode. This is to support brush resizing while holding the ‘b’ or ‘B’ button.
effectType / et		unicode
	fixed | smudge Specifies the effect of the tool. In fixed mode, the UVs move as if they are attached by a rubber band. In smudge mode the UVs are moved as the cursor is dragged over the UVs.
exists / ex		bool
	Returns true or false depending upon whether the specified object exists. Other flags are ignored.
functionType / ft		unicode
	exponential | linear | constant. Specifies how UVs fall off from the center of influence.
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.
pressure / prs		float
	Pressure value when effect type is set to smudge.
radius / r		float
	Radius of the smudge tool. All UVs within this radius are affected by the tool
smudgeIsMiddle / sim		bool
	By default, the left mouse button initiates the smudge. However, this conflicts with selection. When smudgeIsMiddle is on, smudge mode is activated by the middle mouse button instead of the left mouse button. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.texSmudgeUVContext

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Create a poly plane
pm.polyPlane(w=10, h=10, sx=10, sy=10, n='pPlane1')
# Result: [nt.Transform(u'pPlane1'), nt.PolyPlane(u'polyPlane1')] #

# Select all UVs
pm.select('pPlane1.map[0:120]', r=True)

# Create a new smudge UV tool context, set the effect type to smudge mode, set the radius to 0.1 and pressure to 0.2, then switch to it
# In order to use this tool to smudge the UVs of pPlane1, you must open the texture UV editor
pm.texSmudgeUVContext('texSmudgeUVContext1', effectType='smudge', r=0.1, prs=0.2)
# Result: u'texSmudgeUVContext1' #
pm.setToolTo('texSmudgeUVContext1')
