import pymel.core as pm # To create a new context that will create curves of degree 1: pm.threePointArcCtx( "arcContext", degree=1 ) # Result: u'arcContext' # pm.setToolTo("arcContext") # To query the degree of an existing context: pm.threePointArcCtx( "arcContext", q=True, degree=True ) # Result: 1 # # To edit the degree of an existing context: pm.threePointArcCtx( "arcContext", e=True, degree=3 ) # Result: u'arcContext' #
