pymel.core.effects.setDynamic¶

setDynamic(*args, **kwargs)¶

setDynamic sets the isDynamic attribute of particle objects on or off. If no objects are specified, it sets the attribute for any selected objects. If -all is thrown, it sets the attribute for all particle objects in the scene. By default it sets the attribute true (on); if the -off flag is thrown, it sets the attribute false (off). WARNING: setDynamic is obsolescent. This is the last version of Maya in which it will be supported.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name		Argument Types	Properties
allOnWhenRun / awr		bool
	Obsolete, no longer suppported or necessary.
disableAllOnWhenRun / dwr		bool
	Obsolete, no longer suppported or necessary.
setAll / all		bool
	Set for all objects.
setOff / off		bool
	Sets isDynamic false.
setOn / on		bool
	Sets isDynamic true. This flag is set by default. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.setDynamic

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

pm.setDynamic( 'myParticles', on=True )
# Sets myParticles.isDynamic true.

pm.setDynamic( all=True, off=True )
# Sets isDynamic false for all particle objects in the scene.
