pymel.core.modeling.polyCylindricalProjection¶
- polyCylindricalProjection(*args, **kwargs)¶
Projects a cylindrical map onto an object.
Flags:
Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties caching / cch bool Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed. constructionHistory / ch bool Turn the construction history on or off (where applicable). If construction history is on then the corresponding node will be inserted into the history chain for the mesh. If construction history is off then the operation will be performed directly on the object. Note:If the object already has construction history then this flag is ignored and the node will always be inserted into the history chain. createNewMap / cm bool This flag when set true will create a new map with a the name passed in, if the map does not already exist. frozen / fzn bool imageCenter / ic float, float This flag specifies the center point of the 2D model layout. C: Default is 0.5 0.5. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[2]. imageCenterX / icx float This flag specifies X of the center point of the 2D model layout. C: Default is 0.5. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. imageCenterY / icy float This flag specifies Y of the center point of the 2D model layout. C: Default is 0.5. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. imageScale / imageScale float, float This flag specifies the UV scale : Enlarges or reduces the 2D version of the model in U or V space relative to the 2D centerpoint. C: Default is 1.0 1.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[3]. imageScaleU / isu float This flag specifies the U scale : Enlarges or reduces the 2D version of the model in U space relative to the 2D centerpoint. C: Default is 1.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. imageScaleV / isv float This flag specifies the U scale : Enlarges or reduces the 2D version of the model in V space relative to the 2D centerpoint. C: Default is 1.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. insertBeforeDeformers / ibd bool This flag specifies if the projection node should be inserted before or after deformer nodes already applied to the shape. Inserting the projection after the deformer leads to texture swimming during animation and is most often undesirable. C: Default is on. keepImageRatio / kir bool mapDirection / md unicode name / n unicode Give a name to the resulting node. nodeState / nds int Defines how to evaluate the node. 0: Normal1: PassThrough2: Blocking3: Internally disabled. Will return to Normal state when enabled4: Internally disabled. Will return to PassThrough state when enabled5: Internally disabled. Will return to Blocking state when enabledFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list. perInstance / pi bool projectionCenter / pc float, float, float This flag specifies the point of origin from which the map is projected. C: Default is 0.0 0.0 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[3]. projectionCenterX / pcx float This flag specifies the X of the origin’s point from which the map is projected. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. projectionCenterY / pcy float This flag specifies the Y of the origin’s point from which the map is projected. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. projectionCenterZ / pcz float This flag specifies the Z of the origin’s point from which the map is projected. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. projectionHeight / ph float projectionHorizontalSweep / phs float projectionScale / ps float, float This flag specifies the width and the height of the map relative to the 3D projection axis. C: Default is 180.0 1.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[2]. projectionScaleU / psu float This flag specifies the width of the map relative to the 3D projection axis : the scale aperture. C: Default is 180.0. The range is [0, 360]. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. projectionScaleV / psv float This flag specifies the height of the map relative to the 3D projection axis : the scale height. C: Default is 1.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. radius / r float rotate / ro float, float, float This flag specifies mapping’s rotate angles. C: Default is 0.0 0.0 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[3]. rotateX / rx float This flag specifies X for mapping’s rotate angles. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. rotateY / ry float This flag specifies Y for mapping’s rotate angles. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. rotateZ / rz float This flag specifies Z for mapping’s rotate angles. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. rotationAngle / ra float This flag specifies the angle for the rotation. When the angle is positive, then the map rotates counterclockwise on the mapped model, whereas when it is negative then the map rotates clockwise on the mapped model. C: Default is 0.0. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float. seamCorrect / sc bool This flag specifies to perform a seam correction on the mapped faces. smartFit / sf bool This flag specifies if the manipulator should be placed best fitting the object, or be placed on the specified position with the specified transformation values. Default is on. worldSpace / ws bool This flag specifies which reference to use. If on : all geometrical values are taken in world reference. If off : all geometrical values are taken in object reference. C: Default is off. Q: When queried, this flag returns an int. Common flags Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyCylindricalProjection
