pymel.core.modeling.polyMergeEdge¶
- polyMergeEdge(*args, **kwargs)¶
Sews two border edges together.The new edge is located either on the first, last, or between both selected edges, depending on the mode. Both edges must belong to the same object, and orientations must match (i.e. normals on corresponding faces must point in the same direction).Edge flags are mandatory.
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. firstEdge / fe int The number of the first edge to merge. frozen / fzn bool mergeMode / mm int This flag specifies how to merge, merge mode : at first edge : 0, in between : 1, at last edge : 2. C: Default is in between. mergeTexture / mt bool 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. secondEdge / se int The number of the second edge to merge. Common flags Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyMergeEdge
Example:
import pymel.core as pm pm.polyPlane( sx=3, sy=3, n='plg1' ) pm.move( -2, 0, 0, 'plg1' ) pm.delete( 'plg1.f[3:5]' ) pm.polyPlane( sx=3, sy=3, n='plg2' ) pm.delete( 'plg2.f[3:5]' ) pm.polyPlane( sx=3, sy=3, n='plg3' ) pm.move( 2, 0, 0, 'plg3' ) pm.delete( 'plg3.f[3:5]' ) # First pm.polyMergeEdge( 'plg1', mm=0, fe=8, se=12 ) # Between pm.polyMergeEdge( 'plg2', mm=1, fe=8, se=12 ) # Last pm.polyMergeEdge( 'plg3', mm=2, fe=8, se=12 )
