pymel.core.modeling.polyMoveEdge¶
- polyMoveEdge(*args, **kwargs)¶
Modifies edges of a polygonal object. Translate, move, rotate or scale edges.
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. frozen / fzn bool gain / ga float localCenter / lc int This flag specifies the local center on the edge : 0 - Middle point, 1 - Start point, 2 - End point.

The range is [0, 360]. localRotateZ / lrz float This flag specifies local rotation Z angle (Slant Roll of slantAxis). C: Default is 0.0. The range is [0, 180]. localScale / ls float, float, float This flag specifies the local scaling vector.

C: Default is 0.0. localTranslateZ / ltz float This flag specifies the local Z translation. C: Default is 0.0. 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 enabledGlobal Values pivot / pvt float, float, float This flag specifies the pivot for scaling and rotation. C: Default is 0.0 0.0 0.0. pivotX / pvx float This flag specifies the X pivot for scaling and rotation. C: Default is 0.0. pivotY / pvy float This flag specifies the Y pivot for scaling and rotation. C: Default is 0.0. pivotZ / pvz float This flag specifies the Z pivot for scaling and rotation. C: Default is 0.0. random / ran float This flag specifies the random value for all parameters. C: Default is 0.0. The range is [-10.0, 10.0]. Local Values rotate / ro float, float, float This flag specifies the rotation angles around X, Y, Z. C: Default is 0.0 0.0 0.0. rotateX / rx float This flag specifies the rotation angle around X. C: Default is 0.0. rotateY / ry float This flag specifies the rotation angle around Y. C: Default is 0.0. rotateZ / rz float This flag specifies the rotation angle around Z. C: Default is 0.0. scale / s float, float, float This flag specifies the scaling vector.

Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list. 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. Common flags Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyMoveEdge
Example:
import pymel.core as pm # Create a sphere. pm.polySphere( n='plg', r=5 ) pm.select( 'plg.e[200:219]', 'plg.e[560:599]' ) # Translate selected edges along Z in local coordinates. pm.polyMoveEdge( ltz=1.0 ) # Scale selected edges by (0.5 0.5 0.5) pm.polyMoveEdge( 'plg.e[100:119]', s=(0.5, 0.5, 0.5) )
