pymel.core.rendering.editRenderLayerGlobals¶

editRenderLayerGlobals(*args, **kwargs)¶

Edit the parameter values common to all render layers. Some of these paremeters, eg. baseId and mergeType, are stored as preferences and some, eg. currentRenderLayer, are stored in the file.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name		Argument Types	Properties
baseId / bi		int
	Set base layer ID. This is the number at which new layers start searching for a unique ID.
currentRenderLayer / crl		PyNode
	Set current render layer. This will will update the renderLayerManger and all DAG objects to identify them as members of the render layer. This flag may also be used in conjunction with useCurrentto automatically add new DAG objects to the active layer. The isCurrentRenderLayerChangingcondition can be used to determine when the current layer is being changed and adjustments are being applied to the scene.
enableAutoAdjustments / eaa		bool
	Set whether or not to enable automatic creation of adjustments when certain attributes (ie. surface render stats, shading group assignment, or render settings) are changed.
mergeType / mt		int
	Set file import merge type. Valid values are 0, none, 1, by number, and 2, by name.
useCurrent / uc		bool
	Set whether or not to enable usage of the current render layer as the destination for all new nodes. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.editRenderLayerGlobals

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

pm.editRenderLayerGlobals( currentRenderLayer='layer1' )
pm.editRenderLayerGlobals( query=True, currentRenderLayer=True )
# Result: layer1
pm.editRenderLayerGlobals( query=True, baseId=True )
# Result: 1
pm.editRenderLayerGlobals( useCurrent=True )
# Enable automatic creation of adjustments
pm.editRenderLayerGlobals( enableAutoAdjustments=True )
