pymel.core.windows.intSliderGrp¶

intSliderGrp(*args, **kwargs)¶

All of the group commands position their individual controls in columns starting at column 1. The layout of each control (ie. column) can be customized using the -cw/columnWidth, -co/columnOffset, -cat/columnAttach, -cal/columnAlign, and -adj/adjustableColumnflags. By default, columns are left aligned with no offset and are 100 pixels wide. Only one column in any group can be adjustable. This command creates a pre-packaged collection of controls containing a label text, an integer field and an integer slider. The text and field controls are optional. Editing or querying the field range values has no effect if the -f/fieldflag was not specified when the group was created. This group also allows you to enter values into the field outside of the slider range which is limited by the -min/minValueand -max/maxValueflags. To do this, use the -fmn/fieldMinValueand -fmx/fieldMaxValueflags to specify a greater range of values. Note that the command will not allow you to specify a -fmn/fieldMinValuegreater than the -min/minValuevalue nor a -fmx/fieldMaxValueless than the -max/maxValuevalue. If you do supply a larger field range with the -fmn/fieldMinValueand -fmx/fieldMaxValueflags then you will notice that entering a value in the field that is outside of the slider range will result in extending the slider range as well. For example, if you create a slider group with the following command: intSliderGrp -min -10 -max 10 -fieldMinValue -100 -fieldMaxValue 100; Then you will be able to use the slider to select any value from -10 to 10. At the same time you will be able to enter into the field any value from -100 to 100. If you enter a value, say 20, then the new slider range will grow such that this value is now accessible through the slider as well. In fact, the new slider limit will become double of that what you entered. Note that the slider limits will never grow beyond the field limits, in other words if you entered the value 80 then the slider will be clipped to the field limit of 100 and not doubled to 160.

defineTemplate / dt		unicode
	Puts the command in a mode where any other flags and args are parsed and added to the command template specified in the argument. They will be used as default arguments in any subsequent invocations of the command when templateName is set as the current template.
docTag / dtg		unicode
	Add a documentation flag to the control. The documentation flag has a directory structure like hierarchy. Eg. -dt render/multiLister/createNode/material
dragCallback / dgc		script
	Adds a callback that is called when the middle mouse button is pressed. The MEL version of the callback is of the form: global proc string[] callbackName(string $dragControl, int $x, int $y, int $mods) The proc returns a string array that is transferred to the drop site. By convention the first string in the array describes the user settable message type. Controls that are application defined drag sources may ignore the callback. $mods allows testing for the key modifiers CTL and SHIFT. Possible values are 0 == No modifiers, 1 == SHIFT, 2 == CTL, 3 == CTL + SHIFT. In Python, it is similar, but there are two ways to specify the callback. The recommended way is to pass a Python function object as the argument. In that case, the Python callback should have the form: def callbackName( dragControl, x, y, modifiers ): The values of these arguments are the same as those for the MEL version above. The other way to specify the callback in Python is to specify a string to be executed. In that case, the string will have the values substituted into it via the standard Python format operator. The format values are passed in a dictionary with the keys dragControl, x, y, modifiers. The dragControlvalue is a string and the other values are integers (eg the callback string could be print ‘%(dragControl)s %(x)d %(y)d %(modifiers)d’
dragCommand / dc		script
	The command string executed repeatedly during a drag of the slider.
dropCallback / dpc		script
	Adds a callback that is called when a drag and drop operation is released above the drop site. The MEL version of the callback is of the form: global proc callbackName(string $dragControl, string $dropControl, string $msgs[], int $x, int $y, int $type) The proc receives a string array that is transferred from the drag source. The first string in the msgs array describes the user defined message type. Controls that are application defined drop sites may ignore the callback. $type can have values of 1 == Move, 2 == Copy, 3 == Link. In Python, it is similar, but there are two ways to specify the callback. The recommended way is to pass a Python function object as the argument. In that case, the Python callback should have the form: def pythonDropTest( dragControl, dropControl, messages, x, y, dragType ): The values of these arguments are the same as those for the MEL version above. The other way to specify the callback in Python is to specify a string to be executed. In that case, the string will have the values substituted into it via the standard Python format operator. The format values are passed in a dictionary with the keys dragControl, dropControl, messages, x, y, type. The dragControlvalue is a string and the other values are integers (eg the callback string could be print ‘%(dragControl)s %(dropControl)s %(messages)r %(x)d %(y)d %(type)d’
enable / en		bool
	The enable state of the control. By default, this flag is set to true and the control is enabled. Specify false and the control will appear dimmed or greyed-out indicating it is disabled.
enableBackground / ebg		bool
	Enables the background color of the control.
exists / ex		bool
	Returns whether the specified object exists or not. Other flags are ignored.
extraLabel / el		unicode
	If present on creation this specifies that there will be an extra label appearing after the slider. Sets the string to be the text for the extra label.
field / f		bool
	If true on creation the group will have an editable int field present that reflects the value of the slider.
fieldMaxValue / fmx		int
	Maximum value that may be entered in the field. This value may be set to any value greater than the -max/maxValueflag. By default, it is equal to the -max/maxValueflag.
fieldMinValue / fmn		int
	Minimum value that may be entered in the field. This value may be set to any value less than the -min/minValueflag. By default, it is equal to the -min/minValueflag.
fieldStep / fs		int
	Increment for the field.
fullPathName / fpn		bool
	Return the full path name of the widget, which includes all the parents
height / h		int
	The height of the control. The control will attempt to be this size if it is not overruled by parent layout conditions.
highlightColor / hlc		float, float, float
	The highlight color of the control. The arguments correspond to the red, green, and blue color components. Each component ranges in value from 0.0 to 1.0.
isObscured / io		bool
	Return whether the control can actually be seen by the user. The control will be obscured if its state is invisible, if it is blocked (entirely or partially) by some other control, if it or a parent layout is unmanaged, or if the control’s window is invisible or iconified.
label / l		unicode
	If present on creation the group will have static text. Returns a string on query.
manage / m		bool
	Manage state of the control. An unmanaged control is not visible, nor does it take up any screen real estate. All controls are created managed by default.
maxValue / max		int
	Sets the maximum value for both the slider and the field.
minValue / min		int
	Sets the minimum value for both the slider and the field.
noBackground / nbg		bool
	Clear/reset the control’s background. Passing true means the background should not be drawn at all, false means the background should be drawn. The state of this flag is inherited by children of this control.
numberOfPopupMenus / npm		bool
	Return the number of popup menus attached to this control.
parent / p		unicode
	The parent layout for this control.
popupMenuArray / pma		bool
	Return the names of all the popup menus attached to this control.
preventOverride / po		bool
	If true, this flag disallows overriding the control’s attribute via the control’s right mouse button menu.
rowAttach / rat		int, unicode, int
	Arguments are : column, attachment type, offset. Possible attachments are: top | bottom | both. Specifies attachment types and offsets for the entire row.
sliderStep / ss		int
	On Linux the slider step value represents the amount the value will increase or decrease when you click either side of the slider.
step / s		int
	Increment for both the slider and field.
useTemplate / ut		unicode
	Force the command to use a command template other than the current one.
value / v		int
	Value of the group.
visible / vis		bool
	The visible state of the control. A control is created visible by default. Note that a control’s actual appearance is also dependent on the visible state of its parent layout(s).
visibleChangeCommand / vcc		script
	Command that gets executed when visible state of the control changes.
width / w		int
	The width of the control. The control will attempt to be this size if it is not overruled by parent layout conditions. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.intSliderGrp

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

#    Create a window with a couple integer slider groups.  The first will
#    use default limit values, and the second will set up a group that has
#    a field range greater than the slider range.  Try entering values
#    greater than the slider limits in both groups.
#
window = pm.window( title='intSliderGrp Example' )
pm.columnLayout()
# Result: ui.ColumnLayout('window1|columnLayout53') #
pm.intSliderGrp( field=True, label='Group 1' )
# Result: ui.IntSliderGrp('window1|columnLayout53|intSliderGrp1') #
pm.intSliderGrp( field=True, label='Group 2', minValue=-10, maxValue=10, fieldMinValue=-100, fieldMaxValue=100, value=0 )
# Result: ui.IntSliderGrp('window1|columnLayout53|intSliderGrp2') #
pm.showWindow( window )
