例: 立方体メッシュのアニメートで時間を使用する

ファイル名: animCubeN de.py

注釈付きの出力: 次のイメージでは、点線の矢印は立方体の背面と下部のポリゴンをポイントしており、完全な矢印は前方と上面のポリゴンをポイントしています。このイメージに添付されているテーブルは、MFnMesh.create() で使用されるさまざまな配列パラメータを示しています。

プログラムの概要: 次のプラグインコードは、Maya API マニュアルで提供されている animCubeNode.py 例の適合です。一部の変数名は、クラスのドキュメントとよりよく一致するようにリファクタリングされ、上の出力で注釈されています。この MPxNode プラグインでは、生成される出力立方体メッシュのスケールを決定する Maya の時間を受け入れる、タイプを持つ入力アトリビュートが定義されています。このコマンドを実行したら、Maya ユーザインタフェースでタイムラインをスライドして、アニメーションを表示します。

注:この立方体メッシュを作成する方法は、例: ボクセライザノードでボクセルを作成する場合にも使用されます。
