pymel.core.modeling.polyMoveVertex¶

polyMoveVertex(*args, **kwargs)¶

Modifies vertices of a polygonal object. Translate, rotate or scale vertices in local or world space.

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.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyMoveVertex

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Create a sphere.
pm.polySphere( r=5, n='plg' )

# Move vertices as the scaling vector (1.0, 1.5, 1.0).
pm.polyMoveVertex( 'plg.vtx[200:379]', 'plg.vtx[381]', s=(1.0, 1.5, 1.0) )

# Translate vertices as the vector (0.0, 2.0, 0.0).
pm.polyMoveVertex( 'plg.vtx[200:379]', 'plg.vtx[381]', ty=2.0 )
