pymel.core.system.cacheFileTrack

cacheFileTrack(*args, **kwargs)

This command is used for inserting and removing tracks related to the caches displayed in the trax editor. It can also be used to modify the track state, for example, to lock or mute a track. In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties
insertTrack / it int ../../../_images/create.gif
  This flag is used to insert a new empty track at the track index specified.
lock / l bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  This flag specifies whether clips on a track are to be locked or not.
mute / m bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  This flag specifies whether clips on a track are to be muted or not.
removeEmptyTracks / ret bool ../../../_images/create.gif
  This flag is used to remove all tracks that have no clips.
removeTrack / rt int ../../../_images/create.gif
  This flag is used to remove the track with the specified index. The track must have no clips on it before it can be removed.
solo / so bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
  This flag specifies whether clips on a track are to be soloed or not.
track / t int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.cacheFileTrack

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Move the cache clip named "cubeCache2" to track 3
#
pm.cacheFileTrack( 'cubeCache2', track=3 )
# Lock the track containing the cache clip named "sphCache1"
#
pm.cacheFileTrack( 'sphCache1', lock=True )
# Remove any empty cache tracks for the object "sphereShape1"
#
pm.cacheFileTrack('sphereShape1',removeEmptyTracks=True)
# query the track index of the cache clip named "sphCache1"
#
pm.cacheFileTrack( 'sphCache1', q=True, track=True )
