FBX + Mel Script issue
Hi! I'm actually working with the "2009.3" version of the FBX exporter on Maya... First I was really surprised when I seen the "Maya Mel Scripting" section in the FBX documentation... But is there no way to export a selection? :D I already tried to add the "select -r" before the "FBXExport -f [filename]" function but it… -

Mel how to remove faces from current selection or array.
I've got some faces selected on multiple objects through a script and I need to only select the faces from the object with a certain name, is there a way to remove from my selection or remove from my array in Mel?

Re: Mel Layers the bane of my existence currently.
still cant figure out how to check for a string in a string in mel, but if mel is required you could always do this. string $layers[] = `ls -type "displayLayer"`;for ($i in $layers){ if (python("'LPL'" + "in" + "'" + $i +"'")) { setAttr($i + ".visibility", 1); }} though as you seen it is most easily done via python edit:… -
Simple(?) MEL Script
I am attempting to write what I assume is a pretty simple mel script to achieve this behavior: • Select shortest edge path based on current selection of two verts • Switch to edge component mode • Set selected edges to hard I got as far as finding this: polySelect -shortestEdgePath 10 100 pPlane1;, but got stuck trying to… -

It's been a long time since I touched mel so I can't help much more I'm afraid. But what you'd probably have to do, is register your… -
Re: Selection by name and ignore non-existing MEL in Maya
Things like doDelete should be avoided (there are exceptions but I will not go into details here). It is not a MEL-command but a function call to some MEL script, meaning it's better that you learn what said script does (hint: many scripts do a lot of things you can live withouit). You can find out what script by using the… -
[Mel Script] Delay issue?
Here is the problem : I created a mel script for exporting very lot of objects at the same time. But I need to edit each Collada file and to replace the content of some line...
