1. MAYA query of normals are locked

   

   Topic by hannes d · Jul 2018 · Home› Technical Talk

   Hi, Does anyone know how to query Maya if normals are locked? The manual way to do it is go to display/polygons/vert normals and it will display yellow lines if the normals are locked. But is there a way to do this trough scripting? Preferably with Pymel or OpenMaya.

   Check this page out, you can do something like pm.polyNormalPerVertex(q=True, al=True) to get a true/false on a vertex selection. I don't know pymel too good, couldn't quickly figure out the best way to go from an object selection to a vertex to give you a little starter script, sorry.
