tik_manager4.dcc.maya.utils

Collection of utility functions for Maya

These are essentially methods are both required by the main module and the ingest, extract and/or validate modules. To prevent circular imports, these methods are collected here.

Functions

`get_ranges`()	Get the viewport ranges.
`get_scene_fps`()	Return the current FPS value set by DCC. None if not supported.
`keepselection`(func)	Decorator method to keep the current selection. Useful where
`set_ranges`(range_list)	Set the timeline ranges.
`set_scene_fps`(fps_value)	Set the FPS value in DCC if supported.
`unique_name`(name[, return_counter, suffix])	Searches the scene for match and returns a unique name for given name

Module Contents

get_ranges(): Get the viewport ranges. Returns (list): [<absolute range start>, <user range start>, <user range end>, <absolute range end>

get_scene_fps(): Return the current FPS value set by DCC. None if not supported.

keepselection(func): Decorator method to keep the current selection. Useful where the wrapped method messes with the current selection

set_ranges(range_list)

Set the timeline ranges. Args:

range_list: list of ranges as [<animation start>, <user min>, <user max>,
<animation end>]

Returns: None

set_scene_fps(fps_value)

Set the FPS value in DCC if supported. Args:

fps_value: (integer) fps value

Returns: None

unique_name(name, return_counter=False, suffix=None)

Searches the scene for match and returns a unique name for given name Args:

name: (String) Name to query return_counter: (Bool) If true, returns the next available number instead of the object name suffix: (String) If defined and if name ends with this suffix, the increment numbers will be put before the.

Returns: (String) uniquename
