HI community, I want to know how to find any type of deformer applied on a object in Maya 2020.
For example if I apply a blendShape, deltaMush, tension and cluster to a polyCube in Maya 2018 and I do cmds.findDeformers("pCube1")
the command returns [u'tweak3', u'tension2', u'deltaMush2', u'cluster1', u'blendShape1']
But when I do the exact same thing in Maya 2020, the command returns None
I found that they changed the way deformers are handled from Maya 2020 but then what should be the correct command?
Knowing that in case of cmds.listHistory("pCube1") it works but if I have a live connection between two objects(through blendShape for example) then the listHistory will return the deformers found on both objects which I don't want of course!
Any help can be appreciated, thanks.
