Maya Ascii

[Vitor Lôbo Ramos]

It is possible to translate a file.ma (Ascii) Maya for python? how do
I? if not possible, at least, it is possible to decode to understand
and add in python?

Exemple:

setAttr ".fl" ( fl signification ? )
setAttr ".coi" ( coi is? )
setAttr ".imn" ( imn is? )
setAttr ".den" ( .... )
setAttr ".man" (.... )
setAttr ".tp" (....)
setAttr ".hc" (.....)

through material that I can understand the meaning of " abbreviations
" ???

fl, coi, imn, etc.... are short names of attributes. these will vary node to node obviously. the node itself should be indicated above the setAttr lines.

python equivalent would be along the lines of

import maya.cmds as mc

mc.setAttr(node+'.fl',val)

mc.setAttr(node+'.coi',val)

...etc

where val is a value that I assume you've omitted from your example that should come after each setAttr call. To translate this to python I dont think you should ever need to know what exactly those attributes are. I havent tried it and dont really like it, but you may be able to use the same sort of style they use there and omit the "node +" that I included in my example above.

I wonder ..... what the value equivalent in ascii, for python. But if
this is not possible, thank you for the tip.
