Color set types

[Alexander Berx]

Hi all,

I'm writing a script for generating rest position color sets. I first wrote a version using Maya cmds but since it was a bit slow I did a rewrite using the Maya api.

Everything is working but when I create a colorset using the api it's always of the type RGBA however I would need RGB.

I just create the colorset like this:

dag_path = OpenMaya.MDagPath()
sel_iterator.getDagPath(dag_path)

mesh_fn = OpenMaya.MFnMesh(dag_path)
mesh_fn.createColorSetWithName('rest')

There isn't any option for the type I can see in the api. Does anybody have an idea how this could be achieved?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Alexander
