add color swatch attribute

[kevco...@gmail.com]

Okay, So i'm just trying to add a color swatch attribute to a locator. why does this not work? it's basically taken from the pymel docs

import pymel.core as pm

null = pm.spaceLocator()
null.addAttr( longName='Color', usedAsColor=True attributeType='float3' )

Thanks
Kev

Hi Kev,

You also need to add the child attribute.

import pymel.core as pm

null = pm.spaceLocator()

null.addAttr('rainbow', usedAsColor=True, attributeType='float3' )

null.addAttr('red', attributeType='float', parent='rainbow' )

null.addAttr('green', attributeType='float', parent='rainbow' )

null.addAttr('blue', attributeType='float', parent='rainbow' )

Greets,

Colas
