Re: [Maya-Python] Re: how to combine multiple shape nodes in polygon

[stephenkmann]

I just did a super quick test of 4 shapes under one transform. each one had it's own shader.

 I selected the transform and ran "combine" 

and the result was one mesh object, and the shaders end up a face assignments.

 is there something more you need this to be?

I somewhat managed to get it working in my following code but was met with another problem... 

def fix_multi_shapes_nodes():
    all_geos = cmds.ls(sl = True)
    for geo in all_geos:
        shapes = cmds.listRelatives(geo, fullPath=True, shapes=True)
        print len(shapes)


        # if it has only 1 shape, no fixing required
        if len(shapes) == 1:
            continue


        # pop out the first shape, since we don't have to fix it
        shapes = shapes[1:]
        for shape in shapes:
            new_transform = cmds.duplicate(shape, parentOnly=True)
            cmds.parent(shape, new_transform, addObject=True, shape=True)
            cmds.parent(shape, removeObject=True, shape=True)
           
fix_multi_shapes()

Now while I am able to have the shapes nodes to be a individual geometry pieces, however I am getting issues with the naming, in which I am getting 'googleEarth_3342_1_geo', 'googleEarth_3342_1_geo2', ..., 'googleEarth_3342_1_geo22', 'googleEarth_3342_1_geo35' etc..

I am trying to get the suffix to be just '_geo' by using .rstrip which is not helping because of the '3342'..

This is the command where I do for the renaming:

sel_list = cmds.ls(sl=True)

for ind in sel_list:
    new = re.sub(r'\d*$','', ind)
    cmds.rename(ind, new)
