Hello guys, sorry for crossposting this here (from Si-Community), as I understand many gear users hang around here, might get a bit more help...
I am using gear for mirroring poses and animation, as it already has template making built in and stuff... very neat.
Mirror pose works like a charm. The command called is xsi.Gear_MirrorPose() no arguments needed. It applies mirroring to selected controlers.
Mirror animation on the other hand (called by xsi.Gear_mirrorAnimation()) asks for 1 argument (controlers). Funny enough the menu does not seem to pass any attribute when calling this functions. Therefore I get an error. I try (by hand) passing xsi.Selection (as the first thing the function does is checking if selection is null) with no luck. I have also tried to pass object names as string, no luck
Error without passing anything:
# ERROR : Traceback (most recent call last):
# TypeError: gear_MirrorAnimation_Execute() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)

Anybody had any luck with these?
