How to show/hide items(?) in active view on maya with python?
0
Now I know how to hide all the nurbs curves on active viewport. But how can I do same thing for all the items on show menu on viewport such as cameras, manipulator, grid...etc at the same time?
I think that I need to use for loop for this but I need some guide. Thank you.
import maya.cmds as cmds
actView = cmds.getPanel(wf=True)
if cmds.modelEditor(actView, q=True, nurbsCurves=True) == 1:
cmds.modelEditor(actView, e=True, nurbsCurves=False)
python hide show maya

here is a method to hide everything :
actView = cmds.getPanel(wf=True) # actView='modelPanel4'
# list the flag we use to hide, not that alo hide nearly everything
hide_attrs = ['alo', 'manipulators', 'grid', 'hud', 'hos', 'sel']
# value is used to make visible or to hide (0 is for hiding)
value = 0
# flags is used to create a dictionary that will be used in the command to do : manipulators = 0
flags = { i : value for i in hide_attrs }
# the double star unpack a python dictionnary the key = value, i.e in this case : alo = 0, hud = 0....
cmds.modelEditor(actView, e=1, **flags)
if you want to be more specific, you can build another dictionnary for visible attrs
# merge dictionnaries
def merge_two_dicts(x, y):
# In Python 3.5 or greater, : z = {**x, **y}
# or w = {'foo': 'bar', 'baz': 'qux', **y}
z = x.copy() # start with x's keys and values
z.update(y) # modifies z with y's keys and values & returns None
return z
actView = cmds.getPanel(wf=True) # actView='modelPanel4'
hide_attrs = ['alo', 'manipulators', 'grid', 'hud', 'hos']
vis_attrs = ['sel']
hide_flags = { i : 0 for i in hide_attrs }
vis_flags = { i : 1 for i in vis_attrs }
flags = merge_two_dicts(hide_flags, vis_flags)
cmds.modelEditor(actView, e=1, **flags)
but if i were you, I would just encapsulate this into a single def :
def set_actviewVis(value, attrs=list):
actView = cmds.getPanel(wf=True) # actView='modelPanel4'
flags = { i : value for i in attrs }
cmds.modelEditor(actView, e=1, **flags)
hide_attrs = ['alo', 'manipulators', 'grid', 'hud', 'hos']
set_actviewVis(0, hide_attrs)
vis_attrs = ['sel']
set_actviewVis(1, vis_attrs)
