Hint You open the UI by executing: |
The “1” is important here, so be sure to include it in your command for opening the UI and/or for the shelf button you might want to create. The following window should appear, initially with empty lists, of course.
Click an item on the image to jump to its description.
Hint Since version 2.0.1 of the animUI script, you can optionally open the UI in a panel like the Outliner or the camera views. Here are images of how this will look:
For information on how to install the animUI as a panel, see Chapter 2. Installation. |
Main Buttons
The Current Object
The drop-down list on the bottom left of the window contains all objects that have a setup for the animUI. Any node in Maya can be added to the list by simply selecting it in the scene and choosing Add Selected Object from this list.
Each node that has such a setup can have a different configuration and control any number of attributes, have different sections and presets. The UI will show the configuration of the object that is selected in this drop-down list.
Select Button
The Select button simply selects the currently chosen object.
Key All
Pressing the Key All button will set a keyframe for all attributes of the currently displayed setup.
Maximize Slider Area
|
This button at the top of the window hides the upper part of the UI so that the sliders get the maximum possible space. Pressing it again will restore the original state of the UI.
