postTranslatePython overrided in command line

[bigbossfr]

Hi,
When i set the attribute postTranslatePython in command line like :

setAttr -type "string" vraySettings.postTranslatePython "blabla";

The code is overrided by the UI...

Can you show your full command line? In any case, in the V-Ray parameters you can just source an external Python file - then you can simply modify that.

Best regards,

After the line you already wrote, you need to also type this :
scrollField -edit -text "blabla" vrayPostTranslatePythonCallbackControl;

The command line is (it is PyMel) :

import arsenal.arsenalFunction;
reload(arsenal.arsenalFunction);
arsenal.arsenalFunction.arsenalFunction();

After the line you already wrote, you need to also type this :
scrollField -edit -text "blabla" vrayPostTranslatePythonCallbackControl;

Yep, i will add this :

setAttr("vraySettings.postTranslatePython", toAdd, type = "string")
if control( "vrayPostTranslatePythonCallbackControl", query=True, ex = True):
    scrollField("vrayPostTranslatePythonCallbackControl", edit = True, text = toAdd)

Thanks, now it is working.

Hi!

I don't know, if this is the right thread, but I'd like to give it a try.

I want to assemble a standard render command line like

render.exe -s 123 -e 456 myscene.mb

Is there a way to parse an override for the post translate script to this? I didn't get the point from reading the posts below, sorry. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

EDIT: Nevermind, got it.
