get scene data with maya print toolbox

By June 16, 2010No Comments

Jay Grenier offers up this handy little MEL script for Autodesk Maya that allows you to grab all kinds of information from your scene really quickly, with just a click in fact. Grab transform values, SDK count, joint count, selection count, all nodes, and more. This is actually quite useful for understanding or debugging a file.

Download the Print Toolbox here: jgPrintToolbox.mel

Features:

  • Print Transform Values: Prints out basic transform values in the script editor for everything selected in an easy to read format.
  • Print SDK Count: Prints the number of set driven keys in your scene.
  • Print Joint Count: Prints the number of joints in your scene.
  • Print Selection Count: Tells you how many objects are selected.
  • Print All Nodes Count: Gives you the total number of nodes in your scene.
  • Print Selected To Array: This will print out your selected objects into an array that you can copy from the script editor.
