Is this possible and how to do it? I also need code completition for XSI SDK Python modules in Eclipse. I need any advice :) 2012-02-08T01:29:10+01:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/explicitly-adding-information-to-deltas-simodificationdeltagrouprelation/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/explicitly-adding-information-to-deltas-simodificationdeltagrouprelation/page-last/#When:15:24:48Z Hi All, Right now I'm trying to learn more about explicitly adding information to deltas and recently hit a point where the SDK doesn't seem to cover what I'd like to do: I've had good success following the SDK for the commands it states, but seem to be missing the command to add an entry to siModificationDeltaGroupRelation ex: siModificationDeltaType.siModificationDeltaStaticValue from http://www.kxcad.net/Softimage_XSI/Softimage_XSI_SDK_Portal/ActionDelta_AddStaticValueItem.htm var oDeltaAction = oDelta.AddAction(siModificationDeltaStaticValue) // Add the Static Value item var oActionDeltaItem = oDeltaAction.AddStaticValueItem(oCube + ".kine.global.posx", 10); what I'm looking for: siModificationDeltaType.siModificationDeltaGroupRelation var oActionDeltaItem = oDeltaAction.[u]???????????????[/u](oCube + ".kine.global.posx", 10); I'm assuming the command exists as the entries get added if I add an object to a group or partition, but have no idea how to access it explicitly. I have had success with taking an already existing entry and modifying it to do what I want, but still leaves the question. Thanks in advance! 2012-01-23T15:24:48+01:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/python-n00b-how-can-i-get-all-passes/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/python-n00b-how-can-i-get-all-passes/page-last/#When:08:41:56Z Hi.. Python N00b here.. Trying to get a list of all the passes in a scene. I can get the current pass (thanks to a post on this site) but the syntax to get all the passes is eluding me. My goal is of course to use said list of passes in a script. I have looked at Scene.Passes, Scene.PassContainer in the SDK, but not quite sure how to translate from VB to python. Any help, most appreciated. I suspect I've just failed to grasp a basic tenant. Cheers and Thanks.

I want to be able to pick a specific point along the length of the curve. I thought that the appropriate subcomponant filter would be siIsopointFilter but the CRefArray that is returned is empty and I would have thought that for a isopoint a value value would be returned. this is the code used for the pick session. [code] CRefArray objects; in_ctxt.Pick( l_points, siPickSingleObject, siPickRaycast, L"", CRefArray(), objects ); if ( objects.GetCount() > 0 ) { CRefArray components; in_ctxt.Pick( l_points, siPickSingleSubComponent, siPickRaycast, siUKnotCurveFilter, objects, components ); } [/code] simon 2011-09-03T01:54:40+01:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/accessing-uv-islands-from-scripting-languages/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/xsi-sdk/accessing-uv-islands-from-scripting-languages/page-last/#When:12:15:08Z Hi, is there a way in SI to get access to either enumerations of UV Islands or at least the ability to get connected uv points? I am trying to program a UV layout script and this must iterate over UV Islands. It is not an option to use polygon islands, since I often have one single mesh with many UV islands. Help is very appreciated.

So my question: I´ve built an custom UI, and now I´m trying to execute the code I´ve readout from the script editor within this UI. On clicking the OK button the command code which was generated automatically through SI 2012, should be executed. But only the first line is being executed. I´ve found an article about prefering object model code instead of command code, but I would like to use the command code because the script with 642 lines already exist. Is there any way to make this work. Cheers, Marty_H 2011-06-15T17:19:50+01:00
