[Closed] [SOLVED] Query Custom Attribute Names/Aliases from objects

Mar 20, 2021 12:11 pm

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if someone knew how to query custom attribute names from an object? For example, in Maya, we would use cmds.listAttr(‘Name”, ud=1) and it would query an array/list of the custom attribute names. Is there an equivalent with Maxscript?

The short answer would be:

attribDef = custAttributes.getDef $ 1
print (custAttributes.getPBlockDefs attribDef)[1]

In the Help there is a function that gives more detailed information about a CA:
