[Closed] Load Envelope

found it!
UIAccessor.PressDefaultButton()

Are you talking about for the Skin modifier. The access to it sucks, having to have it selected in the stack and all is a pain. To be able to load skin weights and what I have had to write my own XML file format that stores all the data and then apply back to a skin modifier. If you are talking about something else then I will just move right along.

This is exactly what I am talking about Paul,
but for our needs this is enough.
We wanted to write a small tool that can update skin data of all assets in an animation scene automatically and we wanted to avoid pressing ‘ENTER’ for every env file.

I don’t remember seeing anything like what you are taking about in the scripts section in your site so I presume you are not sharing it. Am I wrong in that assumption? Because it sounds interesting

I posted a script made with Zeboxx’s help for this. You could toggle the ‘Remove Incoming Prefix’ and ‘Remove Existing Prefix’ checkboxes, and it would Match By Name and then OK the dialog.

I have not shared it, sorry. 95% of what I do I don’t share, I need to have some edge on the rest of the industry;)

I didn’t bother with the built in systems and I have a tool that does exactly what you are looking to do. It loads the data from a custom XML file that stores all the vertex and envelop data. You can then automate the process of updating Skin weights with it using call back scripts. I can also use the same tool for setting up new characters using an existing rig as I have functions that will add skin, read the file and add all the bones then set all the envelopes and weights if I want. At the moment there is no UI, just functions that are called as I need them, this is another reason tools like this don’t end up on my site as I would have to spend lots on time on documentation for any one to use it all.
