Calculate +, -, /, * inside of set current time
For example 24 frame*2=48>move to 48 frame on time slider.
I know in script editor can do like in example.
But I don’t want to do that way.
So Is there any good idea or tools?
How to make a calculation inside of set current time?
I don't think setCurrentTime have math functionality like some other attributes.
that is the way we can use math in attributes :
operation = number
and here is a little script that might suit your need :
string $text;
string $result = `promptDialog
-title "math the current time"
-message "Enter math(only the operation and the number):"
-button "OK" -button "Cancel"
-defaultButton "OK" -cancelButton "Cancel"
-dismissString "Cancel"`;
if ($result == "OK") {
$text = `promptDialog -query -text`;
string $forEval = "`currentTime -q`" + $text;
float $evaRes =`eval("$tempHolder=" + $forEval)`;
currentTime ($evaRes);
}else {print ("math operation canceled");}
Accepted solution
🤍
sure, here is the script:
proc qwe(){
string $newMath = `textField -q -text mathField`;
string $forEval = "`currentTime -q`" + $newMath;
float $evaRes =`eval("$tempHolder=" + $forEval)`;
currentTime ($evaRes);}
global proc createCustomWorkspaceControlUI(){
rowColumnLayout;
text -l "only type the operation and the number";
textField mathField;
button -l "apply" -command "qwe()";}
workspaceControl -retain false -floating true -uiScript "createCustomWorkspaceControlUI();" mathCurrentTime;
