MEL questions

[Anonymous]

Hello! How can I get the massive of joint's names, which binding to the skinned mesh?

Sorry for my English.

In detail:

I have a mesh with skin.
I have joints in this skin.

I need names of all these joints.

Maybe in massive.

Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!

If you open the Outliner under the Windows tab you should be able to see a list of all the joints in the scene.

Let me know if this solves your issue!

Hi, you should be able to run the following MEL to get joints that I in the skin cluster:

// replace skinCluster1 with the name of the skin cluster you want to query

string $influenceList[] = `skinCluster -q -weightedInfluence "skinCluster1"`;

Cool ! Thank you!

But, "This flag returns a string array of the influence objects (joints and transform) that have non-zero weighting". 
Can I get all of joints, which are in my skin?

Have you tried changing "-weightedInfluence" to just "-influence"?
