Shelf height resize through Click and Drag

[dkqjwl0126]

Hi Friends! I'm noob user in Maya.

First. Thanks to everyone who is developing a great tool. Thank you.

And reason I'm here is because i have question something.

Please If you can help me, give me a helping hand T-T.

When i using Maya, my shelf and another UI were dockable&resizable.

It's very useful and so i love this function.

But now i realize something wrong.

When i using Maya. I was easily resizing shelf through click and drag.

But, I recently hear that this situation is out of the ordinary.

I was a little confused. Because it was a function that I really enjoyed and used well.

After when i reset my WorkSpace.

Really my shelf couldn't resizing through click and drag.

So i tried to find PreferenceSetting or PythonCommands or MEL file. I couldn't found it.

Although it was adjustable through this command execution.

import maya.cmds as mc

mc.layout("ShelfLayout",e=1,height=250)

it was only temporary :(.

Is there a function that allows me to go back and forth freely?
Something like through PreferenceSetting,PythonCommands form?

Hello @dkqjwl0126,

you can try the suggestion from this video: Adjusting Shelf Height in Maya. Basically, the procedure is based on a MEL script, that you can put in the Maya startup script folder to make the changes permanent:

layout -e -height xx ShelfLayout;

 The video shows the entire procedure.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Patrick
