Select object and Open in another instance of Maya
I will like to have the ability to open a file in a scene selecting it and open in another instance of Maya. Sometimes the scene is complex. We build in all, with no assets. When some changes needed or some verify, this would helpfull.
With ctrl+c ctrl+v on another maya Instance, i need to remove the pasted_ suffix and when I move back to the first Instance of maya i need to remove too.
I will like also that the Hierarchy would be respected. If my object is located in a specific group, i want it leave there.
Anyway, no one told me: use ctrl+c and ctrl+v on my 20 years Maya user. It's funny.
well.. for this you can have a single Mel button/hotkey that Exports selection as some tmp file and in the new Maya instance opens with that file. Export Selection usually opens with preserved hierarchy.
Assuming, you are on Win and have c:/tmp directory, the script will look like this:
This script export and save and open another instance of maya. What i will like to have is something like Send to Mudbox, where when I finisc i can send back to maya.
Exactly. You were asking for Maya, not for Mudbox. For Mudbox you change the 2nd line to
start mudbox.exe -file C:/tmp/maya_test.ma"
Be more specific, what do you want to export from Maya to Mudbox, and what to fetch from Mudbox. You were asking for hierarchy preservation, does Mudbox will preserve that hierarchy?
