I can't seem to run "cmds.play(state=False)" to stop maya playback from the script editor. They only seem to execute after playback is stopped. What gives? I am creating some custom hotkeys and they don't seem to do anything.
Try proceeding anyways. Make them into actual user runtime commands and set up the hotkeys to see if they work the way you actually want to use them. I think the script editor may have a different pipe to the interpreter or something.
