Maya keeps switching shelf icons language on restart

[The-Digital-Shaman]

Hi there,

Maya keeps switching language for some of the custom scripts that I acquired.

What the hell?

In Shelf Editors for each command, one can choose MEL or Python as the Language.

For some scripts, Maya keeps changing it every single time.

I even tried recreate the icons.

Does anyone have an experience with that?

Btw, it is not Maya LT.

Cheers,

DS

I think I just discovered a silly Maya's limitation.

One can't use two different languages for single and double click.

Is that so?

Ok, one can do workaround by wrapping and sourcing a script from another language quite easily.

i.e. To run MEL script as Python;

import maya.mel as mel

mel.eval('source "DS/DS_Display_Toolkit.mel"')
