I've been exploring how Maya works underneath the hood. I found a MEL command called renderPartition that is supposed to set the partition to render, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Here are my nodes, showing the newly created partition.
I try to set the render partition to renderPartition2 with the renderPartition command, but it doesn't 'stick', nor does it give an error message.
Note that if I connect lambert2SG to the default renderPartition, everything works as expected. Any suggestions, or pointing me to a book or documentation would be appreciated. Thank you.
