Naming Curves With cmds.ikHandle ikSplineSolver

[Peteman12]

Is there any way to name the Curve generated with cmd.ikHandle (sol="ikSplineSolver"), or do I have to do so manually?

Manually. Same goes for the various IK nodes such as the effector.

I found a way around my problem. I was worried that I would have to rename the object by its default name, but I was worried about the possibility of the name already existing in the scene. But I discovered that if I have ikSpines = mc.ikHandle({insert information here}), I get a list, so in order to rename the values, I just need to do mc.rename(ikSpines[1]) for the effector and mc.rename(ikSpines[2]) for the curve.

Yes, exactly. That's what I meant by manually. You get the list of created nodes and rename each in turn.

Good job! 🙂

I didn't know that you got a list.
