pymel.core.nodetypes.PolyHelix

class PolyHelix(*args, **kwargs)

class counterpart of mel function polyHelix

The polyHelix command creates a new polygonal helix.

getAxis(**kwargs)

This flag specifies the primitive axis used to build the helix.Q: When queried, this flag returns a float[3].

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyHelix

getCaching(**kwargs)

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyHelix

getCoils(**kwargs)

This flag specifies the number of coils in helix.C: Default is 1.0Q: When queried, this flag returns a float.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyHelix

getConstructionHistory(**kwargs)

Turn the construction history on or off (where applicable). If construction history is on then the corresponding node will be inserted into the history chain for the mesh. If construction history is off then the operation will be performed directly on the object.Note:If the object already has construction history then this flag is ignored and the node will always be inserted into the history chain.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
