pymel.core.modeling.bevel

static modeling.bevel(*args, **kwargs)

The bevel command creates a new bevel surface for the specified curve. The curve can be any nurbs curves.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
bevelShapeType (bst)		int
	Shape type: 1 - straight cut, 2 - curve out, 3 - curve in Default:1 Advanced flags
caching (cch)		bool
	Modifies the node caching mode. See the node documentation for more information. Note:For advanced users only.
constructionHistory (ch)		bool
	Turn the construction history on or off
cornerType (ct)		int
	Corner type: 1 - linear, 2 - circular Default:2
depth (d)		float
	The depth for bevel Default:0.5
extrudeDepth (ed)		float
	The extrude depth for bevel Default:1.0
joinSurfaces (js)		bool
name (n)		unicode
	Name the resulting object
nodeState (nds)		int
	Modifies the node state. See the node documentation for more information. Note:For advanced users only. Common flags
numberOfSides (ns)		int
object (o)		bool
	Create the result, or just the dependency node
polygon (po)		int
	The value of this argument controls the type of the object created by this operation 0: nurbs surface1: polygon (use nurbsToPolygonsPref to set the parameters for the conversion)2: subdivision surface (use nurbsToSubdivPref to set the parameters for the conversion)3: Bezier surface4: subdivision surface solid (use nurbsToSubdivPref to set the parameters for the conversion)
range (rn)		bool
	Force a curve range on complete input curve Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
tolerance (tol)		float
	The tolerance for bevel offsets Default:0.01
width (w)		float
	The width for bevel Default:0.5

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevel

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Bevel (one) active curve with a width and depth of 1.5:
pm.bevel( w=1.5, d=1.5 )

# Create a single-sided bevel (at start) surface using the specified
# curve (with the default dimensions):
pm.bevel( 'curve1', ns=2 )
