pymel.core.modeling.querySubdiv

querySubdiv(*args, **kwargs)

Queries a subdivision surface based on a set of query parameters and updates the selection list with the results.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
action (a)		int
	Specifies the query parameter: 1 = find all tweaked verticies at level 2 = find all sharpened vertices at level 3 = find all sharpened edges at level 4 = find all faces at level If the attribute “level” is not specified then the query is applied to the current component display level. If the attribute level is specified then the query is applied to that level, either absolute or relative to the current level based on the “relative” flag state.
level (l)		int
	Specify the level of the subdivision surface on which to perform the operation.
relative (r)		bool
	If set, level flag refers to the level relative to the current component display level.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.querySubdiv

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

# find all tweaked verticies at current level
pm.querySubdiv( a=1 )
# find all tweaked verticies one level finer than current level
pm.querySubdiv( a=1, l=1, r=True )
# find all creased verticies at current level
pm.querySubdiv( a=2 )
# find all creased edges at current level
pm.querySubdiv( a=3 )
# find all faces at current level.
# You should work with the subdivision surface shape.
#
pm.querySubdiv( 'subdivShape1', a=4 )
# find all faces at level 1.
#
pm.querySubdiv( 'subdivShape1', a=4, level=1, relative=False )
# find all faces at the next finest level from the current one.
#
pm.querySubdiv( 'subdivShape1', a=4, level=1, relative=True )
