Dynamic library stub function

Flags:
Long name (short name) Argument Types Properties
addChannel (adc) unicode ../../../_images/create.gif

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.psdEditTextureFile

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

# Create a Photoshop file with an image layer from a disk image file
pm.psdTextureFile(xr=512, yr=512, ifn=('C:\\tex.jpg', 'layerSet1', 1), psf='C:\\final.psd')
# // Saved file: C:\final.psd #

# Create a poly plane
pm.polyPlane(w=10, h=10, sx=10, sy=10, n='pPlane1')
pm.select('pPlane1')

# Create a snapshot file containing the UVs of pPlane1
pm.uvSnapshot(n='C:\\uvSnapshot.iff', xr=512, yr=512, o=True)
# // Saved file: C:\uvSnapshot.iff #

# Edit the "final.psd" file which we have created, add a UV snapshot layer from snapshot file and an image layer from disk image file
pm.psdEditTextureFile(aci=('layerSet2', 'C:\\tex1.jpg'), ssi='C:\\uvSnapshot.iff', uvt=1, psf='C:\\final.psd')
