Refresh an Attribute Editor template

If you have updated a template, you need to refresh it in order to synchronize the Attribute Editor with your changes.

To refresh an Attribute Editor template

1. Save your updated XML file.
2. Enter the MEL procedure refreshCustomTemplate into the Script Editor or the Command Line.

   The Attribute Editor refreshes without re-starting Maya.

   TipYou can assign this MEL command to a custom shelf item so it can be easily accessed. However, selecting this shelf item will only update the current template being displayed in the Attribute Editor.

To revert to the default Attribute Editor template

1. In the Attribute Editor, select one of the following options:
   • Show > Set Global View > Default
   • Show > Set Current View > Default
