pymel.core.context.tumbleCtx¶

tumbleCtx(*args, **kwargs)¶

This command can be used to create, edit, or query a tumble context.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types
alternateContext (ac)		bool
	Set the ALT+LMB and ALT+SFT+LMB to refer to this context.
autoOrthoConstrain (aoc)		bool
	Automatically constrain horizontal and vertical rotations when the camera is orthographic. The shift key can be used to unconstrain the rotation.
exists (ex)		bool

history (ch)		bool

image1 (i1)		unicode

image2 (i2)		unicode

image3 (i3)		unicode

localTumble (lt)		int
	Describes what point the camera will tumble around: 0 for the camera’s tumble pivot1 for the camera’s center of interest2 for the camera’s local axis, offset by its tumble pivot
name (n)		unicode

objectTumble (ot)		bool

orthoLock (ol)		bool
	Orthographic cameras cannot be tumbled while orthoLock is on.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
orthoStep (os)		float
	Specify the angular step in degrees for orthographic rotation. If camera is orthographic and autoOrthoConstrain is toggled on the rotation will be stepped by this amount.
toolName (tn)		unicode

tumbleScale (ts)		float
	Set the rotation speed. A tumble scale of 1.0 will result in in 40 degrees of rotation per 100 pixels of cursor drag.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.tumbleCtx

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

pm.tumbleCtx( 'tumbleContext', ts=1.0, lt=False, ac=False, ol=True )
