pymel.core.modeling.polyDuplicateEdge

polyDuplicateEdge(*args, **kwargs)

Duplicates a series of connected edges (edgeLoop)

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
caching (cch)		bool
	Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed
constructionHistory (ch)		bool
	Turn the construction history on or off (where applicable). If construction history is on then the corresponding node will be inserted into the history chain for the mesh. If construction history is off then the operation will be performed directly on the object.Note:If the object already has construction history then this flag is ignored and the node will always be inserted into the history chain.
deleteEdge (de)		bool
endVertexOffset (evo)		float
name (n)		unicode
	Give a name to the resulting node.
nodeState (nds)		int
	Defines how to evaluate the node. 0: Normal1: PassThrough2: Blocking3: Internally disabled. Will return to Normal state when enabled4: Internally disabled. Will return to PassThrough state when enabled5: Internally disabled. Will return to Blocking state when enabledFlag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
offset (of)		float
	Weight value controlling the relative positioning of the new edges. The range of values is [0.0, 1.0].
smoothingAngle (sma)		float
	Subdivide new edges will be soft if less then this angle.C: Default is 180.0Common flags
splitType (stp)		int
	Choose between 2 different types of splits. If this is set to 0 then the split type will be absolute. This is where each of the splits will maintain an equal distance from the associated vertices. If this set to 1 then the split type will be relative. This is where each split will be made at an equal percentage along the length of the edge.
startVertexOffset (svo)		float

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyDuplicateEdge

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

pm.polyTorus()
pm.polyDuplicateEdge( 'pTorus1.e[121:126]', of=0.5 )
