pymel.core.modeling.polyUnite

polyUnite(*args, **kwargs)

This command creates a new poly as an union of a list of polys If no objects are specified in the command line, then the objects from the active list are used.

Flags:
Long name (short name) Argument Types Properties
caching (cch) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed
constructionHistory (ch) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 

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.

mergeUVSets (muv) int ../../../_images/create.gif
 

Specify how UV sets will be merged on the output mesh. The choices are 0 | 1 | 2. 0 = Do not merge. Each UV set on each mesh will become a new UV set in the output. 1 = Merge by name. UV sets with the same name will be merged. 2 = Merge by UV links. UV sets will be merged so that UV linking on the input meshes continues to work. The default is 1 (merge by name).Common flags

name (n) unicode ../../../_images/create.gif
 
Give a name to the resulting node.
nodeState (nds) int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 

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.

object (o) bool ../../../_images/create.gif
 
Create the result, or just the dependency node (where applicable).Common flags

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.polyUnite

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

pm.polySphere( n='plg1' )
pm.polyCube( w=2, h=.2, d=2, n='plg2' )
pm.move( 0, -1.1, 0 )
pm.polyCube( w=2, h=.2, d=2, n='plg3' )
pm.move( 0, 1.1, 0 )
pm.polyUnite( 'plg1', 'plg2', 'plg3', n='result' )
pm.rotate( 0, 0, 90, 'result' )
