Sets a user preference and returns the previous setting. Some of these user preference
settings correspond to the available settings in the User Preference dialog box, and
some correspond to preferences that can be set from the Main Control Panel. For a list
of possible settings, see UserPreference.
Note: The "AutoInspectEnabled" (siAutoInspect) preference
cannot be changed permanently through scripting. For more information, see
Property Editor Automatic Inspection.

# # This example demonstrates how to temporarily change the user's # AutoInspect preference (if enabled, property pages always pop # up for objects newly created via command). It also illustrates # how Softimage automatically reverts any scripting change to this # preference after the script runs. # from win32com.client import constants as cns app = Application # Current value of AutoInspect app.LogMessage( app.GetUserPref(cns.siAutoInspect) ) # Toggle the orginal value and re-log the value app.SetUserPref( cns.siAutoInspect, not(app.GetUserPref(cns.siAutoInspect)) ) app.LogMessage( app.GetUserPref(cns.siAutoInspect) ) # If your AutoInspect preference was enabled originally, the History Log # would display the following: # INFO : True # INFO : False # VERBOSE : Restoring preference changed by script: Interaction.autoinspect # If your AutoInspect preference was disabled originally, the History Log # would display the following: # INFO : False # INFO : True # VERBOSE : Restoring preference changed by script: Interaction.autoinspect |
