polyMoveFacet(*args, **kwargs)

Modifies facet of a polygonal object. Translate, move, rotate or scale facets.

Flags:
Long name (short name) Argument Types Properties
attraction (att) float ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
This flag specifies the attraction, related to magnet. C: Default is 0.0. The range is [-2.0, 2.0]. Q: When queried, this flag returns a float.
caching (cch) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Create a sphere.
pm.polySphere( n='plg', r=5 )

# Translate selected facets along Y by 1.0 in world coordinates
pm.polyMoveFacet( 'plg.f[300:359]', 'plg.f[380:399]', ty=1.0 )

# Scale selected facets by (0.5, 0.5, 0.5);
pm.polyMoveFacet( 'plg.f[0:59]', 'plg.f[360:379]', sx=0.5, sy=0.5, sz=0.5 )
