wrinkle is undoable, queryable, and editable.

The wrinkle command is used to create a network of wrinkles on a surface. It automatically creates a network of wrinkle curves that control a wire deformer. The wrinkle curves are attached to a cluster deformer.

Flags

axis, branchCount, center, crease, dropoffDistance, envelope, geometry, randomness, remove, style, thickness, uvSpace, wrinkleCount, wrinkleIntensity
Long name (short name) [argument types] Properties
-style(-st) radial|tangential create
Specifies the wrinkle style.
-center(-ct) double double double create
Specifies the center of the wrinkle.
-axis(-ax) double double double create
Specifies the plane of the wrinkle.
-dropoffDistance(-dds) double create
Specifies the dropoff distance around the center.
-wrinkleCount(-wc) int create
Specifies the number of wrinkle lines to be generated. Default is 3.
-branchCount(-brc) int create
Specifies the number of branches per wrinkle. Default is 2. END_COMMENEND_FLAG FLAG branchDepth bd int CREATE NO_QUERY NO_EDIT NO_MULTI COMMENT Specifies the depth of the branching. Default is 0.
-wrinkleIntensity(-wi) float create
Increasing the intensity makes it more wrinkly. Default is 0.5.
-envelope(-en) create
The envelope globally attenuates the amount of deformation. Default is 1.0.
-randomness(-rnd) float create
Amount of randomness. Default is 0.2.
-thickness(-th) float create
Wrinkle thickness. Default is 1.0.
-uvSpace(-uv) double double double double double create
1/2 length, 1/2 breadth, rotation angle, center u, v definition of a patch in uv space where the wrinkle is to be constructed.
-crease(-cr) string createmultiuse
Specifies an existing curve to serve as the wrinkle.
-geometry(-g) string
This flag does nothing. This flag will be removed post Maya2.0.
-remove(-rm)
This flag does nothing. This flag will be removed post Maya2.0.
