Description

Work In Progress

This Python tool for Maya will let you rotate selected objects by 90 degrees in a positive or negative direction.

That is all.

It is more interesting as an example of a frame-less Qt window with lots of custom paintEvent() and mouseEvent() work.

Installation and Use

  1. Place the entire directory qt_img_resource_browser in your Maya scripts directory or a directory that Maya can load Python scripts from.

    ├- maya
   ├- scripts
      ├- 90degree
         ├- app.py
         ├- interface.py
         ├- etc . . .

  2. Restart Maya.

  3. Launch the window with this python command:

    # Python
from maya_90_degree import interface
interface.load()
Notes

This should work in any recent version of Maya that has Qt but it has only been tested in Maya 2018.

Known Issues

  • Moving the mouse too quickly while dragging the window causes it to be left behind.
