Purpose of Script:
--------------------
This is the script, with this one can edit animation in 3d view by creating the arc in the same path of animated control & update the animation later by adjusting that arc.
If animation is there on translation, then this script is useful.
Animated control's translation & rotation attributes should be unlocked.
Location:
----------
Copy 'as_AnimArcEditorMain.pyc' and 'as_AnimArcEditorMain.ui' both files to the following location:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\maya\2011\scripts
Usage of Script:
------------------
Run these commands from python window
from as_AnimArcEditorMain import *
AnimArcEditor.as_AnimArcEditor()
Updates: as_AnimArcEditor_v1.1.0
--------------------------------------
1. With this version, Qt designer window is given. Qt designer needs to be installed
Download QT Designer installer from here: ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.5.3-mingw.exe
2. Now if any animation is there on rotation, It will be retrived
Limitations:
-------------
1. As on now it is working only on Maya 2011, since It needs PyMel.
2. It needs to be tested with Global Scaling option
If you use two versions at a time like 2009 & 2011 and python variables set to 2009, then this problem will come.
# Error: Bad magic number in C:/Documents and Settings/khlug/My Documents/maya/2011-x64/scripts\as_AnimArcEditorMain.pyc
(Note: 'Bad Magic Number' arises always due to 'Variables set to different Maya version')
