HELP!: Copy Attributes Script

[dbsmith]

//Copy trans/rotate/scale attributes from first selected object to all others
{

string $objs[] = `ls -sl`;

string $from = $objs[0];

float $trans[] = `getAttr ( $from + ".translate")`;

float $rot[] = `getAttr ( $from + ".rotate")`;

float $scale[] = `getAttr ( $from + ".scale")`;

for($i=1;$i < size($objs); $i++){



setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".translateX") $trans[0];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".translateY") $trans[1];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".translateZ") $trans[2];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".rotateX") $rot[0];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".rotateY") $rot[1];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".rotateZ") $rot[2];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".scaleX") $scale[0];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".scaleY") $scale[1];

setAttr ($objs[$i] + ".scaleZ") $scale[2];

}

}



This will take the attributes of the first object you select and transfer them to all other selected objects. But this means that the objects will all stack up in the same place. It should be easy enough for you to modify the code yourself now if you arent getting the desired results (eg if you just want translate, not rotate or scale, just comment out a few lines. Good luck

Thanks! It works perfectly!

I now have to try and build on that to apply it to my original problem. It shouldn't be too difficult for me, but I may require further help in the not-too-distant future, so please stay subscribed to this thread! :)

Thanks again!
