What is the syntax for query a compound attribute in mel (i.e. shape.pnts)?
i can do listAttrs shape.pnts and it returns pntx, pnty , pnty but how do i ask the values now? getAttr shape.pnts.pntx doesnt work nor does getAttr shape.pntx?

hello,

you need to specify the point index aswell...

getAttr pCube1.pnts[3];

this will return the x y z all together.

cheers,
