I have few locators in the scene and a nurbs sphere, I want to first duplicate the sphere and then move the sphere to the locator's position.

I am trying following code but it is not working, please help...


float $y=0;
float $x=0;
float $z=0;
$selected=`ls -sl`;
for ($selObj in $selected)
{
$x=`getAttr $selObj.tx`;
$y=`getAttr $selObj.ty`;
$z=`getAttr $selObj.tz`;

setAttr "nurbsSphere1.tx" $x;
setAttr "nurbsSphere1.tx" $y;
setAttr "nurbsSphere1.tx" $z;
}

try this, select locators then select obj and run

$nodes = `ls -sl`;
$obj = $nodes[size($nodes)-1];

for ($loc in $nodes)
{
if ($loc == $obj)
break;

$pnt = `pointPosition $loc`;
$dup = `duplicate $obj`;
xform -ws -t $pnt[0] $pnt[1] $pnt[2] $dup[0];
}
delete $obj;

Its not working still. I have 5 locators and a nurbsSphere. I want to duplicate the sphere and then move that sphere to locator1's position. I want it in loop for all the selected sphere.

Thanks...

should work i just tested it then, do you have them selected in the right order (first select locs then shift select sphere then run the script, if so did you get an error and line number?
