<p class="p_Normal" style="text-indent: -24px; line-height: 1.80; margin: 0 0 0 48px;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Two ways to set the picker namespace in designer mode:</span></p>

<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.80; margin: 0 0 0 24px;"><img alt="lightbulb" width="16" height="16" style="margin:0;width:16px;height:16px;border:none" src="lightbulb.png"/><span style="font-size: 9pt;"> You can also turn off the use of picker namespace on item level.</span></p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.80; margin: 0 0 0 24px;"> </p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="text-indent: 0; line-height: 1.80; padding-left: 13px; margin-left: 0;"><span class="f_Normal" style="font-family: Arial,'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande','Lucida Sans';display:inline-block;width:13px;margin-left:-13px">▪</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sub-Namespace:</span></p><p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">For most types of picker items (Select-button, command button, attr-Button, slider), you are also able to set up a sub-namespace during the designing process.</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">A sub-namespace is an addition to the picker namespace.</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">Say your picker namespace is set to "myCharacter", and there is a select-button has the sub-namespace "bodyRig:chestRig", the select-button contains a member called "chest_ctl", then the final Maya control will turn out to be this:</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;"><span style="width:24px;display:inline-block"> </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">myCharacter:bodyRig:chestRig:chest_ctl;</span></p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">This means when you click this select-button in animator mode, the tool will try to select "myCharacter:bodyRig:chestRig:chest_ctl" in the Maya scene.</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">The sub-namespace is for supporting the reference-based rig architecture. An asset with this kind of architecture may references another shared asset inside, such as facial rigs, or body rigs, which means there will be a layered namespace within that rig. </p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">With the sub-namespace property, all these controls can still be organized within one picker file/node.</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.80; margin: 0 0 0 24px;"> </p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="text-indent: 0; line-height: 1.80; padding-left: 13px; margin-left: 0;"><span class="f_Normal" style="font-family: Arial,'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande','Lucida Sans';display:inline-block;width:13px;margin-left:-13px">▪</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Namespace Separator and Sub-Namespace Separator:</span></p><p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">Starting from v2.3, user can customise the separator characters with namespace and sub-namespace. An empty separator means restore to DCC default, e.g. for Maya, it is ':'.</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;">With both separators set to "_", the example above will be like:</p>
|
||
<p class="p_Normal" style="line-height: 1.38; margin: 0 0 0 24px;"><span style="width:24px;display:inline-block"> </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">myCharacter_bodyRig:chestRig_chest_ctl;</span></p>
