This is a neat little bit of integration to the script editor's popup
menu that's going into the latest build of the Red9 Pack, v1.24.
I've added a
new menu item to the ScriptEditor RMB popup, "Red9_InspectFunction", which uses either the whatIs
command for MEL or Python's inspect module to then lookup the source
function file for the highlighted text, if found it will open up the mel
or python module in the default editor on your system. Really handy for
debugging!
Since this video I've also managed to get it to run from the history scroll as well as the editor itself which makes it even easier.
Red9 StudioTools have been born out of frustration at Autodesks reluctancy to add some of these core features and workflows into Maya itself. Why OpenSource, well I want to give something back to the industry as I feel damn sorry for studios without the benefit of a large R&D department to craft pipelines around them. The Studio Pack is designed to speed up a modern animation pipeline. All comments and suggestions are welcomed. For more info mail me :)
