pymel.core.system.undoInfo

undoInfo(*args, **kwargs)

This command controls the undo/redo parameters.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties
chunkName / cn unicode ../../../_images/create.gif
 
Sets the name used to identify a chunk for undo/redo purposes when opening a chunk.
closeChunk / cck bool ../../../_images/create.gif
 

Closes the chunk that was opened earlier by openChunk. Once close chunk is called, all undoable operations in the chunk will undo as a single undo operation. Use with CAUTION!! Improper use of this command can leave the undo queue in a bad state.

infinity / infinity bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Set the queue length to infinity.
length / l int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Specifies the number of items in the undo queue. The infinity flag overrides this one.
openChunk / ock bool ../../../_images/create.gif
 

Opens a chunk so that all undoable operations after this call will fall into the newly opened chunk, until close chunk is called. Once close chunk is called, all undoable operations in the chunk will undo as a single undo operation. Use with CAUTION!! Improper use of this command can leave the undo queue in a bad state.

printQueue / pq bool ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Prints to the Script Editor the contents of the undo queue.
redoName / rn unicode ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Returns what will be redone (if anything)
redoQueueEmpty / rqe bool ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Return true if the redo queue is empty. Return false if there is at least one command in the queue to be redone.
state / st bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Turns undo/redo on or off.
stateWithoutFlush / swf bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 

Turns undo/redo on or off without flushing the queue. Use with CAUTION!! Note that if you perform destructive operations while stateWithoutFlush is disabled, and you then enable it again, subsequent undo operations that try to go past the destructive operations may be unstable since undo will not be able to properly reconstruct the former state of the scene. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

undoName / un unicode ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Returns what will be undone (if anything)
undoQueueEmpty / uqe bool ../../../_images/query.gif
 
Return true if the undo queue is empty. Return false if there is at least one command in the queue to be undone.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.undoInfo

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# Turn undo on, with an infinite queue length
pm.undoInfo( state=True, infinity=True )
# Turn undo on, with a queue length of 200
pm.undoInfo( state=True, infinity=False, length=200 )
# Turn undo off
pm.undoInfo( state=False )
# Query the queue length
pm.undoInfo( q=True, length=True )
# Result: 200 #
