pymel.core.datatypes.equivalentSpace

equivalentSpace(space1, space2, rotationOnly=False)

Compare the two given space values to see if they are equal

space1 : int or str
the first space to compare (may be either the integer enum value, or the api enum name - ie, “kPostTransform” - or the pymel enum name - ie, “postTransform” )
space2 : int or str
the seoncd space to compare (may be either the integer enum value, or the api enum name - ie, “kPostTransform” - or the pymel enum name - ie, “postTransform”)
rotationOnly : bool
If true, then compare the spaces, assuming we are only considering rotation - in rotation, transform is the same as preTransform/object (the reason being that in maya, preTransform means rotation + translation are both defined in the preTransform/object coordinate system, while transform means rotation is defined in preTransform/object coordinates, while translate is given in the postTransform space... which matches the way maya applies transforms)
