pymel.core.context.tumbleCtx

tumbleCtx(*args, **kwargs)

This command can be used to create, edit, or query a tumble context.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name Argument Types Properties
alternateContext / ac bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Set the ALT+LMB and ALT+SFT+LMB to refer to this context.
autoOrthoConstrain / aoc bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Automatically constrain horizontal and vertical rotations when the camera is orthographic. The shift key can be used to unconstrain the rotation.
autoSetPivot / asp bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Automatically set the camera pivot to the selection or tool effect region
exists / ex bool  
   
history / ch bool  
   
image1 / i1 unicode  
   
image2 / i2 unicode  
   
image3 / i3 unicode  
   
localTumble / lt int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 

Describes what point the camera will tumble around: 0 for the camera’s tumble pivot1 for the camera’s center of interest2 for the camera’s local axis, offset by its tumble pivot

name / n unicode  
   
objectTumble / ot bool  
   
orthoLock / ol bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Orthographic cameras cannot be tumbled while orthoLock is on. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
orthoStep / os float ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 

Specify the angular step in degrees for orthographic rotation. If camera is orthographic and autoOrthoConstrain is toggled on the rotation will be stepped by this amount.

toolName / tn unicode  
   
tumbleScale / ts float ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif ../../../_images/edit.gif
 
Set the rotation speed. A tumble scale of 1.0 will result in in 40 degrees of rotation per 100 pixels of cursor drag.
