四、maya python plugin

只是作简单的了解。

1区别

（1）Python scripts:可以在Maya的script editor 执行。用于扩展maya.cmd模块。

The import statement below is typically found at the head of Maya Python scripts:

import maya.cmds as cmds

(2) Python plugins:

Maya Python plug-ins can be used to define your own commands, nodes, shaders, constraints, file translators, and deformers to name but a few customizable elements.

import maya.OpenMaya       as OpenMaya        # Common classes
import maya.OpenMayaMPx    as OpenMayaMPx     # Classes from which to inherit
import maya.OpenMayaAnim   as OpenMayaAnim    # Animation classes
import maya.OpenMayaFX     as OpenMayaFX      # Effect classes (hair, particles, fluids)
import maya.OpenMayaRender as OpenMayaRender  # Rendering classes
import maya.OpenMayaUI     as OpenMayaUI      # User interface classes
import maya.OpenMayaCloth  as OpenMayaCloth   # Cloth classes
