set_control_offset(value)
set_create_rotate_control(bool_value)
set_negate_right_scale(bool_value)
set_offset_axis(axis_letter)
create()
delete_setup()
get_control_entries(title)

Get entries for every control. For example, title could be “xform”. It would return all the xform nodes.

get_sub_control_entries(title)

Get entries for every sub control. For example, title could be “xform”. It would return all the xform nodes.

set_attach_joints(bool_value)

Turn off/on joint attaching.

Parameters:bool_value (bool) – Wether to attach joints.
set_auto_switch_visibility(bool_value)

When attaching more than one joint chain. This will attach the control group visibility to the switch attribute on the first joint.

set_buffer(bool_value)

Turn off/on the creation of a buffer chain.

Parameters:bool_value (bool) – Wehter to create the buffer chain.
set_build_hierarchy(bool_value)
set_control_color(color)

Set the color of the control based on an integer value.

set_control_offset_axis(axis_letter)

This sets the axis that the control curve cvs will offset to. This happens by rotating the control in 90 degrees on the axi. This is good for lining up the control cvs to a different axis than its default.

Parameters:axis_letter (str) – The letter of the axis to offste the control cvs around. ‘x’, ‘y’ or ‘z’
set_control_parent(parent_transform)

Sets the parent of the control group for this rig. This usually should get run after create.

set_control_shape(shape_name)

Sets the look of the controls, based on predifined names.

set_control_size(float_value)

Sets the default size of the control curve.

set_joints(joints)

Set the joints that the rig should work on.

Parameters:joints (list) – Joints by name.
set_setup_parent(parent_transform)

Sets the parent of the setup group for this rig. This usually should get run after create.

set_sub_control_color(color)

Set the color of sub controls.

set_sub_control_shape(shape_name)

Sets the look of the curve for the sub controls.

set_sub_control_size(float_value)

Sets the default size of the sub control curve.

set_sub_visibility(bool_value)

This controls wether sub controls are visible by default after building the rig.

Parameters:bool_value (bool) –
side_center = ‘C’
side_left = ‘L’
side_right = ‘R’
