Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

namespaceInfo

Hey all,

I'm trying to figure out a way to query what objects are in each namespace in my file. Let's assume that I've imported and/or referenced a dozen objects with use namespace turned on so that they all reside in a unique namespace.

I can use 'namespaceInfo -lon' to get an array of my namespaces.
I can use 'namespaceInfo -ls ' to get an array of the objects in the current namespace.
However, I can find no way to get an array of a specified namespace.

I was hoping I could do something like:
string $nameSpaces[];
string $objects[];
$nameSpaces = `namespaceInfo -lon`;
$objects = `namespaceInfo -ls $nameSpaces[0] `;

That doesn't work though. I tried setting the namespace first:
namespace -set $nameSpaces[0];
but that seems to put me into a state where Maya can no longer find any of the other namespaces.

Thanks.
