I have just begun scripting in Maya, and therefor need some help.
The goal is to create a script that generates a textfile that looks like this:
group house
{
object window
object door
object funnel
position = 23 23 23
rotation = 45 16 23
scale = 1 1 1
} What my Maya script is doing is that it simply goes through the stuff in the scene using ls -as. All my groups in the scene are named like house_grp, where the three last letters should tell the script that it is reading a group.
My problem is:
How do I, from a string, reads the last three characters?
The script look like this so far:
for($each in `ls -as`)
{
string $str_each = $each;
// Code here!
print $str_each;
}
Where it says "Code here!" I want to read the three last characters of the $str_each variable. But how?
