Returns

str - Name of the node.

None - If node is not set.

exists()

def mMayaCore.referenceLib.Reference.exists

(

self

)

Check whether the node exists.

Checks whether node is None. Checks whether the node exists.

Exceptions

N/A

Returns

bool - Result.

setNode()

def mMayaCore.referenceLib.Reference.setNode	(		self,
			node
	)

Set node.

Returns False if the node is not a referenced node.

bool - Result.

isNodeReferenced()

def mMayaCore.referenceLib.Reference.isNodeReferenced (   node )

static

Check whether the given node is a referenced node.

Parameters

node	[ str | None | in ] - Name of the node.

Exceptions

N/A
