How do I get list of all types in Maya's ls command?


In Maya there is a ls command which lists all objects in a scene (or DAG).

pm.ls()

Here is reference to ls command.

We can list specific type of element by passing type parameter.

pm.ls(type="joint")

Some possible types are, camera, mesh, joint etc.

My question is what are all types available to ls() command? Documentation doesn't help much. Where do I find it?


Solution

  • Here is the flag to query node types :

    cmds.ls(nt=True)
