My picker has disappeared...

Post by fabien » Fri Jun 28, 2013 8:58 am

Hello everyone,
firstable thank you for this awesome RIG and the picker, i'm currently using it for an animation at home, just to keep myself busy and for fun ;)
But......
I am using maya 2013, with the last version of malcom and the last picker version also. Everything was working properly (installation of the picker with malcom as a reference) but yesterday i think I've done something wrong. I've double clicked on the picker so it has moved to the "channel box/Layer Editor", cause i wanted it back as normal I've clicked on the red crosses to close it but now when i click the AbxPicker button on my custom bar nothing happen.... it is driving me crazy cause i know the picker is hidding somewhere, just waiting for me ;)
I've tried to reinstall the picker, creating a new button but it doesn't change anything, and on the script editor I have no error message just the classic :

loadPlugin -qt "C:/Users/Fabi1/Documents/maya/2013_Picker/AnimSchoolPicker.mll";
AnimSchoolPicker();

Can someone help me please?
Thank you,
Fabien

If you clicked on the red cross (like the picture below), you didn't close the Picker plug-in, just the Malcolm picker. If so, you just need to reload the malcolm picker file.

hi, Thank you but i've been watching the video before (like all the vids about the animschool picker) and its not helping....
As i told you, i can't even open the animshool picker box, so i can't load (or reload the face and profile .pkr files)

To let you know also, when i right click on the channel box/Layer Editor i can see that the animschoolpicker is suppose to be here but whenever i turn it on or off it doesnt do anything, it is still doesnt appear.

I'm completly stuck cause without the picker i can't animate properly Malcom......

Seems like Picker is just hiding. Maybe embedded.
Have you tried Window>Raise Application Windows?
If you right click on the channel box, does it list it?

That's very strange. Perhaps you can uninstall the plugin (in the plug-in editor) and reinstall it.

Fabien and Dim, if you email admissions @ animschool, we can give you a new version of Picker which may fix the issue.

This issue appears to be fixed now. Please re-download AnimSchool Picker!
