Naming Toolbox for Maya - Free Update 2

In this free update the number at the end of the name now works correctly if the object is parented or grouped. As well, the interface has been redesigned to be more intuitive. Now you can name objects exactly how you want in Autodesk Maya.

Hands down Malcolm341 creates the best useful scripts.

Hey malcolm, I'm a big fan of your work, so I am curious if we can build a custom polygon shape tool, like if I want to make a custom shape like a phone for ex and have it on the shelf for quick access, can we build that and how, because I really want to have a cylinder with quad top and bottom like tool handy

Oh man, thanks again for response on my email to create TB(group) name match, this saved me a lot of time already

I have a problem, When I click on the button, this message appears: // Error: line 1431: Invalid flag '-enableKeyboardFocus'

and i have service pack 6 and my maya version is 2018

This one just saved my day again Malcolm!!! 🙏Thank you:) Appreciate you!

would it be possible to add : sort objects by name, or is there a way to do that in maya natively?

[AlexTsekot]

Hey Malcolm, is there any script out there that can mass rename hypershade nodes? Been working on a scene setting up a few hundred materials and its a real nightmare...

[UCD]

It's astounding to me that Maya still hasn't fixed the renaming tool?! Liking the new changes. Thanks.

[devjitpaul]

would it be possible to add more increments? maybe upto 6 digits? or just let us specify the increment?

Is there a script out there that auto re assigns current materials to an object that was imported/ copypasted in? I always get duplicate materials. I can show you an example if you like :)

Hey Malcom! I have a feature request to run by ya. Is there a way to just have _high and _low without the number being added by default? This would create further individual baking groups in Marmoset so the cage is adjustable per object and now a whole group of objects. It requires a few steps to do that now so a button or something would be immensely helpful :D

[samcraftYT]

Great tool. DO you think you can add alphabetic increment to the list?

[AyushBakshi]

What was going on in their head when working on that rename function? What studio in the world need it to work like that... Either I'm not at their level to understand or they are underpaid dummies.

Lol the rename tool in Maya is the worst!!
