Hi,

I just upgraded UVLayout to V.2.06.3 Pro version...

I downloaded the Maya Plugin V.2. Installed the Script, Icon and Shelf.

I can't get it to "run" UVLayout, and I know that I'm supossed to modify the .mel Script, correct? I was wondering, wha tpart is it?

My Script looks likethis now:

//Path to UVLayout
global proc string uvlayout_home()
{
if( `about -win`)
{
return "C:/Program Files/headus UVLayout v2 Demo";
// return "C:/Program Files/headus UVLayout v2 Hobbyist";
// return "C:/Program Files/headus UVLayout v2 Professional";
// return "C:/Program Files (x86)/headus UVLayout v2 Demo";
// return "C:/Program Files (x86)/headus UVLayout v2 Hobbyist";
// return "C:/Program Files (x86)/headus UVLayout v2 Professional";
}
else
{
return "/Applications/headus-UVLayout-Pro.app";
// return "/Applications/headus-UVLayout-Hobby.app";
// return "/Applications/headus-UVLayout-Demo.app";

Do I delete everything BUT the "return "/Applications/headus-UVLayout-Pro.app"; section?

Thanks for your help.

Can't believe this! It worked...

This is what I did (for you non-code-writing Mac users):

1) Open the script uvLayout_open.mel...

2) change the path string to the following:

//Path to UVLayout
global proc string uvlayout_home()
{
return "/Applications/headus-UVLayout-Pro.app";
}


3) Save the file - make sure Maya is closed, or re-launch, and voila!

Sweet!

Interesting ... the code you showed in the original posting should have worked as displayed, because on a Mac its supposed to fall through to the "else" section.

Anyway, its great you managed to fix it yourself!
