Installation modes

There are two different installation modes for the script:

  • Into Maya's Scripts Folder

This method copies the script into the user's script folder.

os path
linux ~//maya/scripts
windows \Users\\Documents\maya\scripts
mac os x ~/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/scripts

This will generate a shelf button that uses the following startup command.

import dwpicker
dwpicker.show()
  • From the Current Folder

This method creates a button command in the selected shelf, pointing to the script's current location.

Note: If you move the script from its current location, the shelf button will no longer work.
