Customize channelbox / layerEditor

[nathan1347]

Hello
How would I add new custom tabs beside Display/Render/Anim in channelbox/layerEditor ?
Where to look for best place to hook ?

Hi. You can add another tab like this for example.

//get layers formLayout contents
string $LayersFormChildren[] = formLayout -q -ca $gLayerEditorForm;

// layers tabLayout
print ($LayersFormChildren[0] + "\n");

// create some UI to attach
string $attachTab = columnLayout -p $LayersFormChildren[0] newLayerTabCL;
button -l "My UI Button" -c "sphere" -p newLayerTabCL;

// add another tab to layers tabLayout
tabLayout -e -tl $attachTab  "Added tab" -st $attachTab $LayersFormChildren[0];

Cheers.
