Connecting Vector To Vector Array

[_dk_]

Hello,

How can one connect a vector to an array of vectors? Somehow like skincluster has all the matrices connected to its "matrix" attribute (which is in fact an array of matrix attributes).
I've created a node which has an array of vectors attribute and trying to connect translate component to it. When I try to do connectAttr locator.translate myNode.inputTrans or connectAttr locator.translate myNode.inputTrans[0] - both fail (inputTrans was created as MFnData::kVectorArray without any errors and is seen as one of the attributes).

Thank you!

You can't

See maya has 2 different things multis and arrays. arrays are one attribute of a array data whereas a multi is a array of one data.

myNode.inputTrans[0]

works for multi attributes because they have x amount of slots. Array attributes do NOT, they just have 1 slot. So either you put the whole array or none at all.

Its rather trivial and usefull to a make a multi to array nodem, and array to multi node in the api.

You can howevr set the array if you wish.
