Multiple arguments in a function. Passing info through functions. - '' not found'

Question

# Error: RuntimeError: file <maya console> line 13: Object '<function save_snapshots at 0x000001757D101EB8>' not found. #

I am working on a script to create uv snapshots. Currently, I'm stuck on getting "save_snapshots" to get the integer that "uv_snap_res" is supposed to give.

In my UI, the 'save' button is using partial and I don't fully understand how that works. If I move save_snapshots behind 'texSizeControl' in the order of commands, it just simply doesn't run (I think?).

Was hoping to have a little help explaining how passing arguments works when using functions, and the order of operations when it comes to the "partial" thing... The only reason I'm this far is because of this site and finding examples in other areas. The whole radio buttons thing is a total challenge and I don't know if I fully have it working correctly :/ sorry.

any help or advice you have to offer I am all ears!!

    print get_snapshot_res

    radioCol = mc.radioCollection(texSizeControl, query=True, sl=True)
    getSelectRadioVal = mc.radioButton(radioCol, query=True, label=True)
    get_snapshot_res(getSelectRadioVal)

I think I posted it, you meant the error right? – PolyShifter May 26 '19 at 19:00 — PolyShifter, May 26 '19 at 19:00

Try to remove the *args where there is no need, you should write your script like this :

cmd SNAPSHOT need(FULLPATH, RES, UVRANGE)
ui set resolution
ui set png name
ui set path
ui select the uvRange
snapshot button send -> res, name, path, uvRange
get ui RES
get ui name and get ui path to create FULLPATH
get ui UVRANGE
gather all this get into one cmd to launch SNAPSHOT

====================================

import maya.cmds as mc
# GATHER
def ui_save_snapshots(texSizeControl, *args):
    # *args is only used when the def is inside ui
    # here it is gathering information to launch the maya command
    RATIO = get_snapshot_res(texSizeControl)
    path = 'something to get the path'
    save_snapshots(path, RATIO)
# GET RES
def ui_get_snapshot_res(label):
    radioCol = mc.radioCollection(texSizeControl, query=True, sl=True)
    RATIO = mc.radioButton(radioCol, query=True, label=True)
    return RATIO
SNAPSHOT
def save_snapshots(path, resolution, uvRange=[0,1,0,1]):
    # this def is a without any ui
    # path = "/marza/proj/fuji2019/work/Prop/trap/sim/everyone/simRig/images/outUV.jpg"
    uMin, uMax, vMin, vMax = uvRange
    cmds.uvSnapshot(o=True,ff='jpg', xr=resolution, yr=4096, aa=True, r=255, g=255, b=255, n=path, uMin=uMin, uMax=uMax, vMin=vMin, vMax=vMax)

def save_snapshots_ui():
    myWindow = 'Create UV Snapshots'
    if mc.window(myWindow, exists=True):
        mc.deleteUI(myWindow)
    mc.window(myWindow, title = myWindow)
    mc.columnLayout(adjustableColumn=True)
    mc.text(label='Choose your resolution for UV Snapshots', font='obliqueLabelFont')
    texSizeControl = mc.radioCollection()
    saveRadio1k = mc.radioButton(label='1024')
    saveRadio2k = mc.radioButton(label='2048')
    saveRadio4k = mc.radioButton(label='4096')
    saveRadio8k = mc.radioButton(label='8192')
    texSizeControl = mc.radioCollection(texSizeControl, edit=True, select=saveRadio2k )
    # send textSiZeControl to passValue 
    mc.button(label='save', command= partial(passValue, texSizeControl))
