Hi dannie25,
Thanks for trying out my script. Here's some slightly more detailed instructions:
1. Copy "volumeMaintainer.mel" into your "maya/scripts" directory
2. Restart Maya
3. Create a hotkey or shelf button with this command:
source "volumeMaintainer.mel";
(Alternatively, you could also run that command directly from the command line / script editor.)
To use:
1. Select a mesh
2. Run the above command (using hotkey or shelf button or directly from command line, etc.)
3. Move/Rotate/Scale/Smooth vertices to your heart's desire
4. When you're done, run the command again to switch it off
Please let me know how it goes. I am copying these instructions to the description page as quick reference for other users.
Best regards,
Leon
