using $OS in a rop confilicts with unexpandedString() method in afanasy.py
Posted: Thu Jan 26, 2017 5:30 pm
Heya Timur,
We use $OS.$F4.exr for vm_picture and $OS.$F4.ifd for soho_diskfile by convention. This allows us to name and version the images and ifds by simply renaming the rop.
However, in afanasy.py (version 2.2, line 504) you are setting:
In our case, unexpandedStrings() returns $OS.$F4.exr (as expected), however, when it's actually evaluated, it returns the name of the afanasy rop, and not the mantra rop in question.
This results in ifd files and renders all being named (typically) afanasy1.$F4.ifd and afanasy1.$F4.exr respectively.
Thoughts? I'm hoping there is a handy workaround, without having to branch your afanasy.py file.
Best,
G
