Maya animation tool

Pickify - Maya Plugin

Pickify is a free selection set tool for Maya animators by Ehsan Bayat. Assign a hotkey to a set and select fingers, legs, brows or mouth controls instantly, the job you would normally reach for a Maya picker to do. Hide or show parts of a geometry to focus on one section, and export sets to reuse in other scenes or share. Pickify creates no actual sets, so your Outliner stays clean.

What it does

Three selection problems Pickify solves without a Maya picker

The problem

Clicking the same controls over and over

Assign a hotkey to a set of controls, fingers, legs, brows or mouth, and select them in one keystroke.

The problem

Geometry in the way of the part you are posing

Hide or show parts of a geometry so you can focus on a specific section.

The problem

Selection sets that clutter the Outliner

Pickify does not create actual Maya sets, so the Outliner stays clean.

Inside the tool

Hotkey selection

Select a set of controls with a single hotkey.

SETS

VISIBILITY

Isolate a section of the mesh to focus on it.

EXPORT

Reuse sets in other Maya scenes, or share them with friends.
