What it does

Picker Builder is a Python script for Maya that analyzes character rigs and generates picker layouts. It identifies body, face, and finger controls, renders a character silhouette, creates selection sets from forward- and inverse-kinematic attributes, and arranges controls. Picker Viewer provides editing tools for existing pickers, including custom scripts, objects, selection sets, styles, symmetry, and animation controls. The trial version generates up to 10 pickers, while the full version is available from the vendor.
