  • naming_example.py Example for how to override hiero naming scheme. Copyright (c) 2012 The Foundry Visionmongers Ltd. All Rights Reserved. . The following example provides a set of functions for extracting clip, name and root names from a clip. The example aims to read a specific (hypothetical) convention for DPX files, in which filepaths look like:. . …/longpath/shotname/version_01/001.dpx. . The current implementation of Hiero fails to retrieve a useful name for the clip due to the obscure naming convention. followed, so we would like to extract something like:. . Clip: shotname_v01. Version: shotname_v01. Root: shotname. . Notes:. - “Root” is the object which groups together several versions. - Clip and Version will often receive the same name, but we might want them to be different. For instance, we could. hide version information from clips. - When Root and Version information is displayed together in the application, the string “Root > Version” is usually. used. Note that if they share the start of the name, it will be omitted for version, e.g. “shotname > v01”.
