The
unreal.ControlRigContextMenuContext.get_control_rig_blueprint()
this function has been deprecated in Unreal Engine 5.7. As a result, the Python scripts included with the Control Rig plugin no longer work and need to be updated to use GetControlRigAssetInterface.
The affected scripts need to be updated. They can be found here:
UE5.7\Engine\Plugins\Animation\ControlRig\Content\Python\RigHierarchy\{code}
add_controls_for_selected.py
add_null_above_selected.py
align_items.py
rename_items.py
set_bone_reference_pose.py
Steps to Reproduce
right click on a bone in the control rig editor in UE5.7
you will noticed that the Add Controls For Selected and Add Null Above Selected buttons are greyed out
There's no existing public thread on this issue, so head over to Questions & Answers just mention UE-357260 in the post.
