A couple of useful procedures for finding related Proxy references

If you have Proxy references in a scene it can be tricky to find which ones are related.

For any given reference node $refNode, try this:

string $allRefNodes[] = `getRelatedProxies($refNode)`; // if no proxies are found, an empty string is returned

// Mel procedure found in : <MAYA_LOCATION>/scripts/others/getRelatedProxies.mel

And to find the proxyManager node, use this:

string $proxyManager = `proxyManager($refNode)`;

// Mel procedure found in : <MAYA_LOCATION>/scripts/others/proxyUtils.mel

These procedures are shipped with Maya. Pythonites will need to transcribe these MEL procedures.
