Python scripting improvements
- Many methods still need one to use javascript. Make js and Python 1:1 - so I don't have to write javascript, in python. See setProjectExportPreset/getProjectExportPreset
- In Python it seems impossible to set export preset settings without actually also exporting. Getting/Setting settings should be possible without side effects.
- Setting Output Template programattically, does not also update fileFormat field to match.
``` python
import substance_painter.js as js
js.evaluate(‘alg.mapexport.setProjectExportPreset(“MyPreset”)’) # MyPreset has fileFormat: tga
js.evaluate(‘alg.mapexport.getProjectExportOptions()’)
```
Returns {'bitDepth': 8, 'dilation': 16, 'exportShaderParams': False, 'exportUSD': False, 'fileFormat': 'bmp', 'padding': 'Infinite'}
If I do this through the UI, it will set the field to match the file format in the preset on the otherhand.
- No option to set File type to use same as template. “Based on output template”
```python>>> js.evaluate("alg.mapexport.getProjectExportOptions()")
{'bitDepth': 0, 'dilation': 16, 'exportShaderParams': False, 'exportUSD': False, 'fileFormat': '', 'padding': 'Infinite'}
>>> js.evaluate("alg.mapexport.setProjectExportOptions({'bitDepth': 0, 'dilation': 16, 'exportShaderParams': false, 'exportUSD': false, 'fileFormat': '', 'padding': 'Infinite'})")
RuntimeError: ExportError: Settings are left unchanged. The object contains invalid attributes. Invalid value '0': must be a string within [16,16f,32,32f,8]File format '' is not supported. The supported formats are bmp,jpg,jif,jpeg,jpe,jng,pgm,png,tga,targa,tif,tiff,psd,psb,hdr,exr,j2k,j2c,jp2,webp
```
- Multiline support for the python console. It is beyond painful to to test python in Painter.
