Class Description

Base class for skin deformer (FbxSkin) and vertex cache deformer (FbxVertexCacheDeformer).

The corresponding deformer types are FbxDeformer::eSkin and FbxDeformer::eVertexCache. A deformer can be binded to a geometry (FbxGeometry) to act on its shape. Typically, some objects under the deformer are animated, and via the deformer, the geometry is animated too.

A skin deformer contains clusters (FbxCluster). Each cluster acts on a subset of the geometry's control points, with different weights. For example, a mesh of humanoid shape can have a skin attached, that describes the way the humanoid mesh is deformed by bones. When the bones are animated, the clusters act on the geometry to animate it too.

A vertex cache deformer contains a cache (FbxCache). The cache contains animation information for every control point of the geometry.

This flag is available for backward compatibility with older version of FBX files and should not be used anymore. All the animation layering system has been moved to the FbxAnimLayer and FbxAnimStack classes.
void	SetMultiLayer (bool pMultiLayer)
	Set multi-layer state flag.
bool	GetMultiLayer () const
	Get multi-layer state.
