Class Description

A shape describes the deformation on a set of control points, which is similar to the cluster deformer in Maya.

For example, we can add a shape to a created geometry. And the shape and the geometry have the same topological information but different position of the control points. With varying amounts of influence, the geometry performs a deformation effect.

bool SetBlendShapeChannel ( FbxBlendShapeChannel * pBlendShapeChannel )

Search for all occurrences

Set the blend shape channel that contains this target shape.

Parameters:

pBlendShapeChannel Pointer to the blend shape channel to set.

Returns:: true on success, false otherwise.

FbxBlendShapeChannel* GetBlendShapeChannel ( ) const

Search for all occurrences

Get the blend shape channel that contains this target shape.

Returns:: a pointer to the blend shape channel if set or NULL.

FbxGeometry* GetBaseGeometry ( )

Search for all occurrences

Get the base geometry of this target shape.

Returns:: a pointer to the base geometry if set or NULL.

Remarks:: Since target shape can only connected to its base geometry through blend shape channel and blend shape deformer. So only when this target shape is connected to a blend shape channel, and the blend shape channel is connected to a blend shape deformer, and the blend shape deformer is used on a base geometry, then to get base geometry will success.

int GetControlPointIndicesCount ( ) const

Search for all occurrences

Get the length of the arrays of control point indices and weights.

Returns:: Length of the arrays of control point indices and weights. Returns 0 if no control point indices have been added or the arrays have been reset.

int* GetControlPointIndices ( ) const

Search for all occurrences

Get the array of control point indices.
