Introduced
1.0
Description
Applies an operator on a single object. ApplyOperator acts on one input object at a time (it only creates and connects one operator at a time). To apply the same operator to multiple objects at once, use ApplyOp instead. For a list of available operators, see Operator Presets.
This command supports both group-level and port-level ConnectionSets. The syntax for group-level and port-level connection sets differs slightly in that group-level connection sets can accept objects and resolve the underlying port connections. For more information, see the ConnectionSet topic.
Note: ApplyOperator doesn't create output objects. It expects them to be supplied in the connection set or the input list.
Scripting Syntax
ApplyOperator( PresetObj, [ConnectionSet], [ConnectType] )
