SetEnvelopeRefPoses

Introduced

1.0

Description

Set new values for Envelope deformer objects' reference poses. After an envelope has been assigned, you can change the reference pose of the envelope.

The reference pose is the stance that the envelope and its deformers return to when you use the Reset Actor command. It is also the pose that determines the initial weighting of points to deformers based on proximity.

Scripting Syntax

SetEnvelopeRefPoses( [InputObjs] )

Parameters

Return Value

Returns the new envelope deformer objects.

Examples

VBScript Example

'
' This example sets new reference poses on a null object used 
' as a deformer for a sphere. 
'
' Create the null to use as a deformer
set oDeformer = GetPrim( "Null" )

' Create the sphere to deform
set oEnvelope = CreatePrim( "Sphere", "NurbsSurface" )

' Assign the deformer to the envelope
ApplyFlexEnv oEnvelope & ";" & oDeformer, False

' Change the position of the deformer so that we have a different
' position to use as the new reference pose 
Translate oDeformer, 3.21404651141284, 2.8656647389832, _
