[API] new functions for duplicated objects

jms · February 23, 2006, 2:46am

A few additionnal functions for the Blender.Object module .
get/set functions for DupliFrames, DupliGroup, DupliRot, DupliNoSpeed.
Easy to do and perhaps usefull .

Example :


from Blender import Object
OBJECT=Object.Get('Cube')
print OBJECT.getDupliFrames()
OBJECT.setDupliFrames(1)
print OBJECT.getDupliGroup()
OBJECT.setDupliGroup(1)
print OBJECT.getDupliRot()
OBJECT.setDupliRot(1)
print OBJECT.getDupliNoSpeed()
OBJECT.setDupliNoSpeed(1)

More complicated :

Object_getDupliMatrices()
Be happy, it returns real matrices and one can play with in Mathutils functions .
Exemple :


import Blender
from Blender import Object, Scene
       
OBJET=Object.Get('Cube') #has dupliverts or dupliframes buts set
DUPLIOBJET=OBJET.getDupliMatrices()
if DUPLIOBJET!=[]:
   SCENE=Scene.GetCurrent()         
   for O in DUPLIOBJET:
     print DUPLIOBJET.index(O)
     E=Object.New('Empty') 
     SCENE.link(E)
     E.setMatrix(O)
Blender.Redraw()
