Hi,
Is there a quick and sneaky python way to get the maximum/minimum value for an fcurve? and does someone have an example of cleaning an fcurve via a script.
Cheers.

Funny story… I had min/max functions as part of a patch for f-curves and was asked “what would that be used for?”
Basically you have to loop over the f-curve and run .evaluate() on each point and store the min/max yourself.
And there’s a clean f-curve script in the script directory I believe.
Min/max wouid be a handy little switch in the envelope modifier…
And I looky but I don’t find the f-curve clean file… Which scripts folder?
Guess clean_fcurve is a C function, sorry.
Maybe it should be thought of as a bounding box. The values would be in the Y direction and the X would contain time.

Thanks for that Richard,
The simplify actually does the cleaning with its own routine, whereas I was after an example of bpy.ops.graph.clean or bpy.ops.action.clean from a script. … actually just got it working “sorta”… from the UI in the GRAPH EDITOR
I think that a clean API method in the fcurves collection would be handy eg
fcurves.clean(fcurve=fcurve,threshold=0.001)
