Getting child nodes recursively

Traversing the Scene Graph

Getting the properties of a node as a point in space

 

Traversing the Scene Graph > 

Most relationships are two-way

You can get from a node a reference to its parent, as well as to the scene that contains it:

KFbxNode myParentNode = pNode->GetParent();

KFbxScene myScene = pNode->GetScene();

In general, all relationships in FBX are two-way: if FBX object A has a reference to FBX object B, then object B will also have a reference to object A. For example:

• A child node “knows” its parent, and a parent node knows each of its children.
• A node knows its scene, and a scene knows the root node of the tree that contains all nodes in the scene.
• A node knows its constraints, and a constraint knows which nodes it constrains.

These two-way relationships are managed by connections, an FBX data structure. For more information see Connections.
