transformCompare( [dagObject dagObject] ,
[root=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and
arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the
synopsis.
transformCompare is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT
editable.
Compares two transforms passed as arguments. If they are the same,
returns 0. If they are different, returns 1. If no transforms are
specified in the command line, then the transforms from the active
list are used.
| int |
0 if successful, 1 if transform1 and transform2 are not
determined to be equal. |
root
| Long name (short name) |
Argument types |
Properties |
root(r) |
boolean |

|
Compare the root only, rather than the entire hierarchy below
