flexor is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This command creates a flexor. A flexor a deformer plus a set of
driving attributes. For example, a flexor might be a sculpt object
that is driven by a joint's x rotation and a cube's y position.

Properties |
-type(-typ) |
string |
 |
|
Specifies which type of flexor. To see list of valid types, use
the "flexor -query -list" command. |
|
-deformerCommand(-dc) |
string |
|
|
String representing underlying deformer command string. |
|
-atJoints(-aj) |
|
|
|
Add a flexor at joints. Flexor will be added at each of the
selected joints, or at all joints in the selected skeleton if the
-ts flag is specified. |
|
-atBones(-ab) |
|
|
|
Add a flexor at bones. Flexor will be added at each of the
selected bones, or at all bones in the selected skeleton if the -ts
flag is also specified. |
|
-toSkeleton(-ts) |
|
|
|
Specifies that flexors will be added to the entire skeleton
rather than just to the selected joints/bones. This flag is used in
conjunction with the -ab and -aj flags. |
|
-list(-l) |
|
 |
|
List all possible types of flexors. Query mode only. |
|
-noScale(-ns) |
|
|
|
Do not auto-scale the flexor to the size of the nearby
geometry. |
|
-name(-n) |
