listSets( [object] , [allSets=boolean], [extendToShape=boolean], [object=name], [type=uint])
Note: Strings representing object names and
arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the
synopsis.
listSets is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT
editable.
The listSets command is used to get a list of all the sets an
object belongs to. To get sets of a specific type for an object use
the type flag as well. To get a list of all sets in the scene then
don't use an object in the command line but use one of the flags
instead.
