[objects]
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.

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Argument types |
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)
|
string
