v4.0
Adds an FCurve editor to the layout. It should be associated
with an FCurve Parameter (see CustomProperty.AddFCurveParameter).
This control is a full FCurve editor, and should not be confused
with the Animation Divot.
Like other Parameters you can add custom Logic code to the Layout
that is called whenever the FCurve changes. This is demonstrated in
the examples.
oReturn = PPGLayout.AddFCurve( ScriptName, [Height] ); |
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
ScriptName | String | Scripting name of the Parameter, which must be of type FCurve. The call does not fail even if no parameter by this name exists. However in that case the control is not drawn as part of the layout. |
Height | Long | Height of the control. Note: It is not necessary to set the
width because the control automatically resizes according to the
size of the property page.
Default Value: 300 |
