Creates and connects an FCurve to this
parameter. This method differs from the Parameter.AddFCurve method in that
only the key value array and function curve type are required as
arguments. The key value array contains the key frame and value
only, the tangents are calculated automatically.
If no type argument is specified, then the type of fcurve added
will be based on the parameter's type (which is configured in the
parameter's definition). You can override the default fcurve type
associated with a parameter by adding the SPDL attribute
'FCurveType = Standard;' or 'FCurveType = Integer;'.
By default standard fcurves will be created for parameters of type:
siDouble, siFloat, siInt4, siInt2, siByte, siUInt4, siUInt2 and
siUByte (see siVariantType for
further details on types). If the parameter represents a boolean,
then a boolean fcurve will be created.
oReturn = Parameter.AddFCurve2( [KeyValueArray], [Type] ); |
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| KeyValueArray | Variant | The array may be a 1- or 2-dimensional array. For 2 dimensional arrays the first dimension must define the key values. The key value consists of the key time (in frames) and the key value ( in value units ). For bezier fcurves the tangents will be calculated automatically. |
| Type | siFCurveType | The type of the FCurve.
Default Value: defined by parameter type |
/*
This example demonstrates how to set up and populate an fcurve
using the z-position values from an animation fcurve created
by setting keys on a null. The newly created z-position fcurve
is then applied to a sphere's z-position.
