v4.0

Creates and adds a UserDataBlob or CustomProperty to a Shader object.

Property Shader.AddProperty( Object in_Preset, Boolean in_Branch, String in_name );

oReturn = Shader.AddProperty( Preset, [BranchFlag], [Name] );

CustomProperty, UserDataBlob or UserDataMap, depending on the preset that was used.

Parameter	Type	Description
Preset	String	This argument contains either the name of a Property Preset or a string with the filename or full path to a Preset file. Note: Only CustomProperty Presets, UserDataBlob Presets, and UserDataMap Presets are valid for shaders. The type of property that is created is determined by this argument. For example, "CustomProperty" creates an empty CustomProperty and "UserDataBlob" creates a UserDataBlob.
BranchFlag	Boolean	False is the only supported value. Default Value: false
Name	String	Represents the name of the new property (see SIObject.Name). If not specified the object is named based on the Preset argument.

JScript Example

	This example demonstrates how to add CustomProperties under a Shader.
