FBXExporterSetParam [arg] [value]
 
 
 

The setparam scripts set the specified argument for export where [arg] is a recognized export parameter and [value] is an appropriate value for the supported parameter. For example, to prevent the export of cameras:

FBXExporterSetParam “Cameras” false

FBXExporterSetParam returns “OK” if successful or ”unsupplied” if it is sent an unrecognized parameter.

FBXExporterSetParam returns “unsupplied” if the wrong number of arguments are passed.

FBXExporterSetParam recognizes the following parameter and values:
