pymel.core.animation.flow

flow(*args, **kwargs)

The flow command creates a deformation lattice to `bend’ the object that is animated along a curve of a motion path animation. The motion path animation has to have the follow option set to be on.

Flags:
  • divisions : dv (int, int, int) [query]

    This flag specifies the number of lattice slices in x,y,z.The default values are 2 5 2.When queried, it returns the TuInt32 TuInt32 TuInt32

  • localCompute : lc (bool) [query]

    This flag specifies whether or not to have local control over the object deformation.Default value: is on when the lattice is around the curve, and is off when the lattice is around the object. When queried, it returns a boolean

  • localDivisions : ld (int, int, int) [query]

    This flag specifies the extent of the region of effect.Default values are 2 2 2.When queried, it returns the TuInt32 TuInt32 TuInt32

  • objectCentered : oc (bool) [query]

    This flag specifies whether to create the lattice around the selected object at its center, or to create the lattice around the curve.Default value is true.When queried, it returns a booleanFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
