Synopsis

jointDisplayScale( float , [absolute=boolean], [ikfk=boolean])

Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.

jointDisplayScale is undoable, queryable, and editable.

This action modifies and queries the current display size of skelton joints. The joint display size is controlled by a scale factor; scale factor 1 puts the display size to its default, which is 1 in diameter. With the plain format, the float argument is the factor with respect to the default size. When -a/absolute is used, the float argument refers to the actual diameter of the joint display size.

Flags

absolute, ikfk
Long name (short name) [argument types] Properties
absolute(a) boolean createquery
Interpret the float argument as the actual display size as opposed to the scale factor.

In query mode, this flag needs a value.
ikfk(ik) boolean createquery
Set the display size of ik/fk skeleton joints.

In query mode, this flag needs a value.
Flag can appear in Create mode of command Flag can appear in Edit mode of command

Return value

None
