Interfaces > Core Interfaces > ParamCollectorOps |
This Core Interface provides access to the Parameter Collector dialog.
When set to true, the Parameter Collector floater becomes visible. When set to false, it is hidden.
Get/Set the state of the Multiple Edits icon. When set to true, multiple parameters can be controlled simultaneously.
Get/Set the state of the Absolute/Relative icon. When set to true (icon unchecked), the spinners display the absolute values. When set to false (icon checked), the spinners will display relative changes.
The following properties control the custom TrackBar Keys Filter "Parameter Collector Keys"
Controls whether the TrackBar will show animation keys of the parameters displayed by the Parameter Collector. Default is false.
Controls whether the TrackBar will show selected keys. Default is false.
Controls whether the TrackBar will show keys of parameters NOT shown in the Parameter Collector. Default is false.
Creates a new Parameter Collection.
Clones the current Parameter Collection.
Deletes the current Parameter Collection.
Returns the number of Parameter Collections.
Returns the index of the current Parameter Collection.
Sets the name of the indexed Parameter Collection to the given string.
Returns the name of the indexed Parameter Collection as string
Opens the "Links to Object" dialog.
Picking an object stores the current collection using a live link as part of the object in the scene. Any change to the collection instantly updates the version of the collection stored in the object.
Link to Object has basically the same function as Put To Object except that it guarantees an up-to-date stored version of the collection, especially when merging the object into another scene that is a common production workflow.
Links the current collection to the specified node. See above for details on linking collections to scene objects.
Unlinks the collection from the object it was linked to.
Opens the "Put To Object" dialog.
Putting to object stores the current collection as part of the object in the scene.
Although parameter collections are stored with the scene in which they're created, you can use this function to transfer a collection to a different scene. After putting the collection to an object, save the scene. Open or create another scene, merge the object from the saved scene to the new one, and then use Get from Object.
You can also back up, organize and streamline parameter collections by putting and getting different collections to and from various objects in your scene. Just remember that if you add, reorder, or remove parameters or rollouts to a collection that has been put to an object, you must then put it to the object again so the changes are saved to the collection. For a "live" update, see Linking to objects described above.
Opens the "Get from Object" dialog to retrieve a collection stored in an object using either Put To Object or Link To Object.
Puts the collection to the specified node. See above for details on putting collections to scene objects.
Gets a put or linked collection from the specified node. See above for details.

Deletes the indexed rollout and moves all parameters from the deleted rollout to the next rollout.
Opens the Rename Rollout dialog for the selected rollout.
Renames the indexed rollout to the given name.
Returns true if there is a selected rollout.
Returns the index of the selected rollout.
Returns the number of rollouts in the indexed Collection.
Sets the rollout name of the indexed rollout in the indexed collection to the given string.
Returns the the rollout name of the indexed rollout in the indexed collection as a string value.
Returns the number of parameters in the indexed rollout of the indexed collection as integer value.
Returns true if there are any parameters, false otherwise.
Returns true if there are any selected parameters, false otherwise.
Returns the number of selected parameters as integer value.
