Properties

<InfluenceHelper>.bias     Float    default: 0.0   --  animatable; float

A bias value applied to the falloff curve, used when EnableBias is true.

<InfluenceHelper>.BiasSelected     BooleanClass    default: true   --  boolean

Indicates that the bias value is applied to the falloff curve only when the helper is selected.

<InfluenceHelper>.EnableBias     BooleanClass    default: false   --  boolean

When true, the bias value is applied to the falloff curve.

<InfluenceHelper>.FalloffType     Integer    default: 0   --  integer

Indicates the type of falloff curve applied, where:

• 0 = Linear
• 1 = Smooth
• 2 = Smoother

<InfluenceHelper>.farColor     Color    default: (color 255 140.25 0)   --  RGB color

The color of the helper's far distance boundary.

<InfluenceHelper>.farDist     Float    default: 10.0   --  animatable; float; Far

The scale of the helper's far distance boundary.

<InfluenceHelper>.invert     BooleanClass    default: false   --  boolean

When true, the falloff curve is inverted.

<InfluenceHelper>.nearColor     Color    default: (color 255 0 0)   --  RGB color

The color of the helper's near distance boundary.

<InfluenceHelper>.nearDist     Float    default: 1.0   --  animatable; float; Near

The scale of the helper's near distance boundary.

<InfluenceHelper>.on     BooleanClass    default: true   --  boolean

Turns the influence helper on and off. When "off", the boundaries are still visible in the viewport, but not colored.

<InfluenceHelper>.showFar     BooleanClass    default: true   --  boolean

Turns the far boundary visibility on or off.

<InfluenceHelper>.showNear     BooleanClass    default: true   --  boolean
