New Default Controller Functions

The following functions create instances of the default controller class for each animatable value type. If the default controller has been customized by the user, the respective function below will return an instance of the customized class. The default controller for each animatable value type can be customized in the “Assign ... Controller” dialog accessible through Track View. Available in 3ds Max 2017 and higher.
