Detailed Description

Camera set node function set.

MFnCameraSet is the function set that is used for manipulating cameraSet nodes.

A cameraSet node defines a list of camera layeres to be processed in order, defining a multi-layer viewing of the scene. A camera layer consists of an object set to be used by the layer, and a camera through which the set is viewed. Individual layers may be marked active or inactive and ordered arbitrarily.

Examples:
cameraSetSubclass/testExCameraSetCmd.cpp, and testCameraSetCmd/testCameraSetCmd.cpp.
