class JointCluster(*args, **kwargs)¶

class counterpart of mel function jointCluster

The joint cluster command adds high-level controls to manage the cluster percentage values on a bound skin around a joint. JointClusters are one way to create smooth bending behaviour on skin when joints rotate. . a —- aboveBound . ____________a_________ . a . Joint1 a Joint2 . _____________a_______ . a b — belowBound . a b . b . b . b . b Joint3 CVs/vertices between Joint1 and aaaaa (aboveBound) receive only translation/rotation/scale from Joint1. CVs vertices between aaaa and bbbb transition between translation/rotatation/scale from Joint1 and Joint2. CV2 beyand bbbbb (below bound) receive only translation/ rotation scale from Joint3.

getAboveBound(**kwargs)¶

Specifies the where the drop-off begins in the direction of the bone above the joint. A value of 100 indicates the entire length of the bone. The default value is 10.
