Properties |
|
-control(-ctl)
|
|
|
|
Query only. Returns the top level control for this editor.
Usually used for getting a parent to attach popup menus.
Caution: It is possible for an editor to exist without a
control. The query will return "NONE" if no control is present.
|
|
-defineTemplate(-dt)
|
string
|
|
|
Puts the command in a mode where any other flags and arguments are
parsed and added to the command template specified in the argument.
They will be used as default arguments in any subsequent
invocations of the command when templateName is set as the
current template.
|
|
-docTag(-dtg)
|
string
|
|
|
Attaches a tag to the editor.
|
|
-exists(-ex)
|
|
|
|
Returns whether the
specified object exists or not. Other flags are ignored.
|
|
-filter(-f)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the name of an itemFilter object to be used with this editor.
This filters the information coming onto the main list
of the editor.
|
|
-forceMainConnection(-fmc)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the name of a selectionConnection object that the
editor will use as its source of content. The editor will only
display items contained in the selectionConnection object. This is
a variant of the -mainListConnection flag in that it will force a
change even when the connection is locked. This flag is used to
reduce the overhead when using the -unlockMainConnection
, -mainListConnection, -lockMainConnection flags in immediate
succession.
|
|
-highlightConnection(-hlc)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the name of a selectionConnection object that
the editor will synchronize with its highlight list. Not all
editors have a highlight list. For those that do, it is a secondary
selection list.
|
|
-lockMainConnection(-lck)
|
|
|
|
Locks the current list of objects within the mainConnection,
so that only those objects are displayed within the editor.
Further changes to the original mainConnection are ignored.
|
|
-mainListConnection(-mlc)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the name of a selectionConnection object that the
editor will use as its source of content. The editor will
only display items contained in the selectionConnection object.
|
|
-panel(-pnl)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the panel for this editor. By default if
an editor is created in the create callback of a scripted panel it
will belong to that panel. If an editor does not belong to a panel
it will be deleted when the window that it is in is deleted.
|
|
-parent(-p)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the parent layout for this editor. This flag will only
have an effect if the editor is currently un-parented.
|
|
-selectionConnection(-slc)
|
string
|
|
|
Specifies the name of a selectionConnection object that the
editor will synchronize with its own selection list. As the user
selects things in this editor, they will be selected in the
selectionConnection object. If the object undergoes changes, the
editor updates to show the changes.
|
|
-stateString(-sts)
|
|
|
|
Query only flag. Returns the MEL command that will create an
editor to match the current editor state. The returned command string
uses the string variable $editorName in place of a specific name.

|
string
|
|
|
The path used for writing/reading take data through the
editor.
|
|
-unParent(-up)
