clusterHandle

Go to: Related nodes. Attributes.

This node represents the handle by which a cluster's transformations can be manipulated. It is primarily just a way of selecting the cluster in the scene, though it also stores the transformation information needed for the cluster's deformation.

Long name (short name)	Type	Default	Flags
origin (or)	double3
The location in local space of the displayed 'C' icon.
originX (ox) distance (double) 0.0cm X position of the displayed 'C' icon.
originY (oy) distance (double) 0.0cm Y position of the displayed 'C' icon.
originZ (oz) distance (double) 0.0cm Z position of the displayed 'C' icon.
clusterTransforms (x)	compound	n/a
Bundled transformation matrices for the cluster deformation.
preWeightedMatrixTransform (pre) matrix identity Represents the transformation in the DAG above the weighted node.
weightedMatrixTransform (wt) matrix identity The transformation of the weighted node.
postWeightedMatrixTransform (post) matrix identity Represents the transformation in the DAG below the weighted node.
weightedNode (wn)	Message	n/a
This attribute is connected to the weighted node (ie. the one to which the cluster percentages are applied), if one was specified. Otherwise, the transform node above this node is the one to which the percentages are applied.
