Garment_Maker-SuperClass:modifier; super-superclass:MAXWrapper -classID:#(940967468, 1610249612) The Garment_Maker modifier turns a shape into a garment panel to be used in cloth simulations. It provides optimal meshing for achieving wrinkles and cloth-like behavior.
Constructor:
Garment_Maker...
Garmentize2 ... Properties:
<Garment_Maker>.density Float default: 1.0 -- float Get/Set the value of the "Density" spinner.
<Garment_Maker>.autoMesh BooleanClass default: true -- boolean Get/Set the state of the "Auto mesh" checkbox. When true (default), the meshing is performed automatically. When false, the meshing is performed manually by either pressing the Mesh It button in the UI or by calling the gmakerOps.meshit() method documented below.
<Garment_Maker>.preserve BooleanClass default: true -- boolean Get/Set the state of the "Preserve" checkbox.
<Garment_Maker>.relax BooleanClass default: false -- boolean Get/Set the state of the "Relax" checkbox.
<Garment_Maker>.outputType Integer default: 0 -- integer; Output_Type Get/Set the output type radio buttons state. Possible values are:
0 - Arranged Panels
1 - Preserved Surface
2 - Flat Panels
<Garment_Maker>.figure UndefinedClassdefault: undefined -- node Get/Set the Figure object.
<Garment_Maker>.stretchMapping BooleanClass default: true -- boolean; Stretch_Mapping Get/Set the state of the "Stretch Mapping Coordinates" checkbox.
<Garment_Maker>.striptexturescale Float default: 0.1 -- float; Stip_Texture_Scale Get/Set the strip texture scale value.
<Garment_Maker>.stripwidth Float default: 0.5 -- float; Strip_Width Get/Set the strip width value.
<Garment_Maker>.showMesh BooleanClass default: false -- boolean; Show_Mesh Get/set whether to show the mesh.
<Garment_Maker>.showSeams BooleanClass default: true -- boolean; Show_Seams Get/set whether to show the seams.
