Public Attributes
FBColor	Color
	Read Write Property: The animation layer color.

bool	Lock
	Read Write Property: If true, the layer is locked. You cannot modify keyframes on a locked layer.
bool	Mute
	Read Write Property: If true, the layer is muted. A muted layer is not included in the result animation. Cannot be applied to the BaseAnimation Layer.
bool	Solo
	Read Write Property: If true, the layer is soloed. When you solo a layer, you mute other layers that are at the same level in the hierarchy, as well as the children of those layers. Cannot be applied to the BaseAnimation Layer.

Detailed Description

Used to access animation layer properties and modify them.

Changing the various properties of the layers will modify how the animation will be interpreted. For example, muting a layer will mute all the animation contained on the layer. You can access the animation layer object from the take, usign the FBTake::GetLayer() and FBTake::GetLayerByName(). See the FBTake class for more details.

See samples: AnimationLayers.py, MergeAnimationLayers.py.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

FBAnimationLayer()

FBAnimationLayer	(	str	pName,
		int	pLayerID
	)

Constructor.

Parameters

pName	Name of the animation layer.
pLayerID	ID to set for the new layer.

Member Function Documentation

AddChildLayer()

AddChildLayer

(

FBAnimationLayer

pAnimationLayer

)

Add a child to the layer.

Layer ID of the new child layer might change after parenting depending where the child layer was originally located.

Parameters

pAnimationLayer

Layer to set as a child.

FBDelete()

FBDelete

(

)

Virtual FBDelete function.

See sample: DeleteHierarchy.py.

GetChildCount()

int GetChildCount

(

)

Get the child layer count of this layer.

The count will only includes direct child of the layer.

Returns

Child layer count, or -1 if unsuccessful

GetChildLayer()

FBAnimationLayer GetChildLayer

(

int

pIndex

)

Get the nth child layer of this layer.

Parameters

pIndex

Index of the child layer to get.

Returns

Child animation layer located at pIndex

GetCompleteChildHierarchy()

GetCompleteChildHierarchy

(

FBArrayTemplate< FBAnimationLayer >

pChildArray

)

Get the all the children hierarchy of the layer, including children not directly connected to this layer.

Parameters

pChildArray

Array of child layers, will be filled by the function.

Python

The function takes no parameter and returns a Python list. ex : lArray = lAnimationLayer.GetCompleteChildHierarchy()

GetLayerIndex()

int GetLayerIndex

(

)

Get the layer index.

Returns

The layer index in the current layer hierarchy. This value will change if the hierarchy is modified. Return -1 if unsuccessful.

GetParentLayer()

FBAnimationLayer GetParentLayer

(

)

Get the parent layer.

Returns

A pointer to the parent layer or NULL if the layer doesn't have a parent.

IsSelected()

bool IsSelected

(

)

Verify if the layer is selected.

Returns

True if the layer is selected, false otherwise.

SelectLayer()

SelectLayer	(	bool	pValue,
		bool	pExclusiveSelect
	)

Select the layer.

This is the equivalent of selecting the layer in the UI in the Animation Layer Editor tool

Parameters

pValue	True if the layer will be selected, false otherwise.
pExclusiveSelect	If pValue is true, passing true will deselect all the other layers, creating an exclusive selection, it will also set the layer as the current layer.

SetParentLayer()

SetParentLayer

(

FBAnimationLayer

pParentLayer

)

Set the parent layer.

Parameters

pParentLayer

A pointer to the parent layer or NULL if you want to unparent the layer.
