bake_to_animation(nodes, min_time=None, max_time=None)

bake the animation with nice settings that fix flipping

get_min_max_time()
set_min_max_time(min_value, max_value)
playblast(filename)

Playblast the viewport to the given filename path.

Parameters

filename (str) – This should be the path to a quicktime .mov file.

quick_driven_key(source, target, source_values, target_values, infinite=False, tangent_type='linear')

A convenience for create set driven key frames.

Parameters

  • source (str) – node.attribute to drive target.

  • target (str) – node.attribute to be driven by source.

  • source_values (list) – A list of values at the source.

  • target_values (list) – A list of values at the target.

  • infinite (bool) – The bool attribute.

get_keyframe(node_and_attribute)

Given an node.attribute return input keyframe

get_input_keyframes(node, node_only=True)

Get all keyframes that input into the node.

Args

node (str): The name of a node to check for keyframes. node_only (bool): Whether to return just the keyframe name, or also the keyframe.output attribute.

Return

list: All of the keyframes connected to the node.

get_output_keyframes(node)

Get all keyframes that output from the node.

Parameters

node (str) – The name of a node to check for keyframes.

Return

list: All of the keyframes that the node connects into.

set_infiinity(keyframe, pre=False, post=False)

Given a keframe set the in and out infinity to linear.

Parameters

  • keyframe (str) – The name of a keyframe.

  • pre (bool) – Whether to set pre inifinity to linear.

  • post (bool) – Whether to set post infinity to linear.

Return

str: The name of the keyframe.
