SimpleWSMMod

See Also: Class SimpleWSMMod.

The SimpleWSMMod class supplies most of the methods needed to implement a Space Warp plug-in (world space modifier).

To be a Simple WSM modifier, the following assumptions are made:

image\bullet.gif The modifier only modifies the geometry channel.

image\bullet.gif The modifier uses an instance of a class derived from Deformer to do the modifying.

The main methods are:

GetDeformer()

This method is used to retrieve the callback object that will handle the deformation.

UpdateUI()

This method is called when the user has moved the time slider to a new time and the UI parameters need to be updated to reflect the correct value at the new time.

GetValidity()

The SimpleWSMMod class calls this method to retrieve the validity interval of the modifier.
