Question:

I want to be able to change SLA settings with Xpresso.
For instance when you're far off from an object it looks like a good idea (sometimes) to scale the texture larger to get a more visible bumpmap - and when you closen up to the object the bump gets smaller
With 'normal' textures that's no problem by using distance in Xpresso and change length for the texture
But sometimes I might want to change an SLA as well
I don't seem to find a way to do that to SLA in Xpresso or am I missing something????

Anyone???

unfortunately sla can't be driven this way currently :( you can only use parameters that are animateable in the timeline, and SLA hasn't been integrated fully into the attributes manager yet, so none of it's attributes can be animated in this manner. sorry, no can do.
