View Full Version : Filtering animated objects.....
Fabiomussarela 07-25-2011, 03:17 PM oh man, Iīm rusted......
I canīt figure an easy way to filter animated objects
I just want to select a bunch of objects and then filter the animated ones.....
Doesnīt matter which controller has the animation.... if the object has a key whenever it is, I need to filter it.
Thanks in advance :)

a node is animated if any sub anim of this node has a key. go recursively trough all subs and check key existence.
fn isNodeAnimated node =
(
local animated = off
if iskindof node SubAnim and iscontroller (c = node.controller) do animated = (c.keys.count > 0)
if not animated do for k=1 to node.numsubs while not animated do animated = isNodeAnimated node[k]
animated
)
for node in selection where isNodeAnimated node collect node

Hi Denis, thanks a lot man :)
I thought something like that, using the has key logic, but I was wondering if there was an easyer way to do it cause I still donīt understand recursive functions...
Anyway thanks a lot :)
Fabio, here is a brief description of recursion that might help as it is a simple example using hierarchies of objects.

In a nut shell, a recursive function is a function that calls it self.
