Usage

member(whichCastmember).model(whichParentNode).\

child(whichChildNodeName)

member(whichCastmember).model(whichParentNode).child[index]

Description

3D model, group, light, and camera property; returns the child node named

whichChildNodeName or at the specified index in the parent node’s list of children. A node is a

model, group, camera, or light.

The transform of a node is parent-relative. If you change the position of the parent, its children

move with it, and their positions relative to the parent are maintained. Changes to the rotation

and scale properties of the parent are similarly reflected in its children.

Use the

addChild method of the parent node or set the parent property of the child node to add

to the parent’s list of children. A child can have only one parent, but a parent can have any

number of children. A child can also have children of its own.

Example

This statement shows that the second child of the model named Car is the model named Tire.

put member("3D").model("Car").child[2]

-- model("Tire")
