Description
3D command; returns the model resource found within the referenced cast member that has the
name specified by
whichModelResource, or is found at the index position specified by the
index parameter. If no model resource exists for the specified parameter, the command returns
void. As modelResource.count, the command returns the number of model resources found
within the referenced cast member. This command also allows access to the specified
model resource’s properties.
Model resource name string comparisons are not case-sensitive. The index position of a particular
model resource may change when objects at lower index positions are deleted.
