Inheritance

Part PartBase Trunk

Stub. Right now, it only implements createChain().

classmethod createChain(points, upVector, downAxis=<undefined>, upAxis=<undefined>, tipMatrix=None, opposite=False, parent=None)

Thin wrapper for paya.lib.skel.Chain.createFromPoints().

Parameters

• points (list [list [float] | Point | Vector]) – a world position for each joint; at least two points are required

• downAxis (str) – the ‘bone’ axis; defaults to paya.config.downAxis

• upAxis (str) – the axis to map to the up vector; defaults to paya.config.upAxis

• tipMatrix/tm – an optional rotation matrix override for the tip (end) joint; if provided, only orientation information will be used; defaults to None

• opposite (bool) – flips the (resolved) down axis; defaults to False

• parent (None, str, Transform) – an optional destination parent for the chain; defaults to None

Returns

The generated chain.
