PointObject.GetPointH(self)¶

Return the hidden points.

Return type:	c4d.BaseSelect
Returns:	The hidden points.

PointObject.GetPointS(self)¶

Return the selected points.

Return type:	c4d.BaseSelect
Returns:	The selected points.

PointObject.GetPoint(self, id)¶

Get the position of a point.

Parameters:	id (int) – The point index.
Raises:	IndexError – If the point index id is out of range : 0<=id<`GetPointCount()`.
Return type:	c4d.Vector
Returns:	The position of the point.

PointObject.SetPoint(self, id, pos)¶

Set the position of a point.

Note

Call obj.Message (c4d.MSG_UPDATE) after you set all your points to update the object.

Parameters:	id (int) – The point index. pos (c4d.Vector) – The position of the point.
Raises:	IndexError – If the point index id is out of range : 0<=id<`GetPointCount()`.

PointObject.GetAllPoints(self)¶

Return all point positions.

Return type:	list of `Vector`
Returns:	The list of positions.

PointObject.SetAllPoints(self, p)¶

Set all points of the point object.

The length of the passed list object must be equal the count of points.

Note

Call obj.Message (c4d.MSG_UPDATE) after you set all your points to update the object.

Parameters:	p (list of `Vector`) – The list of positions.

PointObject.GetPointCount(self)¶

Return the number of points.

Return type:	int
Returns:	The number of points.

PointObject.CalcVertexMap(self, modifier)¶

Get an array of vertex weights.

Changed in version R19.053: Previous name was CalcVertexmap (still works for backward compatibility).

Parameters:	modifier (c4d.BaseObject) – The modifier object.
Return type:	list of float
Returns:	The list of weights, or None if failed.

PointObject.ResizeObject(self, pcnt)¶

Changes the number of points in the point object.

Parameters:	pcnt (int) – The new number of points.
Return type:	bool
Returns:	Success of changing the number of points.
