Does anybody know how to find out if a deformed object is a polygonobject and not a primitive (in a deformer!)?
Whatever I try I always get the same ids for primitives and polygonobjects in deformers... :
Thanks

You have to retrieve the type from the real object. The cache object always returns the GetType result of Opolygon. I think I can predict a few more pitfalls you might find along your way but we will wait and see.
