Questions:
- The call 'CreateNewLayer' is nowhere in the documentation I have. I also need to be able to destroy a layer... but I'm I suppose to now guess function names and call sequences for a function I don't even know exists? Is there any COMPLETE documentation that includes this call and others along the same lines? I have ALL the documentation available in the Sticky posts, so no need to point me there, that is the documentation that is incomplete and has tons of typos (of course...lol).
- Look at the definition of 'layer' in the above code. It is created, and NEVER USED! Yet, when this code is called, a new 3D layer is created and the points created seem to be part of this layer. How did these points get associated with 'layer'?
- try creating a cube. It seems to be completely un-editable! You can't add points or access existing points. All you can do is re-size, move, and rotate it. The 'Draw', 'Fill', and 'Bones' tools are not available, and the fill color, line color, and line thickness are fixed at creation time. So this shows how to create a 3D object with a script, but the end result is not very manipulative!
Is there a way of creating a 3D layer that one CAN edit? Or is this a feature for AS8PRO?
