The Blender Ipo module

This module provides access to Ipo objects in Blender.

An Ipo object is a datablock of IpoCurves which control properties of an object in time.

Note that IpoCurves assigned to rotation values (which must be specified in radians) appear scaled in the IpoWindow (which is in fact true, due to the fact that conversion to an internal unit of 10.0 angles happens).

Example:

  from Blender import Ipo, Object

  ipo = Ipo.New('Object', 'ObIpo')                   # Create object ipo with name 'ObIpo'
  curve = ipo.addCurve('LocY')                       # add IpoCurve for LocY
  curve.setInterpolation('Bezier')                   # set interpolation type
  curve.setExtrapolation('CyclicLinear')             # set extrapolation type

  curve.addBezier((0.0, 0.0))                        # add automatic handle bezier point
  curve.addBezier((20.0, 5.0), 'Free', (10.0, 4.0))  # specify left handle, right auto handle
  curve.addBezier((30.0, 1.0), 'Vect')               # automatic split handle
  curve.addBezier((100.0, 1.0))                      # auto handle

  curve.update()                                     # recalculate curve handles

  curve.eval(35.0)                                   # evaluate curve at 35.0

  ob = Object.get('Plane')
  ob.setIpo(ipo)                                     # assign ipo to object

Eval ( ipocurve,  time )

New ( blocktype,  name=None )

Recalc ( ipocurve )

_convertBPoint ( b )
