Module Blender
The main Blender module.
The Blender Python API Reference
Submodules:
Introduction:
This Reference documents the Blender Python API, a growing
collection of Python modules (libs) that give access to part of the
program's internal data and functions.
Through scripting, Blender can be extended in realtime.
Possibilities range from simple functionality to importers /
exporters and even more complex "applications". Blender
scripts are written in Python, an
impressive high level, multi-paradigm, open-source language.
Version: 0.3
