4 The Blender.Types submodule
5 ===========================
6
7 This module is a dictionary of Blender Python types, for type checking.
8
9 Example::
10 import Blender
11 from Blender import Types, Object, NMesh, Camera, Lamp
12 #
13 objs = Object.Get() # a list of all objects in the current scene
14 for o in objs:
15 print
16 print o, type(o)
17 data = o.getData()
18 print type(data)
19 if type(data) == Types.NMeshType:
20 if len(data.verts):
21 print "its vertices are obviously of type:", type(data.verts[0])
22 print "and its faces:", Types.NMFaceType
23 elif type(data) == Types.CameraType:
24 print "It's a Camera."
25 elif type(data) == Types.LampType:
26 print "Let there be light!"

28 @var ObjectType: Blender Object. The base object, linked to its specific data
29 at its .data member variable.
30 @var GroupType: Blender Group. A Group that references a list of objects that are a part of this group.
31 @var NMeshType: Blender NMesh. The mesh structure.
32 @var NMFaceType: Blender NMFace. A mesh face, with one (a point), two (an edge),
33 three (a triangular face) or four (a quad face) vertices.
34 @var NMVertType: Blender NMVert. A mesh vertex.
35 @var NMColType: Blender NMCol. A mesh rgba color.
36 @var MeshType: Blender Mesh. The mesh structure.
37 @var MFaceType: Blender MFace. A mesh face, with
38 three (a triangular face) or four (a quad face) vertices.
39 @var MEdgeType: Blender MEdge. A mesh edge, with two vertices
40 @var MVertType: Blender MVert. A mesh vertex which wraps a Blender mesh vertex
41 (typically an object returned from the mesh.verts sequence).
42 @var PVertType: Blender MVert. A mesh vertex which does not wrap a Blender
43 mesh vertex (returned from L{Blender.Mesh.MVert()<Mesh.MVert.__init__>}).
44 @var MColType: Blender MCol. A mesh rgba color.
45 @var ArmatureType: Blender Armature. The "skeleton", for animating and deforming
46 objects.
