Settings for interacting with Blender data

auto_keying_mode

Mode of automatic keyframe insertion for Objects and Bones (default setting used for new Scenes)

Type:enum in [‘ADD_REPLACE_KEYS’, ‘REPLACE_KEYS’], default ‘ADD_REPLACE_KEYS’

fcurve_unselected_alpha

Amount that unselected F-Curves stand out from the background (Graph Editor)

Type:float in [0.001, 1], default 0.0

grease_pencil_default_color

Color of new Grease Pencil layers

Type:float array of 4 items in [0, inf], default (0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

grease_pencil_eraser_radius

Radius of eraser ‘brush’

Type:int in [0, 100], default 0

grease_pencil_euclidean_distance

Distance moved by mouse when drawing stroke to include

Type:int in [0, 100], default 0

grease_pencil_manhattan_distance

Pixels moved by mouse per axis when drawing stroke

Type:int in [0, 100], default 0

keyframe_new_handle_type

Handle type for handles of new keyframes

• FREE Free.
• VECTOR Vector.
• ALIGNED Aligned.
• AUTO Automatic.
• AUTO_CLAMPED Auto Clamped, Auto handles clamped to not overshoot.

Type:enum in [‘FREE’, ‘VECTOR’, ‘ALIGNED’, ‘AUTO’, ‘AUTO_CLAMPED’], default ‘FREE’

keyframe_new_interpolation_type

Interpolation mode used for first keyframe on newly added F-Curves (subsequent keyframes take interpolation from preceding keyframe)

• CONSTANT Constant, No interpolation, value of A gets held until B is encountered.
• LINEAR Linear, Straight-line interpolation between A and B (i.e. no ease in/out).
• BEZIER Bezier, Smooth interpolation between A and B, with some control over curve shape.
• SINE Sinusoidal, Sinusoidal easing (weakest, almost linear but with a slight curvature).
• QUAD Quadratic, Quadratic easing.
• CUBIC Cubic, Cubic easing.
• QUART Quartic, Quartic easing.
• QUINT Quintic, Quintic easing.
• EXPO Exponential, Exponential easing (dramatic).
• CIRC Circular, Circular easing (strongest and most dynamic).
• BACK Back, Cubic easing with overshoot and settle.
• BOUNCE Bounce, Exponentially decaying parabolic bounce, like when objects collide.
• ELASTIC Elastic, Exponentially decaying sine wave, like an elastic band.

Type:enum in [‘CONSTANT’, ‘LINEAR’, ‘BEZIER’, ‘SINE’, ‘QUAD’, ‘CUBIC’, ‘QUART’, ‘QUINT’, ‘EXPO’, ‘CIRC’, ‘BACK’, ‘BOUNCE’, ‘ELASTIC’], default ‘CONSTANT’

material_link

Toggle whether the material is linked to object data or the object block

• OBDATA ObData, Toggle whether the material is linked to object data or the object block.
• OBJECT Object, Toggle whether the material is linked to object data or the object block.

Type:enum in [‘OBDATA’, ‘OBJECT’], default ‘OBDATA’

object_align

When adding objects from a 3D View menu, either align them with that view or with the world

• WORLD World, Align newly added objects to the world coordinate system.
• VIEW View, Align newly added objects facing the active 3D View direction.

Type:enum in [‘WORLD’, ‘VIEW’], default ‘WORLD’

sculpt_paint_overlay_color

Color of texture overlay

Type:float array of 3 items in [0, inf], default (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

undo_memory_limit

Maximum memory usage in megabytes (0 means unlimited)

Type:int in [0, 32767], default 0

undo_steps

Number of undo steps available (smaller values conserve memory)

Type:int in [0, 256], default 0

use_auto_keying
