        "keywordName2" => "keywordValue2",

)

commandArguments

        "keywordName2" => "keywordValue2",

)

keywordArguments

keywordArguments

N/A

Array of keyword arguments (name => value pairs) added to the outline function.

farmSettings

setActiveFrameRange

disabled

When enabled, activeFrameRange parameters are exposed to define the active frame range for rendering.

When disabled, the active frame range is assumed to be the same as
globals.inTime and globals.outTime.

setActiveFrameRange: enabled

start

1

When setActiveFrameRange is enabled, sets the start of the active frame range.

end

1

When setActiveFrameRange is enabled, sets the end of the active frame range.

dependAll

disabled

When enabled, farm dependencies wait until all frames of this node are rendered before rendering themselves.
threadable enabled  
farmFileName    

excludeFromFarmOutputGeneration

disabled

When enabled, this node does not appear in any generated farm file (however, the node is still renderable if called directly).

forceFarmOutputGeneration

disabled

When enabled, this node always appears in a generated farm file (regardless of whether it has any valid outputs).

Note:  If excludeFromFarmOutputGeneration is also set, the node does not appear in the generated farm file (excludeFromFarmOutputGeneration overrides forceFarmOutputGeneration).
