class nuke.AnimationCurve

Bases: object

Methods

addKey

Insert a sequence of keys.

changeInterpolation

Change interpolation (and extrapolation) type for the keys. :param keys: Sequence of keys. :param type: Interpolation type. One of: nuke.HORIZONTAL nuke.BREAK nuke.BEFORE_CONST nuke.BEFORE_LINEAR nuke.AFTER_CONST nuke.AFTER_LINEAR. :return: None.

clear

Delete all keys.

constant

return

True if the animation appears to be a horizontal line, is a simple

derivative

The n’th derivative at time ‘t’.

evaluate

Value at time ‘t’.

expression

Get the expression.:return: String.

fixSlopes

return

None.

fromScript

param s

String.

identity

return

True if the animation appears to be such that y == x everywhere. This

integrate

Calculate the area underneath the curve from t1 to t2.

inverse

The inverse function at value y.

keys

return

List of keys.

knob

Return knob this animation belongs to.:return: Knob.

knobAndFieldName

Knob and field name combined (e.g.

knobIndex

Return the knob index this animation belongs to.:return: Int.

noExpression

return

True if the expression is the default expression (i.e. the keys

removeKey

Remove some keys from the curve.

selected

return

True if selected, False otherwise.

setExpression

Set expression.

setKey

Set a key at time t and value y.

size

return

Number of keys.

toScript

param selected

Optional parameter. If this is given and is True, then only

view

The view this AnimationCurve object is associated with.

addKey(keys) → None.

Insert a sequence of keys. :param keys: Sequence of AnimationKey. :return: None.

changeInterpolation(keys, type) → None.

Change interpolation (and extrapolation) type for the keys. :param keys: Sequence of keys. :param type: Interpolation type. One of:

nuke.HORIZONTAL nuke.BREAK nuke.BEFORE_CONST nuke.BEFORE_LINEAR nuke.AFTER_CONST nuke.AFTER_LINEAR.

Returns

None.

clear() → None.

Delete all keys. :return: None.

constant() → bool
Returns

True if the animation appears to be a horizontal line, is a simple

number, or it is the default and all the points are at the same y value and have 0 slopes. False otherwise.

derivative(t, n) → Float.

The n’th derivative at time ‘t’. If n is less than 1 it returns evaluate(t). :param t: Time. :param n: Optional. Default is 1. :return: The value of the derivative.

evaluate(t) → float

Value at time ‘t’. :param t: Time. :return: The value of the animation at time ‘t’.

expression() → String.

Get the expression.:return: String.

fixSlopes() → None.
Returns

None.

fromScript(s) → None.
Parameters

s – String.

Returns

None.

identity() → bool
Returns

True if the animation appears to be such that y == x everywhere. This

is True only for an expression of ‘x’ or the default expression and all points having y == x and slope == 1. Extrapolation is ignored.

integrate(t1, t2) → Float.

Calculate the area underneath the curve from t1 to t2. :param t1 The start of the integration range. :param t2 The end of the integration range. :return: The result of the integration.

inverse(y) → Float.

The inverse function at value y. This is the value of x such that evaluate(x) returns y. This is designed to invert color lookup tables. It only works if the derivative is zero or positive everywhere. :param y: The value of the function to get the inverse for. :return: Float.

keys() → List of keys.
Returns

List of keys.

knob() → Knob.

Return knob this animation belongs to.:return: Knob.

knobAndFieldName() → string.

Knob and field name combined (e.g. ‘translate.x’). :return: string.

knobIndex() → Int.

Return the knob index this animation belongs to.:return: Int.

noExpression() → bool
Returns

True if the expression is the default expression (i.e. the keys

control the curve), False otherwise.

removeKey(keys) → None.

Remove some keys from the curve. :param keys: The sequence of keys to be removed. :return: None.

selected() → bool
Returns

True if selected, False otherwise.

setExpression(s) → None.

Set expression. :param s: A string containing the expression. :return: None.

setKey(t, y) → Key.

Set a key at time t and value y. If there is no key there one is created. If there is a key there it is moved vertically to be at y. If a new key is inserted the interpolation and extrapolation are copied from a neighboring key, if there were no keys then it is set to nuke.SMOOTH interpolation and nuke.CONSTANT extrapolation. :param t: The time to set the key at. :param y: The value for the key. :return: The new key.

size() → Number of keys.
Returns

Number of keys.

toScript(selected) → str
Parameters

selected – Optional parameter. If this is given and is True, then only

process the selected curves; otherwise convert all. :return: A string containing the curves.

view() → String.

The view this AnimationCurve object is associated with. :return: String.
