Hey

Is there a way to create a motion path with a name instead of the default “path” name. I currently have this line of code:

Its creating problems as i have multiple motion paths so i have to create them in numerical order. If i was to try to create the second motion path first, i’d get an error because the default name assigned to that motion path doesn’t exist because there isn’t another motion path before that.

It probably sounds confusing, but the gist of it is i want to create a motion path with a name tied to it instead of editing the name after the motion path has been created like in the code above.

I tried:

But it doesn’t work.

Thanks.

typically you would store the name in a variable upon creation, so:

so you can then access the curves transform name through $curve[0] and its shape (which has the curve goodies on) through $curve[1].

btw

wont work as your using the -name flag twice, at the beginning and the end (-n path and -name path2)
