Hey,

I am working on a simple custom node which outputs float values. I am not creating an MFnTransform node. I can connect the outputs from my custom node into the inputs of an object’s transform node to drive the translation. This is working, however, I can’t find a way to have the connected object’s translation work in object space.

I am very new to the Python API. Can someone please point me in the right direction for outputting values in object space? Since my node’s output is connected to the transform node of an object, how can I set the connected object to translate in Object Space?

Thanks,

Wes
