SetValue

Introduced

1.0

Description

Sets Parameter values and returns the old value (that is, the parameter value before it was changed). This command, like its counterpart GetValue, is a very powerful command because it can change the value of practically any parameter in the scene.

Each time the user changes a Property Page the resulting SetValue call is logged into the script history. By turning the script history contents into a simple script it is easy to automate repetitive tasks.

SetValue provides powerful wildcard support so it is possible to set many parameters with a single call. However, because calling SetValue is logged in the Script History, it is sometimes faster to use the object model to change values; see Parameter.Value.

For more information, see the documentation for the GetValue command.
