ShaderNodeMacroRef¶

class ShaderNodeMacroRef

A ShaderNodeMacroRef is a ShaderNodeMacro which is loaded from a file, as a reference

Inherited from class ReferenceBase

boolean	LoadHostReferences	WR	If true, load the sub host references (references with no prefixes).
boolean	Loaded	R	Tells if the reference is loaded or not. Must not be modified direclty.
string	ReferenceActualFileName	R	The actual path of the referenced file, in case the reference path had to be resolved
string	ReferenceFileName	R	The path of the referenced file
string	ReferencePathOverride	R	The path override, so it possible to load another file instead of the original file

#bool result	reload	( string filename )	Reload the reference from disk. Using the filename argument, the method will switch the reference for another one. The edits (modifications done on the reference) are re-applied after the reload.
#bool result	unload	( )	For internal use only.

boolean

Selected

R

True if the node is selected. Don't use this plug directly to select a node, use the Document's modifier select method.
