_ΒΆ
Get a Node or Plug by its absolute path.
This function is a shortcut for Document:findchild (path)
, as in _(path)
. Considering Lua's syntaxical properties,
_"Material|MyNode"
is considered a correct statement, returning MyNode in Material. Moreover, print(_"Perspective")
will dump the content of the node Perspective. Note that print(_path)
will print the content of _path, since _path
is a valid Lua identifier, whereas print(_(path))
will print the content of the node which path is defined by path.
Arguments:
path the node or plug path
Return:
child the child node or plug
