create()

orient(node_a, node_b=None, switch_a=None, switch_b=None)

Orients the start aim of the ribbon to given controller(s)

Args:

node_a: (String) The first controller that the end will be oriented to node_b: (String) If defined, the end will be oriented to both nodes switch_a: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional switch_b: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional

Returns:

(String) Parent Constraint (translates skipped)

pin_end(node_a, node_b=None, switch_a=None, switch_b=None)

Connects the end of the ribbon to given controller(s)

Args:

node_a: (String) The first controller that the end will be pinned to node_b: (String) If defined, the end will be pinned to both nodes switch_a: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional switch_b: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional

Returns:

(String) Parent Constraint

pin_start(node_a, node_b=None, switch_a=None, switch_b=None)

Connects the start of the ribbon to given controller(s)

Args:

node_a: (String) The first controller that the start will be pinned to node_b: (String) If defined, the start will be pinned to both nodes switch_a: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional switch_b: (String) Attribute that will drive the first switch. Optional

Returns:

(String) Parent Constraint
