alias_api.AlWindow

class alias_api.AlWindow

Bases: AlObject

Interface to the Alias modeling windows.

Alias modeling windows are the windows in which geometry information is actually viewed and modified. These are the Top, Front, Right and Perspective windows, as well as the SBD window. This class allows the creation, positioning and sizing windows. You can get the camera associated with a window. Plugins can use the mapping functions to determine where in world space a screen event occurred.

AlUniverse contains methods for getting the first modeling window, the current modeling window, and the sbd window.
