Hi

I have a FRAME [A] and inside I have an object [B] ,
I know there is a script where you clone object [B] , but the problem when I clone the object I have a clone inside FRAME [A] .

Is there a way to have a clone of object [B] outside FRAME [A] ?

thanks

It would help if you said what you were trying to accomplish.

I think the direct answer to your question is simply 'no'.

One of the key features and purposes of Frame objects is to convey / pass all of its added attributes onto the contained or child objects. Skew a Frame, skew the child.

I myself do not have much experience with Clone objects. But I can offer some additional ideas to explore. There are some script commands that allow you to get an object's characteristics (such as colour, font type, whatever) and modify that. The general construct creates a new object and you manipulate that.

I have no idea what you are TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH, so I'll leave it at that.

ps. You will get more responses from forum participants if/when you complete a profile with system info, Opus info, etc.

what I am trying to say....can you move an object outside a frame with a script?

I know you can do it in the editor with a right mouse action,...

thanks

That's not what Lar was asking.

As he said, the answer to your question is no it's not possible - but if you explain in more detail the purpose of changing the child parent relationship then there may be an alternative.
