Is it necessary for tyflow to resim if you rename an object?


RE: Renaming object resims - tyFlow - 04-16-2019

It shouldn't be, and by default tyFlow won't resim if you rename an input object (if it is, report it as a bug)....however, if you have a node inbetween that is sending rogue messages on name change, that's not something tyFlow can predict.

For example, if you are emitting on a sphere and change the name of the sphere, tyFlow shouldn't resim. However, if you have a modifier on the sphere that sends a an ambiguous change notification when it detects that its input object has had its name changed, tyFlow will just be told "something changed, so resim" if no specific info about what was changed is sent by that modifier.

Since I have no control over how accurate the change notifications sent by other plugins and modifiers are, I can't tell if a rogue message was sent instead of a legit one.

This is something I have to address in the future.
