Actually I think I'm starting to have a beginning of a clue (or not).
In the following line, oEnvelopeDeformers consists of a XSICollection
17 deformers.
oEnvelopeOperator = oCluster.applyenvelope( oEnvelopeDeformers,
c.siBranch, c.siBranch )
However, immediately after this line, I print the deformers of the
operator, and I get a list of 81 deformers!!
I don't understand that!
