Oh
right... why didn't I think of that!? Yeah, I don't use scops much anymore
myself but in this case it's much quicker to do it that way.
Thanks!

I recall you can use dictionary,getobject and traverse up.

Heu, this might sound weird but how can I
get, from within the scripted operator, the name of the
object on which the scripted operator is applied? Lets say for example
the output of the scripted op is " null.kine.local", well, I want to extract
the string "null". If I do a LogMessage(out.value);
it will log me "null.kine.local". So I though I would try getting it
using out.value.parent.parent but it gives me an error message.
I must be missing something obvious but I can't seem to find it. Anyone has
a suggestion? Thanks.
