Hi folks,

I want to duplicate an object n times, n being set in the parent object's CustomPSet.

I know how to script the creation of these duplicates, but how can I have the number update based on the value the Pset? I.e. when I first create these objects, the PSet parameter was at 5 so I have 5 duplicates, now I change this to, say, 3.

With my script I'd have to manually run the script, deleting all the old objects and create the new number. Any way I can link the parameter so it runs the script automatically when the value is changed?

I hope I am making myself clear, if I knew what exactly I'm looking for I'd have more luck searching in the docs and the web. Any pointer would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers, Dave
