[scripting] OM inside SCOP doesnt work but command does?!

[Philipp Oeser <philipp.oeser(at)liga01.de>]

Hi there,
As you cannot link a SCOPs "mute" parameter or put an _expression_ on it, I made another SCOP that itself should control the "mute" parameter of the first SCOP. And I was learning my lessons with SCOPs I tried to use the Object Model rather than using a command [somewhere in the docs it says: "You must never try and call a command from inside an operator, unless that command does not affect scene data at all..."]

So I went with ( I hope this counts as OM):
Out.Value.Parameters("mute").Value = InMuting.Value.Parameters("MuteIt").Value
This correctly toggles the the checkbox for the SCOPs "mute", however it doesnt mute it at all - the yellow "m" on the SCOP is also missing

On the other hand (if you use the command - which you are not supposed to do!):
SetValue Out.Value & ".mute", InMuting.Value.Parameters("MuteIt").Value
This does everything want: checkbock, yellow "m" and correct muting of the SCOP...


Might be someting stupid from my side, but this doesnt make sense, does it? And if it does, please let me know...
Thanx in advance

Philipp
