Hi Dan,

This one works fine on 5.11  : var c_hairs = ActiveSceneRoot.FindChildren("","hair");

But this one doesn't : var c_hairs = ActiveSceneRoot.FindChildren("", siFurPrimType);

Maybe it is because "siFurPrimType" is not the X3D hair Object ?

Cheers
Guillaume

var oHairColl = ActiveSceneRoot.FindChildren(null, ???);

What I really want are the Hair Dynamics operators but the hair objects themselves would do.... Right now I'm checking the type of everything in the scene to filter out the hair objects, then going through each of their construction histories looking for the Simulation operators and returning my collection of operators, but this seems really round the houses.

I've tried 'hair', 'siFurOpType', 'siFurPrimType' etc.... which type do you guys use in conjunction with FindChildren when working with hair?

Thanks,

DAN
