script, I'm=20
modifying weights of a skeletal envelope. I'm also adding/removing =
deformers on-the-fly. Because of this, I cannot use the array =
returned from=20
Envelope.Weights. So I'm using Envelope.GetDeformerWeights() and=20
Envelope.SetDeformerWeights() to read/write weights on the =
envelope. The=20
tool I'm writing needs to zero out weights from deformers native to =
the=20
envelope and put new weight values on the deformers that are dynamically =
added=20
to the envelope. The problem I'm encountering is XSI won't let me =
zero out=20
all the weights on the envelope's native deformers. The last =
deformer in=20
the list assumes 100% of the weight and isn't reduced until I apply =
weight=20
values to the dynamically added deformers. To add to the =
complications,=20
the combined weight of the added deformers won't necessarily reach =
100%. =20
Therefore there is always some garbage weight hanging around on the last =
native=20
deformer of the envelope.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

I can correct this problem by explicitly unassigning weight to selected=20
