No, it doesn't. Once the custom property is instanced into the scene, it's local to the scene. You may see errors associated with the PPGLayout on scene load or whenever the property is inspected, but it will function just fine. Custom operators on the other hand....
Anyway, I don't see a downside to having self installing custom properties vs. customparamsets. They're good for keeping a pipeline clean and organized. I do see plenty of downsides using customparamsets.

Another thought would be to create a custom property to host all the parameters then another one to use as the one that is used by animators. That one would have the proxy params pointing to the host custom param set so that even when you re-order the params they won't be destroyed and all expressions and connections remain. -------------------------------------------- Eric Thivierge http://www.ethivierge.com On Sat, Dec 1, 2012 at 6:46 AM, Matt Lind <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I should add: You can use the custom property wizard to do this too.

The better way to handle this is to use self installing custom properties instead of customparamsets so you can use a text editor to edit away as you please.
