Deleting the envelope operator causes the envelope weights property to be 
deleted. ☹

Subject: Re: SDK: how to create an envelope weights property

We've always just left the env op muted or just delete it (don't freeze it). 
But if there's a better way I'd be happy to learn of it.

I need to make a custom operator in C++ which needs to do interpolations

interpolates weighting points to deformers.  I only need the envelope weights 
property (as seen in the envelopes weights point cluster), not the envelope 
weights operator as my custom operator would take its place in the relationship.

Looking through the SDK documentation I cannot find the preset to create just 
the envelope weights property.  The workaround of creating an envelope and 
freezing it doesn’t work either as the envelope weights property disappears 
along with the envelope operator.  Although I can create an envelope and 
duplicate the envelope weights property, then freeze the envelope, that’s a bit 
too hacky for my needs.

If I do somehow create that envelope weights property, is there any special way 
I need to interface with it inside of my custom operator?

Thanks,
