Available in 2020 c# Autodesk.Max.dll. I can’t check 18-19 versions, but 2017 sdk have no CatAPI at all.

So I can’t use it in all versions, What about python? Do you think we can get CAT interface somehow?

all about CAT Stretchy is a part of CATNodeControlFPInterface which must be available (accessible) for all CAT versions :

So where we can find it inside c# or SDK? I couldn’t find anything about it.
The problem (we should call it bug!) is that the “.AnimationStretchy” property only works in the UI and we can’t set it by using MaxScript. So I decided to find a SDK or Python or C# method, May work.
