srcFlag = None # Keyword argument
dstFlag = None # Keyword argument
offset = None # Keyword argument

)  
src

Remarks

This command will link the destination object to the source object. When two objects are linked, the position/rotation of the source object will automatically be applied to the destination object.

The returned link object allows you to specify how the objects are linked.
