Description

Sets the scene's active take

The active take is the source capture file (x2d file). There can only be one active take. When you reconstruct, you are reconstructing data from the active take.

Calling this method is the equivalent of importing an x2d file. It is provided for convenience and to enable you to "clear" the active take by passing an empty string ( "" ) as the active take.
