Example code for the id DEFORMOBJECT_MODE in Obasedeform

Note that this is not the actual code from the Obasedeform file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

    {         DEFORMOBJECT_MODE_LIMIT; 
        DEFORMOBJECT_MODE_BOX; 
        DEFORMOBJECT_MODE_UNLIMITED; 
    }
}

    DEFORMOBJECT_MODE_BOX = 2,
    DEFORMOBJECT_MODE_UNLIMITED = 3,
};
#endif	// OBASEDEFORM_H__
