base classes — `bpy_struct`, `Modifier`

class `bpy.types.``VertexWeightEditModifier`(Modifier)

  Edit the weights of vertices in a group

  `add_threshold`

    Lower bound for a vertex’s weight to be added to the vgroup

    Type: | float in [0, 1], default 0.0

  `default_weight`

    Default weight a vertex will have if it is not in the vgroup

    Type: | float in [0, 1], default 0.0

  `falloff_type`

    How weights are mapped to their new values

    - `LINEAR` Linear, Null action.
    - `CURVE` Custom Curve.
    - `SHARP` Sharp.
    - `SMOOTH` Smooth.
    - `ROOT` Root.
    - `ICON_SPHERECURVE` Sphere.
    - `RANDOM` Random.
    - `STEP` Median Step, Map all values below 0.5 to 0.0, and all others to 1.0.

    Which object to take texture coordinates from

    Type: | `Object`

  `mask_tex_mapping`

    Which texture coordinates to use for mapping

    - `LOCAL` Local, Use local generated coordinates.
    - `GLOBAL` Global, Use global coordinates.

    - `UV` UV, Use coordinates from an UV layer.

    Type: | enum in [‘LOCAL’, ‘GLOBAL’, ‘OBJECT’, ‘UV’], default ‘LOCAL’

  `mask_tex_use_channel`

    Which texture channel to use for masking
