Camera DOF focus object retargeting (2026-03-13 20:28Z)

User

Add camera DOF focus_object retargeting to the run_retarg_relatives function in T:\Dynamic-Link-Manager\ops\migrator.py.

The function currently ends with this code (around line 475-480):

    # Armature modifiers: any mesh with armature modifier using orig -> switch to rep
    for ob in bpy.data.objects:
        if ob.type != "MESH":
            continue
        for mod in ob.modifiers:
            if mod.type == "ARMATURE" and mod.object == orig:
                if ob not in rep_descendants:
                    mod.object = rep

Add the following code immediately after that section:

    # Camera DOF: retarget focus_object from orig to rep
    for ob in bpy.data.objects:
        if ob.type != 'CAMERA':
            continue
        camera = ob.data
        if not camera.dof:
            continue
        if camera.dof.focus_object == orig:
            camera.dof.focus_object = rep

Use Python to read the file, find the exact text, and add the new code.
