MK_api.ae_template

Builds an Attribute Editor template programmatically: rollups, groups, and rows of attribute widgets. Used to lay out the AE for a node container.

Row widget codes (in the add_row_ names): bt = button, ck = checkbox, eb = edit box, mp = map plug, co = color, cb = combo box. Each add_row_ takes one attribute per cell, left to right; a cell value is an attribute scripting name, a redir key, or an inline redir like "a->b".
