change fumefx object parameter shell to solid

Dear All

How to change the object parameter type shell to solid in fumefx for multiple objects at a time. I am adding thousands of objects to fumefx particle system. I have to do manually of each and every object parameter from shell to solid. Is there any way to do automatic process for this?

Do favor for me, it saves lot of time for us.

Regards
Appu

the properties you should access is belong to fumx src object

$.type=0 --volume
$.type=1 --shell
$.type=2 --solid

$ should be fumefx src object. not fumefx object.

maybe... $.SourceGeom += 1 --

maybe...
$.SourceGeom += 1 -- ?...
but I dont see which prop could hold the array of objects.
At the end I see nested props .Standard, so check its props as well using show(), ie:
show $.Standard

my recent MAXScripts RSS (archive here)

Hi Anubis

Thanks for solution and sorry for late reply, I tried with these two options but it didn't get the array of objects assigned to the FumeFX container. If anybody is using the FumeFX and facing this problem please give solution.
