check if node has transform

Submitted by gtafan on Wed, 2024-11-27 08:16

I would like to check if some node n has transformation, which means

n.transform!=matrix3 1

Just using != doesn´t work, as far I have read it´s only avaible since max 2018 and I need my script to work with older versions of max.

Yup. With newer versions, you can compare matrix values
But for older versions you can try compare them as strings

n.transform as string != matrix3 1 as string

Hi

maybe something like:

if n.rotation == (quat 0 0 0 1) and n.scale == [1,1,1]  then print "n has not been transformed"
else print "n has been transformed"
