Description

Hello
Anton Berg made a script (http://www.scriptspot.com/forums/3ds-max/scripts-wanted/replace-geometry…)
to copy/paste mod and/or material from one object to another.
My problem :
- I have 10 objects with modifiers (or no) and material applied (or not).Named A01, B01, C01,..
- I have 10 other objects with no modifiers and no material applied, named A02, B02, C02,...
- I want to select some objects with "01" suffix and click a button
and tadaaa
- corresponding objects with suffix "02" have same modifiers and material applied
I mean A01 -> A02, B01 -> B02,...

My solution :
- you
- santa claus
- ?
Thanks for help ! :-))

-- to select all objects with suffix "01":

select ( for obj in objects where \
	obj.name.count == (findString obj.name "1") and \
	obj.name.count-1 == (findString obj.name "0") collect obj
)

- Yes, Br0t, exactly, the "\" tell that current line is continued in the next line.
- Thanks Titane :)
Happy new year to both!

Hello Anubis,
I suggest that the "\" in your code is only used to tell MaxScript that this line of code is continued in the next line? So just to have it more clearly arranged? I have no possibility to look it up myself in the help files right now,so i thought I just ask :)
