script only plays once

Submitted by Mrjacks2o on Tue, 2021-08-17 00:50

Hi i am trying to make this script repeat until all the grouped objects are gone
but it only plays once. so out of 5 groups only 1 gets deleted.

For example if I have 5 groups in the scene I would like this to repeat the script 5 times.

rollout image_button_test "Image Button"
(
------------------------------------------
button theButton "Delete All" width:90 height:20
------------------------------------------

on theButton pressed do
(
for OBJ in helpers do
(
select OBJ
(
print "Start"
for i in selection do i.name = i.name + ("R")
$.renderable = on
delete$

Optimizing code

Submitted by Igryl9l on Fri, 2021-04-09 08:30

Hello
I am trying to optimize my code. Need to select a object class in a specific layer.
I am working with code that consists of two stages:
1: Selecting all objects in the layer.
2: Selecting splines from selected objects.

(
local allNodes = #(), theNodes = #()
for n in selection do (n.layer.nodes &theNodes ; join allNodes theNodes)
select allNodes
select(for obj in selection where classof obj.baseObject==line collect obj)
)

I am looking for a way to exclude the first part while keeping the result.
Any ideas on how to do this? Any help appreciated.

Is it possible to select all poly(s) in editable Mesh/Poly that belongs to certains IDs?

Submitted by nnq2603 on Tue, 2021-06-08 01:09

So the title maybe too short to actually make sense. So what I mean is:

- Problem: there's a high polygon object (attached from different small ones with different materials). I want to enter poly sub-mode (hotkey 4) select some poly(s) and having a script that select the rest of poly(s) that share the same ID(s) with selected ones I just picked. Multiple at once.

Example:
