Object Plugin Maxscript Slice

Submitted by The_Bungler on Wed, 2017-07-26 14:04

I am trying to write a object plugin. Is there a way how you could slice a picked object in a Maxscript Create Object plugin. It seems I can't use " .slice' function at all. I wrote already a own slice function but the performance is not that good as the slice function from 3DS Max.
Is there anyway how I could use modifiers in a create object plugin (Simple Object)
Thx anyway

Relax Tool Dialog Amount parameter

Submitted by Marco999 on Tue, 2018-03-13 03:36

Hi there,
is there anyone who can tell me what's wrong with this code?

actionMan.executeAction 2077580866 "40136" -- Unwrap UVW: Relax Dialog
$.modifiers[#unwrap_uvw].setRelaxAmount 1.0

I would like to create a button that opens the relax dialog with the parameter set to "1,0" while I'm working with the unwrap editor ...
The listener returns me OK but nothing happens in the dialog ...
except the second time I run the script after manually closing the relax tool dialog ...
very usefull if someone tells me how to close the dialog via script ...

Thanks to anyone who can help ..
