What's the best way to go about deleting the faces of an edit poly mod? Does the user have to go into the mod panel for it to work?


fn fnCreateFXPuck = (
fxPuck = Cylinder smooth:on heightsegs:1 capsegs:2 sides:8 height:0.0 radius:12 mapcoords:on pos:[0,0,0] isSelected:on
ep = Edit_Poly()
fxPuck = addModifier fxPuck ep
max modify mode --switch to Modify tab of Command panel
modPanel.setCurrentObject ep --set the Edit_Poly as the current level
subObjectLevel = 4 --switch to Face level
ep.Select #Face #{}
ep.Select #Face #{1..24}
ep.SetOperation #DeleteFace
ep.Commit()
)
fnCreateFXPuck()

polyOp.deleteFaces <Poly poly> <facelist> delIsoVerts:<boolean=true>

Deletes the specified faces. If <delIsoVerts> is true, any vertices that are no longer used by faces are also deleted.

eg:
mybox = $ -- it is a poly object or add a poly modifier to the stack first .

polyop.deletefaces mybox #{1..5}

Your method does not seem to work. Check it out.

puck = Cylinder smooth:on heightsegs:1 capsegs:2 sides:8 height:0.0 radius:12 mapcoords:on pos:[0,0,0] isSelected:on wirecolor:orange
ep = Edit_Poly()
puck = addModifier puck ep


polyop.deletefaces puck #{1..5}
)

fnCreateFXPuck()

sorry , I checked it :
coz the ' deleteface ' is affect on the object`s baseobject . that means the baseobject must be a poly object .

u can convert the object to editable_poly . then it will works .
