Hey guys just a really simple question



If I wanted to turn off a modifier from my stack how would it do it?

Not delete it,



Like if I wanted to be able to turn Off an On lets say the edit mesh of an object.



Thanks in advance

Hi.

To disable the modifier on the top of the stack of modifiers for the selected object:

$.modifiers[1].enabled = false

Thanks that helped



I have another question, I’ve created 2 buttons on enables the turbosmooth of my object and the other one disables it. It works fine, but now I can’t tell which one I have pressed. How can I make the button so that it stays pressed?
Here my noob script


rollout turbosmooth "TURBO SMOOTH"

(



button turbosmooth "ON" across:2

on turbosmooth pressed do



(

$Orcbody01.modifiers[#TurboSmooth].enabled=true

)



button meshsmootha "OFF"

on meshsmootha pressed do

(

$Orcbody01.modifiers[#TurboSmooth].enabled=false

)

)

Hi,

Use a checkbutton like this:

on cb checked pState do selection.modifiers[#TurboSmooth].enabled = pState

The state is a boolean, ie. true or false. This is all spelled out quite clearly in the max reference. Look under checkbox. True means the box is checked (on), false means it isn't checked (off).

Yeah Martin is right. It's just a variable that holds the current parameter state, hence my use of pState.

Hey guys I've created my first scripted toolbar for a specific character. And I really just want some advice
im pretty new at scripting. Just want some comments on this, thanks
I know the script is very name dependent
And for some reason I couldn’t get the checkboxes to work so that’s why I used so many buttons. It works for what i need it to do,but here my first attemp i really need some feed back.

Hi

to use a checkBox instead of a button, you can use the .isHidden property of an object

example:

-- ...
checkBox eyes "Eyes"
-- ...
on eyes changed state do -- here I use 'state' but you can use whatever name you want
(
eyesobj=#($pupil, $iris, $'L eyeball', $'L eyeball01', $pupil01, $iris01, $'EYE CTRL', $Text01, $Text02)
for o in eyesobj do o.ishidden=state
