Hi,

I am trying to get the listener to return the number of parameters in my 'PEN attribute holder2' param block.

If the object with the PEN modifier is selected and the last modifier in the stack is the 'PEN attribute holder2' and the parameter block is called 'amyface' then I would think this should work:

print $.modifiers[$.modifiers.count].amyface.count

...but it doesnt

can anybody help..?

Thanks

Spencer

This should do it:

print $.modifiers[$.modifiers.count].amyface.numSubs
Or, in case the attributes are added through the max interface (and thus have the default param block name "Custom Attributes"):

print $.modifiers[$.modifiers.count].custom_attributes.numSubs

Cheers,
Martijn
