Query all states of modelEditor

[JellyFire]

Sorted!!!
Put my thinking cap on and had a bash (Am starting to get MEL a bit more I recon ;))

int $i,$value1[17];
string $showTypes[17] = {"-nurbsCurves","-nurbsSurfaces","-polymeshes","-subdivSurfaces","-planes","-lights","-cameras","-joints","-ikHandles","-deformers","-dynamics","-locators","-dimensions","-pivots","-handles","-textures","-strokes"};

for ($i=0; $i < 17; $i++){

$value1[$i] = `modelEditor -q $showTypes[$i] modelPanel4`;
if ($value1[$i] == 1){
modelEditor -e $showTypes[$i] 0 modelPanel4;
}
}

print ("I am doing something");

for ($i=0; $i < 17; $i++){
if ($value1[$i] == 1){
modelEditor -e $showTypes[$i] 1 modelPanel4;
}
}

Hope that helps anyone trying to do something similar...
*If anyone see's any mistakes can you give me a shout.

I did this sometime ago:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//ntToggleCamOnCurrentPanel

string $currentPanel = `getPanel -wf`;

$wosStatus = `modelEditor -q -cameras $currentPanel`;

int $wos = $wosStatus;

if ($wos ==1)
modelEditor -e -cameras 0 $currentPanel;
else
modelEditor -e -cameras 1 $currentPanel;

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

This way it will get the current panel otherwise it will fail if you´re not specifically on modelPanel14 n your example.

I intended to do something extra but never did. To break/make the link of the image plane with the camera so it won´t render if turned off. The way it is wors only on openGL preview.

Hope this helps
