the pflow shortcut key "6" doesnt work for me in both 3dmax 09 and 10 :( ... well so i went to the customize user interface to change the key combination (ctrl+alt+shift+6!!) but irrespective of the key combination i assign to the pflow view toggle! it wont show up ! :( any ideas!

thanks!

Do you have the keyboard override toggle on? pFlow editor seems to pop open with it toggled on.

...omg, so that's why pflow hotkey wasn't working, this one bugged me for quite some time !

Thank for the tip :applause:

In case you don't want the override button always turned on, I posted a small entry on my blog (http://limjeff.wordpress.com/2009/10/13/maxscript-open-particle-view/) for a workaround.

here's the short macroscript code:
macroScript Open_Pview
category:"Particle Flow"
ButtonText:"Open Particle View"
tooltip:"Open Particle View"
(
actionMan.executeAction 135018554 "32771"
)
I got the code from the macro recorder by the way.
I hope this helps. :D
