Hi everybody!
I want to create a new scripted plugin class that works similar as an editable poly, but i need some extra rollouts.
The problem is I can create only meshes with the "buildmesh" handler. So I tried to use the "extends:editable_poly" parameter, but editable_poly class has no creation method. How can I create an editable poly with maxscript, and add extra rollouts to it?
Please help somebody

Thanks,
Krisztián

Check out the help on scripted modifiers.
Here we extended Editable_Poly to add a Select By Area rollout:

I checked it, but that is a modifier. I want to create a simple editable poly object with extra rollouts, not an edit poly modifier.
Anyway, thank you for your answer.
