Short question everyone:
is it possible to check (via Max Script) if any parameter in a Modifier is animated?
For example: I have a Box with a Chamfer modifier on top. The amount parameter of the chamfer modifier is animated through keyframes. The Script should only tell me that the Chamfer modifier is animated. (true or false value)
I don’t want to call a specific controller of the modifier. It should work more or less “independent” regardless of the modifier type…
Thanks everyone!
modif = $.modifiers[#Chamfer]
animatedsel = #()
--get all animated getproperty
for i = 1 to modif.numSubs do
if modif[i].isAnimated do
animatedsel[animatedsel.count+1] = modif[i]
--get value
for i in animatedsel do
print i.value
--get property
for i in animatedsel do
print i.name
--get state direct
modif[#amount].isAnimated
modif["amount"].isAnimated-- hasAnimMod-v1_00.ms
