[PYTHON] A note about checking modifiers with Max Plus

What is this?

This is a memo I wrote while trying to get a modifier with 3ds Max's Python API, ** Max Plus **.

trial and error

python

python.execute "print dir()"
['MaxPlus', '_ToListener', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', '__package__', '_old_stderr', '_old_stdout', '_redirected_stdout', 'sys']
#success

↑ Max Plus is loaded when Max is opened

You can get the selected object with MaxPlus.SelectionManager.Nodes. So, let's start by grasping the geometry.

python

python.execute "print MaxPlus.SelectionManager.Nodes"
<generator object <genexpr> at 0x00000000FBB2ABD0>
#success

↑ Will it be returned by the generator?

You can get the modifiers applied to the obtained node with **. Modifiers **. You can also get the name of a modifier with **. GetClassName () **. I wore it sideways (?) And tried to double the list comprehension ↓

python

python.execute "print [ mod.GetClassName() for node in MaxPlus.SelectionManager.Nodes for mod in node.Modifiers]"
[u'\u30bf\u30fc\u30dc\u30b9\u30e0\u30fc\u30ba', u'\u30b9\u30ad\u30f3']
#success

desuyone〜〜

python

python.execute "modList = [ mod.GetClassName() for node in MaxPlus.SelectionManager.Nodes for mod in node.Modifiers]"
#success

python.execute "for i in modList:print i"
Turbo smooth
skin
#success

The modifier names "Turbo Smooth" and "Skin" have been taken.

Summary

This selection object, "Turbo Smooth", "Skin" and ** "Morfer" are also assigned **!

That's all for today.
