[Closed] Accessing Make Preview dialog options through either Maxscript or Python
Hello all,
I’m trying to write a script that automatically sets all the Make Preview dialog settings in a correct manner to intergrate it in my pipeline tools…
The main thing I want to do is set the make preview dialog output to a custom folder and file location through either maxscript or maxplus.
So far I’ve only found solutions that actually output a preview through script/code. ( createPreview() for example and other solutions ) But nothing that only sets the make preview Output dialog. I do not want to write a whole custom previewing tool for this if possible :banghead:
It puzzles me that the max render dialog settings are easily accessed through scripting but not the preview dialog options… :surprised
Any ideas? Thanks!
there are no methods in mxs to specify Preview output. The easiest and usually used solution is to rename default ‘preview’ file after it was made (saved).
