ok using the following as a test
maxops.clonenodes $ offset:[0,50,0] expandHierarchy:true clonetype:#copy newnodes:"M_house27_01"
im trying to set the name of the cloned object, in this case “M_House27_01”
Is that what the “newnodes:” option is?( im guessing its not?)
How do i get the name of the new node, so i can rename it?
Cheers

this should work:
maxops.clonenodes $ offset:[0,50,0] expandHierarchy:true clonetype:#copy newnodes:&newObjArray
newObjArray[1].name = “M_house27_01”

If your goal is to copy something and name it, a simpler option is available.
copy $ name:"M_house27_01"
You can replace “copy” with “instance” and “reference” to get the other cloning results.
