hey guys,
I guess this is a noob question…but it would really help me in the modelling tasks.
I was trying to make a shortcut to show/hide the Cage while modelling and using the Isoline display. I’ve succedeed to assign the S key to the “ShowCage = True” command, and the ALT + S shortcut to the “ShowCage = False”, but now I’d like to use only one key to show/hide the cage…
can someone help me out with this?..How can I assign the same key (S, for example) to show/hide the cage?
thanks

How about this;
showCage = (not showCage)
thx for the reply
sorry but I’ve just started to move my first steps with MAX Script…so it’s all greek to me :shrug:
can you explain your post?
this is the command I caught to show the cage:
$.showCage = on
and this one is to hide the cage:
$.showCage = off
it looks simple…I just want to know how to associate the same shortcut the both the commands…cycling through them (on/off…on/ff) as I need.
thanks,
AXE
Sorry should have explained a bit more
The command ‘not’ takes a true/false on/off value and returns the opposite.
So to toggle your showCage state the command
$.showCage = (not $.showCage)
will look at the existing state (on or off) and set it to the opposite.
ok, it’s perfectly clear!..and it works perfectly
thank you very much, it helped me alot!
