Ok, newbie here and I am taking my first steps with maxscript and pythong.
In this particular case, I have a long list of checkboxes that I want to enable and disable using another checkbox. I was trying to simpligy this process but instead of having something like this
_nck.checked = theState
_pck.checked = theState
_zck.checked = theState
_ack.checked = theState
_n2ck.checked = theState
_aock.checked = theState
_motionck.checked = theState
so I thought that I could use an array
dataAllArray = #("_nck", "_pck", "_zck", "_ack", "_n2ck", "_aock", "_motionck")
and then on the main checkbox use a for loop to set all of those checkboxes on or off
on _dataALL changed theState do
(
for i = 1 to dataAllArray.count do
(
dataAllArray[i].enabled = theState
)
)
The problem is that this doesn’t work, and I am not seeing another solution due to my limited knowledge. Anything that I am missing and could be useful?
Thanks in advance for any help
it should be .checked I guess
btw you can set property to all items of collection at once, example:
try (destroydialog X ) catch ()
rollout X "" (
checkbox a "a" checked:true
checkbox b "b"
checkbox c "c"
checkbox d "d"
local checkboxes = #(a,b,c,d)
fn Solo cbox =
(
(for cb in checkboxes where cb != cbox collect cb).checked = false
)
on a changed state do Solo a
on b changed state do Solo b
on c changed state do Solo c
on d changed state do Solo d
)
createDialog X pos:[100,100]Thanks, Serejah for this.
Yes, it is supposed to be .checked
I am going to test it and post the results.
