[Closed] MS – Configure Modifier Sets Dialog

what do you want to do with it via mxs?

Hi DenisT,

I would to access these two functions from the Modify Panel (more precise help page on autodesk) :

Display the current button set on the Modify panel:
[ul]
[li]Click (Configure Modifier Sets), and then choose Show Buttons to turn on this item. This item is a toggle. Choosing Show Buttons a second time turns off the button display, and so on. [/li]
[/ul]

Change from one button set to another:

[ul]
[li]Click (Configure Modifier Sets), and then choose the modifier set name from the lower part of the menu.[/li][/ul]

i know how Modifier Panel works. my question is – what do you want to do via mxs?
there is no special interface to manage modifiers sets via mxs, but all information about them stored in INI file.

ini = getMAXIniFile()
sets = getINIsetting ini #ModifierSets
for s in sets do format "% => %
" s (getINIsetting ini #ModifierSets s) 

Oh thanks great denisT There is everything I need there.
I just wanted to switch from one modifier set to an other and to hide/show it I got it.

Thank you !

Hi again,

I found the 2 command I needed :

--get the max ini setting file
 	  Modifiers_Set_ini = getMAXIniFile()
 -- set the current Modifier Set displayed
 	  setINIsetting Modifiers_Set_ini #ModifierSets "CurrentModSet" Set_number
 -- set the visibility  of the modifier sets
 	  setINIsetting Modifiers_Set_ini #Modstack "Visible" Visibility_Value

The only unknown is if there is a way to force max to re-evaluate the ini setting file without restarting max ?

Thanks
