Hi everybody!
I created a scripted plugin modifier. This modifier is available for editable poly, and for splines too. But need different rollout to each object type. I tried to check the base object type with “if-else” and then add the rollouts, but defining rollout only available inside the main plugin clause. How can I make different rollouts for different type base objects. Or is there any filter for modifiers?
Thanks
You could make a main rollout in the body of the scripted plugin with just a subRollout element in it, stretched to fit the UI, then load the subrollouts with a clause. Not as nice as you’d want it, but a possibilty.

Yes, it is not so nice, but thanks. But I found another solution: I made a main modifier that is visible on the modifiers list, and 2 other modifiers that are invisible. The main modifier checks the base object’s type, and add one of the invisible modifiers that fit the base object type, and delete the main modifier.
Creative solution, I like it!

As a script developer I really don’t like this solution. When I create and assign any modifier I expect to have its instance… Why do you not want to simply make two different modifiers (one for poly and one for spline)? It’s an absolutely usual practice: Edit Mesh and Edit Poly, Turn to Mesh and Turn to Poly, Mesh Select and Poly Select, etc.
