[Closed] ProOptimizer.VertexCount does not work in loop

Mar 28, 2017 4:58 am

Hi,

The following scripts assume there is a default sphere in the scene, add a ProOptimizer and set VertexCount and Calculate.

I managed to make it work in the none-loop version with an extra Calculate.

However, it still does not work in the loop.

VertexCount.ms:

max modify mode

obj = $Sphere001 -- Assume there is a sphere in the scene.

select obj

optMod = ProOptimizer()

addModifier obj optMod before:(obj.modifiers.count)
modPanel.setCurrentObject obj.modifiers[obj.modifiers.count] ui:true

optMod.Calculate = true -- Needs this.
optMod.VertexCount = 200
optMod.Calculate = true

VertexCountInLoop.ms:

max modify mode

for obj in $objects do
(
    select obj

    optMod = ProOptimizer()

    addModifier obj optMod before:(obj.modifiers.count)
    modPanel.setCurrentObject obj.modifiers[obj.modifiers.count] ui:true

    optMod.Calculate = true
    optMod.VertexCount = 200
    optMod.Calculate = true
)

Thanks!

Try updating the screen just after you add the modifier. Sometimes it helps updating some internal data in some modifiers. There are different ways, you can use CompleteRedraw(), RedrawViews(), Select $, etc.

(
	for obj in objects do
	(
		select obj
		
		optMod = ProOptimizer()
		addModifier obj optMod
		
		optMod.Calculate = true
		redrawviews()

		optMod.VertexCount = 200
	)
)
