[Closed] c++ SDK: Bitmap name in Displace Modifier

Check out dispmod.cpp in the samples.

It depends if you mean the ‘bitmap’ field or the ‘map’ field.
The ‘map’ is stored as reference #2. You can easily get it using GetReference(2).

The bitmap filename is more tricky, it’s stored in a field and persisted using chunks like I guess they used to do in 1995. However, it’s registered in asset tracking so you should be able to get to it using Animatable::EnumAuxFiles.

it’s a hack but something like this should do it

class HackMod : public MappingMod 
 {	
 	public:
 		IParamBlock *pblock;		
 		Bitmap *thebm;
 		BitmapInfo bi;
 		Texmap *tmap;
 
 		static IParamMap *pmapParam;
 		static MoveModBoxCMode *moveMode;
 		static RotateModBoxCMode *rotMode;
 		static UScaleModBoxCMode *uscaleMode;
 		static NUScaleModBoxCMode *nuscaleMode;
 		static SquashModBoxCMode *squashMode;		
 		static FaceAlignMode *faceAlignMode;
 		static RegionFitMode *regionFitMode;
 		static PickAcquire pickAcquire;
 		static DispMod *editMod;
 };
 
 static void GetBMName(BitmapInfo& bi, TSTR &fname)
  { 
 	if (bi.GetAsset().GetId()==kInvalidId)
 		fname = bi.Device();
 	else 
 		fname =  bi.GetAsset().GetFileName();
 }
 
 // get the modifier 
 
 if(mod && mod->ClassID() == Class_ID(DISPLACEOSM_CLASS_ID,0))
 {
 	HackMod* hmod =  (HackMod*)mod;
 	if(hmod)
 	{
 		GetBMName(hmod->bi, bitmapfname);
 		.....
 		

Thanks man – you nailed it.
