hello, i need to check this two things in a model, I search in the forum but cant find a solution
- i need to find a way to check if an object have hiden geometry before to export it
- check if the object need to use the modifier xform, this becuase the exporter that i use export the object wihout the parameters of the scale transform or rotate transform, so the exported object result in something rotated and scaled different of the viewport.
thanks
So what have you come up with already? Any pieces of code you can share etc.
-Johan
nope, i don’t find any command to start with
actually i have made these to clean up the name before export
fn clean_name =
(
for s in selection do
(
oldname = filterString s.name " \",!#$%&/()"
temp = oldname[1]
for i = 2 to oldname.count do
(
temp = temp + oldname[i]
)
s.name = temp
)
)
and this to check for isolated vertexs:
fn GetNumIsoVerts =
(
if isKindOf $ Editable_Poly then
(
check_isoverts = (((#{1…(polyop.getnumverts $)}) – (polyop.getvertsusingface $ #all)).numberset)
if check_isoverts > 0 then
(
if querybox (“your model have ” + check_isoverts as string + ” isolated vertexs, remove them?”) == true do
(
messagebox (“removed ” + check_isoverts as string + ” isolated vertexs”)
$.EditablePoly.deleteIsoVerts ()
)
)
)
)
but i can’t find something to start with the code for check xform and hide geometry
if the object in question is an editable poly you can use:
polyop.getHiddenVerts <poly poly>
and
polyop.getHiddenFaces <poly poly>
both return bitarrays that list the indices of the corresponding hidden verts/faces. If you don’t care which verts/faces are hidden and simply want to un-hide all you can use
polyOp.unHideAllFaces <poly poly>
and
polyOp.unHideAllVerts <poly poly>
To check for the xform modifier you could use a simple function that returned a boolean like:
fn checkXForm obj =
(
bool = false
for m in obj.modifiers where classof m == XForm do
(
bool = true
exit
)
bool
)
thanks, the code to check for hide geometry work very well,
if (polyop.getHiddenFaces $).numberset > 0 or (polyop.getHiddenVerts $).numberset > 0 then
(
if querybox ("this mesh have hiden geometry, do you want to unhide all geometry and export it?") == true then
(
polyOp.unHideAllFaces $
polyOp.unHideAllVerts $
redrawViews()
)
else(continue)
)
but i have problem with the xform code,
i think that the script you gave me are to check if the object have the modifier added.
but what i need is to check if the object need to apply an xform modifier or not.
still looking
i found this script, but i need to check how this work to have an idea of hot to check if the object need the xform apply
