What’s the best way to go about deleting the faces of an edit poly mod? Does the user have to go into the mod panel for it to work?
fn fnCreateFXPuck = (
fxPuck = Cylinder smooth:on heightsegs:1 capsegs:2 sides:8 height:0.0 radius:12 mapcoords:on pos:[0,0,0] isSelected:on
ep = Edit_Poly()
fxPuck = addModifier fxPuck ep
max modify mode --switch to Modify tab of Command panel
modPanel.setCurrentObject ep --set the Edit_Poly as the current level
subObjectLevel = 4 --switch to Face level
ep.Select #Face #{}
ep.Select #Face #{1..24}
ep.SetOperation #DeleteFace
ep.Commit()
)
fnCreateFXPuck()
[left]polyOp.deleteFaces <Poly poly> <facelist> delIsoVerts:<boolean=true>
[/left]
[left][left]Deletes the specified faces. If <delIsoVerts> is true, any vertices that are no longer used by faces are also deleted.[/left][/left]
[left][left] [/left][/left]
[left][left]eg: [/left][/left]
[left][left]mybox = $ – it is a poly object or add a poly modifier to the stack first . [/left][/left]
[left][left] [/left][/left]
[left][left]polyop.deletefaces mybox #{1…5} [/left][/left]
Your method does not seem to work. Check it out.
fn fnCreateFXPuck = (
puck = Cylinder smooth:on heightsegs:1 capsegs:2 sides:8 height:0.0 radius:12 mapcoords:on pos:[0,0,0] isSelected:on wirecolor:orange
ep = Edit_Poly()
puck = addModifier puck ep
polyop.deletefaces puck #{1..5}
)
fnCreateFXPuck()
sorry , I checked it :
coz the ’ deleteface ’ is affect on the object`s baseobject . that means the baseobject must be a poly object .
u can convert the object to editable_poly . then it will works .
