[Closed] Get all viewports using Max SDK

Jul 01, 2009 12:37 pm

Hi all,

I am trying to get all the viewports using 3ds max sdk.
I am able to get the active viewport using
i->GetActiveViewport(); //from interface

Please provide some pointers to get the other viewports using max sdk.

P.S.: Came across the function i->GetViewport(hwnd)
But don’t know how to get the viewports window handle.

hi augustine,

you need methods of Interface7

int getActiveViewportIndex();
BOOL setActiveViewport(int index);
int getNumViewports();
ViewExp *getViewport(int i);

ViewExp* pView = NULL;
 int nViewports = GetCOREInterface7()->getNumViewports();
 
 for(int i=0; i<nViewports; i++)
 {
 	pView = GetCOREInterface7()->getViewport(i);
 	if(pView != NULL)
 	{
 		int viewType = pView->GetViewType();
 		switch(viewType)
 		{
 			case VIEW_LEFT:		...; break;
 			case VIEW_RIGHT:	...; break;
 			case VIEW_TOP:		...; break;
 			case VIEW_BOTTOM:	...; break;
 				....
 
 			default:
 				break;
 		}
 	}
 }

ahh, india…
