Hi,
thanx for reply.
But I have solved it probably, but just partially.
You are right with your example, just change picked to set :).
Now i have texturemap(not materialbutton) which i picked(set) in new rollout also in (hidden-replaceui:true)diffuse map slot.And when im changing this texturemap its changing also in hidden dif map slot(to see this just unhide ui) and vicaversa.
But now I have another problem.
I need to load bitmaps from old(standard+user def rollouts) material to new user def material. :)When I add i new part of code to old user defined material, the textmap button dont want to take textmaps from diffmap slot.
Probably a have to convert old material to new ones, isnt it?
May I have any other choices?
Mr.Orange
Why have you changed ‘picked’ to ‘set’? There is no set event for materialbutton, at least in my reference.
I see that this change updates the gui, but it still doesn’t render? I am confused.
Can please you post a complete example?
I am interested in this topic, but it is ‘annoying (?)’ to guess your code …

hi, we have soved everything fine.But because of posibityty of some problems with inheriting some information wi will convert old user def mat to new user def material.
It dont functioning properly backward to standart textureMap
Here is principle of code.

Mr.Or.
I ran into the same issue and wasn’t sure why until I found the following in the Maxscript reference:
[left]In a scripted Material plug-in, Material and Map buttons that are associated with a parameter in a parameter block do not call the button’s picked event handler. Instead, you should link the button to a parameter in a parameter block, and use the set handler for the parameter.

If you’re writing a scripted material plugin that’s using materialbuttons or mapbuttons and you have those wired to parameters then the picked events for those buttons will not be called.
