Hi!
I’m trying to loop through a selection of elements like
for i in selection do
does it with an selection of objects.
I selected some elements of my mesh inside a editable poly and now I would like to edit them via script. But I can’t find a way to loop through the elements. Is there something similar?

Hi,
You can seperate the elements using polyOp.getElementsUsingFace fn and then loop through them.

Hi McM,
how did you go? This function will return an array of arrays holding the faces of an objects elements.
fn getelements obj=
(
try
(
f=obj.numfaces
eles=#()
done=#()
for i=1 to f do
(
if (finditem done i)==0 then
(
case (classof obj) of
(
editable_mesh:(faces=(meshop.getElementsUsingFace obj #(i)) as array)
editable_poly:(faces=(polyop.getElementsUsingFace obj #(i)) as array)
)
append eles faces
join done faces
)
)
)
catch(eles="non poly or mesh object!")
return eles
)
getelements selection[1]
Hope it’s useful!
