[Closed] Maxscript editor tip/tutorial

Can you be a little more specific on the issue ?

1.-first at all, big thanks for the tip_big_tools.
i want to know if possible to make an adittion to the Editor User.Properties so i can change in real time the colors…using the color palette.
2.-I dont know how to change in that script the color selection, for me is hard to see the diference (selec/non select).
the image attached help to explain what i need

Thanks in advance

Im using vim for a long time , as the editor of maxscript . I write a listener script , let it start when max start up . it is a timer , check a file when tick tick , then run the edited script found in a specific folder .

 rollout debugTool "" 
(
checkbutton switchClock "debug" checked:true 
timer checkclock "checkclock" interval:1000 active:true 
on switchClock changed val do 
(
if switchClock.checked then 
(
checkClock.active = true
)else 
(
checkClock.active = false 
)
)
on checkclock tick do 
(
-- read file in C folder . 
if ( doesfileexist "c:\\src.ms" ) then 
(
-- delete old exe file . 
deletefile "c:\\debug.ms" 
-- copy file . 
copyfile "c:\\src.ms" "c:\\debug.ms" 
-- delete old src file . 
deletefile "c:\\src.ms" 
-- run file . 
try ( filein "c:\\debug.ms"  ) catch ( print " error in debug " ) 
)
)
 
 
)createdialog debugTool 40 30 0 0 

in Vim , edit the _vimrc file , add a line :

 :imap <esc>:w<cr>:w! c\\src.ms<cr>

that is : edit the codes in Vim , when press F5 , vim will write the buffer to file name : c:\src.ms . coz the max started , and my script running , when tick , it will get the file , src.ms , then copy it to debug.ms , delete src.ms , run debug.ms . that is my way .

the connection of vim and 3ds max need a listener , so , let max script do it .

we can enjoy powerful Vim , superTab , nerdTree , fast dictionary for autocomplete , map keys , abbreviate self define …

the dict file can be convert from maxscript.api file which fit for sciTE .

repeated .

Project panel in Maxscript Editor?
