I want to have a user select from a browser window, for example a material browser, and then select from the tree, and then I want to be able to store that selection in an array, say, but I seem to have a mental block on how to do that. I know its probably absurdly simple.
in the mxs help there is very detailed tutorial How To … Develop a Scene Browser using TreeView ActiveX Control.
the using of ActiveX controls in max scripting is obsolete. But the theory is still right. You just need to convert the IDEA to .NET implementation.
i’m pretty sure there’s also a section on converting that ActiveX treeview to a .NET treeview
well there are a few threads about this already so I accessed them…all you had to do was point to them,geez thnx guys for ignoring the newbie with his newbie question…
i think that your question was ignored because it was not clear enough. At least for me. What do mean by selecting from the free?
more details about what you want to do help you to get the right answer on your question.
yep… it’s Converting ActiveX TreeView Control to DotNet TreeView Control
thanks guys…I will have a look…but isn’t there a dot net command that just gives yoiu the material browser withiut any further coding?
