hello all i’m looking for a script that would output a list of all the object under the xml format.
In other word i have a template XML and i wish to fill the hole with the name of the scene object like
<body listname="Scene_object" >
<object name="object01"/>
<object name="object02"/>
</body>
so if someone already made a script like this or have an idea of where to start i would be very thankful to know it .
im sorry if this look like a way of asking for someone else to do it but i dont have much time at work and i need it as soon as possible. Plus i’m not the more advanced user of maxscript thus i’m asking for help.
thank all
edit; while searching Max innard i found the xmlIO by ravi karra(discreet) .helpful but way to complicated for what i’m looking for.
still searching. Btw i already look at scriptspot…
Here’s a script that will out put the formatted information to a file named “SceneObjects.xml” on your c:\ drive. Edit the first line as necessary to change the filename or put it elsewhere.
ssXML = createFile "c:\\SceneObjects.xml"
if ssXML != undefined then (
format "<body listname =\"SceneObject\" >
" to:ssXML
for obj in objects do (
format " <object name=\"%\"/>
" obj.name to:ssXML
)
format "</body>" to:ssXML
close ssXML
)
wow fast and clean ! thank a lot !
just a question .
what the
\r mean? i think
mean its an output? but what mean the other? or at least under wich section can i found info in the help?
They’re escape characters used inside of strings (text within double quotes)
- newline
\r – return- tab
\ –
” – “
- tab
The last one is a bit confusing. But, if you don’t escape a quote you want in the string then MaxScript will interpret it as the end of the string instead.
“And then Jeff said, “this is incorrect.”” <– this won’t work like you expect
“And then Jeff said, “this is correct.”” <— this will work properly.
