Oops! I thought you might ask that, and since I came across from C++ ( which is very like C#), I went straight to the Visual Studio help, MSDN article…

Yay! Another noobish question. .net 3 is additive to .net 2. Reflection hasn’t changed, has it? So if you write your own control with .net3 calls, whi…

Thanks for the reply, let’s hope the tie-in advances to .net 3 soon. But what I really like is the simple attitude whereby you just hoik all the files…

Really good idea. Straightforward, simple, useful. Noobish enquiry: have you looked into wpf interfaces/XAML? Is this reachable from maxscript?

System.Drawing.Fontstyle is an enumerated type, so you have to use dotnet.combineenums to ‘or’ its bits. myForm = dotnetobject “form” myLabel …

You can’t do your own operator overloading in MXS, as you can in C++. You have to write functions, or ‘methods’ in a struct defining your own ‘type’ …

Thanks for this extended explanation, Bobo. There’s nowhere else to get this kind of ground-up explanation of the app (unless I’m wrong?). I often fi…
