Ahh cheers!

In the real code I have things reacting to the transform data/event, the example code was an as simple scenario as possible to show the problem. Anyw…

Sorry I wasn’t clear then This issue I’m having is not pivot/vertex related. The obj position I’m getting from max in a ‘when transform’ handler is…

Ehh… are you sure you’re in the right topic?

Here is a snippet from my Voluminance script, cloud is a mesh obj. p at the bottom is a random point on a random face (vi) . vi=getface cloud (rando…

JHN: I’ve heard beta testers can’t even tell they’re on beta Now where did you hear that? But seriously, I think that applies to implying the …

All beta testers are still under NDA until it is released so we can’t tell any details yet beyond what has been communicated by Autodesk.

Awesome! I missed the whole binary option and got discouraged thinking of parsing strings to floats etc Thx guys!

You can select the convex/concave faces with the build in PolySelect tools, its the code that is behind the ribbon’s ‘select’ tab. See maxroot\stdsc…

How about first getting all concave edges that are somewhat parallel to the XY plane, then test their faces for orientation.

Maybe a stupid question but why don’t you use dummy geometry? -redraw off -generate geometry -use all of max’s clever build-in transform stuff -extra…

Here is my function for a flat spline on xy plane, I think you can rewrite it easily. positive or negative output tells you its direction. There are …

See the ‘2d’ section here, it might help: “It is based on the observation that a side of a minimum-area enclosing box must be collinear with a side …
