Hmm that is pretty bad. In fact, that is very bad. I’m now starting to doubt my own memory however (not for the first time,hehe). I thought I had an i…
Yeah it sucks to lose, especially losing to a computer program… So I’ve kept digging a bit too, and have noticed something odd. I implemented the nes…
Renaming the layers that were merged the first time before merging the second ones results in it not crashing by the way. I’m not sure whether this me…
Then I wonder, would the crash still occur if we do the merging in two completely distinct operations? I.e. merge1, save file, close max, start max, l…
Very curious. For me it crashes when doing it through the UI 100% of the time. I had a look at the minidump generated, but that doesn’t give much more…
Hmm interesting. So if you did the part from saveMaxFile onwards manually, it didn’t crash for you? I get this result when doing the merging with max…
That’s crazy…! There are no callbacks other than default ones from max (not the outliner’s either). And the crash occurs both with using your snippet …
It does crash max (2010) for me actually. I build a scene like this: layer1 = (LayerManager.newLayer()).layerAsRefTarg; layer2 = (LayerManager.newLay…
Yeah if that works, it is by far the most practical. Could you have a look at this issue report and see if that works for your implementation? Or al…
Are you sure the AcceptsReturn value is set correctly?
So I’ve been thinking a bit about how to tackle this based on the suggestion from Denis to store the layer hierarchy as names. I think that will work …
Panayot: but…that “background wire” still bother me (: What do you mean by “background wire” ?
Panayot: As i never intend to make such kind of tool, please excuse me in advance for any possible no sense words Not at all! I appreciate the i…
Yeah, it’s a bit embarrassing… The nested layers has been a feature since 2.0, which has was released around April 2010. I somehow never managed to ca…
XRef is indeed giving similar problems, I suspect for the same or similar reason. I had considered storing layer names too. But then the question beck…
