The EditPolyMod Interface is a [Mixin Interface] exposed by the Edit_Poly modifier.
You can call the methods listed below by accessing the Interface as stand-alone, passing the Edit_Poly modifier as first argument before all other arguments.
EditPolyMod.GetSelection $Box01.modifiers[#Edit_Poly] #Vertex --or shorter, EditPolyMod.GetSelection $Box01.Edit_Poly #Vertex
You can also call the methods listed below as methods exposed by the Edit_Poly modifier itself because MAXScript searches both the modifier and all its Interfaces for the method name.
Thus, instead of using something like:
$Box01.modifiers[#Edit_Poly].EditPolyMod.GetSelection #Vertex --or $Box01.Edit_Poly.EditPolyMod.GetSelection #Vertex
The stand-alone interface access is typically orders of magnitude faster than the alternative method.
<enum>GetEPolySelLevel() GetEPolySelLevel enums: {#Object|#Vertex|#Edge|#Border|#Face|#Element|#CurrentLevel}
Returns the EditPoly selection level.

Converts the selection from the fromLevel into the toLevel. If requireAll : is set to true , all source subelements shared by a target subelement must be selected for the target subelement to be selected. For example, a polygon is selected only when all its vertices are selected, a vertex is selected only when all polygons that share it are selected, and so on.

Adds the bitArray passed by reference to the sub-object selection at the specified sub-object level. The modifier must be displayed in the command panel and must be in the requested sub-object mode for the selection to be set correctly.
If the optional invert : keyword is supplied and set to true , the selected state of the specified sub-objects is inverted - if they were selected they are deselected and vice-versa. If false or not supplied, they become selected or remain selected if they were selected already.
If the optional select: keyword is supplied and set to false , the specified sub-objects are deselected if they were already selected, or remain deselected if they were not selected. If true or not supplied, they are selected if they were previously not or remain selected if they were already selected.

<void>RotateSlicePlane <&quat>amount parent:<&matrix3> axis:<&matrix3>localOrigin:<boolean> amount is In parameter parent default value: (matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0]) parent is In parameter axis default value: (matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0]) axis is In parameter localOrigin default value: false
Rotates the slice plane by the specified quaternion value. If parent is specified, its local coordinate system is used. If axis is specified, it is used as a custom coordinate system. If localOrigin is specified, the rotation is about the slice plane's local transformation center.
<void>ScaleSlicePlane <&point3>amount parent:<&matrix3> axis:<&matrix3> localOrigin:<boolean> amount is In parameter parent default value: (matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0]) parent is In parameter axis default value: (matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0]) axis is In parameter localOrigin default value: false
Scales the slice plane by the specified Point3 value. If parent is specified, its local coordinate system is used. If axis is specified, it is used as a custom coordinate system. If localOrigin is specified, the scaling is about the slice plane's local transformation center.

<index>DivideFace <index>faceID <float array>vertexCoefficients node:<node> node default value: undefined
Divides the specified face using the supplied array of vertex coefficients. Available in 3ds Max 8 and higher.
Returns the Preserve UVs state for the specified map channel.
Sets the Preserve UVs state for the specified map channel to the supplied boolean value.
<void>AttachList <&node array>nodesToAttach editPolyNode:<node> nodesToAttach is In parameter editPolyNode default value: undefined
Detaches the selected sub-object selection to a new object with the specified name.
Returns the number of vertices in the Edit_Poly.
Returns the vertex with the specified index.
Returns the number of faces sharing the specified indexed vertex.
Returns the indexed faces sharing the specified indexed vertex.
Returns the number of edges sharing the specified indexed vertex.
Returns the indexed edge sharing the specified indexed vertex.
Returns the indexed vertex shared by the specified edge.
Returns the indexed face shared by the specified edge.
Returns the number of sides (edges/vertices) of the indexed face. A value of three means a triangular face, a value of four means a quad face, and so on.
Returns the vertex used at the specified indexed corner of the given indexed face.
Returns the edge used at the specified indexed side of the given indexed face.
Returns the Material ID of the indexed face.
Returns the Smoothing group of the indexed face. Smoothing groups are stored in long integers where the 32 bits correspond to the states of the 32 smoothing groups.
Returns the number of mapping channels.
Returns true if the supplied mapping channel is active, false otherwise.
