Parameters

hlo	The Hit Level - one of SUBHIT_MNVERTS, SUBHIT_MNEDGES, SUBHIT_MNFACES, or SUBHIT_MNDIAGONALS, along with SUBHIT_OPENONLY if you want to restrict hit-testing to "open" vertices or edges (ie those on borders)

Example: Edit Poly's Hinge from Edge interactive command mode uses this to hit-test on faces even though the user is in Polygon subobject level. The Cut mode uses it to hit-test on all three subobject levels, one at a time.

{ }

virtual void ClearHitLevelOverride ( )

inlinevirtual

Clear any hit level override, and let hit-testing fall back on the normal hit level for subobject selection.

{ }

virtual DWORD GetHitLevelOverride ( )

inlinevirtual

Returns the current hit level override, or 0 if there is none.

Returns

The Hit Level - one of SUBHIT_MNVERTS, SUBHIT_MNEDGES, SUBHIT_MNFACES, or SUBHIT_MNDIAGONALS, along with SUBHIT_OPENONLY if hit-testing is restricted to "open" vertices or edges (ie those on borders)

{ return 0x0; }

virtual DWORD CurrentHitLevel ( int *  selByVert = NULL )

inlinevirtual

Indicates the current hit level.

If there's a HitLevelOverride in place, that's returned; otherwise this method returns the regular hit level, which is typically the hit level for the current selection level. If "Select by vertex" is turned on, SUBHIT_MNVERTS will be returned.

Parameters

selByVert

If you specifically want to know whether "Select by vertex" is being used currently, pass a pointer to an int here. The int pointed to will be set to true if select by vertex is on, or false if not.

Returns

The Hit Level - one of SUBHIT_MNVERTS, SUBHIT_MNEDGES, SUBHIT_MNFACES, or SUBHIT_MNDIAGONALS, along with SUBHIT_OPENONLY if hit-testing is restricted to "open" vertices or edges (ie those on borders)

{ return 0x0; }

virtual void SetHitTestResult ( bool  ignoreNew = false )

inlinevirtual

Normally, all hit-testing on Edit Poly meshes is done on the mesh before the "current operation".

(This makes it possible to change selections underneath a Bevel or Extrude or Vertex Weld.) If you want to hit-test on the result of the current operation, you need to call this method.

Parameters

ignoreNew

Controls whether subobjects that are newly created by the current operation can be hit-tested. For instance, if the current operation is an Extrude, this controls whether or not the sides of the extrusion can generate hits.

Remarks

This is typically used in Edit Poly command modes, such as Chamfer or Extrude, after the user has entered the mode, but while the last operation might still be the "current" one, so that we can hit-test as though the current operation had already been committed. It's also used in command modes like Create Face so that we can hit-test on the freshly created vertices.

{ }

virtual void ClearHitTestResult ( )

inlinevirtual

Clears any HitTestResult settings, and falls back on hit-testing before the current operation.

(See SetHitTestResult for more details.)

{ }

virtual void SetDisplayLevelOverride ( DWORD  dlo )

inlinevirtual

Sets the display level override, to force display of a particular type of subobject regardless of the current subobject level.

Parameters

dlo	The set of display flags to show. These are MNDISP flags, such as MNDISP_VERTTICKS, that are defined in MNMesh.h.

Example: Edit Poly's Create Face command mode uses this to show vertex ticks so that the user can see what they're clicking on.

{ }

virtual void ClearDisplayLevelOverride ( )

inlinevirtual

Clear any display level override, and let hit-testing fall back on the normal display for the current selection level.

{ }

virtual DWORD GetDisplayLevelOverride ( )

inlinevirtual

Returns any current DisplayLevelOverride.

See SetDisplayLevelOverride for more details.

Returns

The set of display flags to show, or 0 for no override currently set. These are MNDISP flags, such as MNDISP_VERTTICKS, that are defined in MNMesh.h.

{ return 0x0; }

virtual void ForceIgnoreBackfacing ( bool  force )

inlinevirtual

This method is used to temporarily force the Edit Poly to ignore backfacing subobjects when hit-testing.

Parameters

force

True to force ignoring backfacing, false to fall back on normal hit-testing.

{ }

virtual bool GetForceIgnoreBackfacing ( )

inlinevirtual

Indicates whether or not the Edit Poly is currently set to force ignoring backfacing subobjects.

virtual void EpModCloseOperationDialog ( )

inlinevirtual

Close the popup dialog which shows the current operation's parameters, if it's currently being displayed.

{ }

virtual void EpModRepeatLast ( )

inlinevirtual

Repeat the last operation.

If there is a "current" operation, it will be committed and repeated, without changing any parameters or removing any animations. If there is not, the last recorded operation, if any, will be applied and committed. (In Max 7.0, unfortunately, the identity of this last operation is not exposed in the SDK. You can examine it in the Edit Poly source, maxsdk/samples/mesh/EditPoly, the EditPolyMod::mLastOperation data member.

virtual INode* EpModGetPrimaryNode ( )

inlinevirtual

Get the current "Primary" node, which is used by default when node-specific commands are given and the node given is NULL.

{ return NULL; }

virtual void EpModSetPrimaryNode ( INode *  node )

inlinevirtual

Set the current "Primary" node, which is used by default when node-specific commands are given and the node given is NULL.

virtual Matrix3 EpModGetNodeTM ( TimeValue  t, INode *  node = NULL  )

inlinevirtual

Retrieve the transform of the Edit Poly's node.

Parameters

t	The time at which to retrieve the node's TM.
node	The specific node to use, in cases where the Edit Poly is instanced across multiple nodes. If left at NULL, the Primary node is used. (See EpModSetPrimaryNode.)

Remarks

If the node is given, we just return node->GetObjectTM (t). This method is more interesting when you just want to know what the TM is of the primary node, without bothering to retrive it.

{ return Matrix3(1); }

Matrix3 EpModGetNodeTM_FPS ( INode *  node = NULL, TimeValue  t = 0  )

inline

{ return EpModGetNodeTM(t,node); }

virtual void EpModCut ( int  startLevel, int  startIndex, Point3  startPoint, Point3  normal, INode *  pNode = NULL  )

inlinevirtual

Set up a Cut operation, starting at a specific subobject and at a specific point.

Parameters

startLevel	The starting subobject level, which should be an MNMesh level such as MNM_SL_VERTEX for vertex or MNM_SL_FACE for face.
startIndex	The index of the starting subobject. For instance, if startLevel==MNM_SL_EDGE, and startIndex==4, the Cut should start on edge 4.
startPoint	The location (in object space) of the start of the cut. The end of the cut is also initialized to this value, and can be further modified by using EpModSetCutEnd.
normal	The normal direction for the Cut. In the Cut command mode, this is generally set to the viewport direction. Cuts should occur where the plane defined by the start point, the end point, and this normal intersects the mesh.
pNode	The specific node to use, in cases where the Edit Poly is instanced across multiple nodes. If left at NULL, the Primary node is used. (See EpModSetPrimaryNode.)

inlinevirtual

If the last Cut we made finished successfully, this method will return the index of the vertex at the end of the cut.

If there was no previous Cut or if it couldn't reach all the way to the desired end point, this method will return -1.

Example: The Cut mode uses this method to generate a series of sequential cuts, where each cut begins exactly on the vertex at the end of the last cut.

{ return -1; }

virtual void EpModClearLastCutEnd ( )

inlinevirtual

Resets the "last cut end" data to -1.

(See EpModGetLastCutEnd for more details.)

{ }

virtual void EpModCutCancel ( INode *  pNode = NULL )

inlinevirtual

Please ignore - this method was never implemented, it does nothing.

At some point in the future, it may be used to cancel out of a cut, but this probably isn't necessary since EpModCancel does that effectively.

This number depends on the map channels that are active, or have been in the past. Default is 2, typically it's in the single digits, but it can range as high as MAX_MESHMAPS. (These channels need not all be active - this method just gives an upper bound on the index of active map channels.)

Parameters

pNode

The specific node to get the mesh from, in cases where the Edit Poly is instanced across multiple nodes. If left at NULL, the Primary node is used. (See EpModSetPrimaryNode.) If no primary node has yet been established, one is picked arbitrarily. If the Edit Poly is only used by one node, you may safely leave this at NULL.

Remarks

This is based on the mesh after all committed operations, but before the current operation, if any.

{ return 0; }
