Renderable_Spline : Modifier

Renderable_Spline - superclass: modifier; super-superclass:MAXWrapper - 11:0 - classID: #(-2122363625, -1949890742) 

This modifier was introduced in Autodesk VIZ 2005 as RendSpline : Modifier and is available in 3ds Max 7 and higher. It can be used to procedurally turn an incoming spline shape from the modifier stack into a renderable mesh. It is also used internally when linking DWG files.

Constructor

Renderable_Spline ... RendSpline ... 

Properties

<Renderable_Spline>.Renderable BooleanClass default: true -- boolean 

Toggle the "Enable In Renderer" checkbox on and off. When set to true, a mesh will be generated based on the underlying spline. When false, no mesh will be generated

<Renderable_Spline>.displayRenderSettings BooleanClass default: true -- boolean 

When on, displays the mesh generated by the render settings.

<Renderable_Spline>.useViewportSettings BooleanClass default: false -- boolean 

When set to true, displays the mesh defined by the Viewport settings if .displayRenderSettings is set to true.

<Renderable_Spline>.mapcoords BooleanClass default: false -- boolean 

When set to true, mapping coordinates will be generated procedurally.The U coordinate wraps once around the thickness of the spline; the V coordinate is mapped once along the length of the spline.

When set to false, no mapping coordinates will be generated.
