◆ setHitType()

CoreExport void setHitType ( int t )

◆ getHitType()

CoreExport int getHitType ( void )

◆ doingXORDraw()

CoreExport BOOL doingXORDraw ( void )

◆ AttachDefaultClearMapChannel()

CoreExport BOOL AttachDefaultClearMapChannel ( )

Returns whether when you attach new map faces to a mesh/mnmesh those faces should be cleared or planar mapping applied.

◆ GetPolygonCount()

CoreExport void GetPolygonCount	(	TimeValue	t,
		Object *	pObj,
		int &	numFaces,
		int &	numVerts
	)

This global function (not part of class Object) may be used to count the number of faces and vertices in an object.

It uses Object::PolygonCount() if it is supported, and converts to TriObject and counts faces and vertices otherwise.

Parameters

t	time at which to compute the number of faces and vertices.
pObj	to the object to check.
numFaces	number of faces is returned here.
numVerts	number of vertices is returned here.

◆ GetTriMeshFaceCount()

CoreExport void GetTriMeshFaceCount	(	TimeValue	t,
		Object *	pObj,
		int &	numFaces,
		int &	numVerts
	)

This function is to count trifaces of a mesh It works similar to GetPolygonCount(), where GetPolygonCount will count EditablePoly object's Polys as 1 Poly, instead of several trifaces.

It also will not count splines unless their renderable property is true

◆ SetShapeObjectCCSThreshold()

◆ MakeObjectDerivedObject()

CoreExport Object* MakeObjectDerivedObject ( Object * obj )

Creates a new empty derived object, sets it to point at the given object and returns a pointer to the derived object.

Parameters

obj	object reference of the derived object will point at this object.

Returns: A pointer to the derived object.

◆ GetSpaceWarpCatString()

CoreExport const MCHAR* GetSpaceWarpCatString ( int id )

◆ RegisterObjectConverter()

CoreExport bool RegisterObjectConverter ( ObjectConverter * conv )

Registers an object converter with the system.

Parameters

conv	to the ObjectConverter instance to register.

Returns: Returns true if the converter could be added; false if not.

◆ CanConvertTriObject()

CoreExport int CanConvertTriObject ( Class_ID to )

Indicates if a TriObject can convert to the specified class ID.

Note: this actually checks if an Editable Mesh object can convert to the specified type, since an Editable Mesh is what you get when you call CreateNewTriObject ().

This method may be used in an object's CanConvertToType() and ConvertToType() methods. If your object supports conversion to a TriObject, but doesn't support conversion to the given class ID, you can use this method to find out if TriObjects can be used as an "intermediary". If so, you can construct a temporary TriObject, convert it to the given class ID, and call the temporary TriObject's DeleteThis() method.

Parameters

to	Class ID to convert to.

Returns: Nonzero if the TriObject can be converted to the specified objec type; otherwise zero.

◆ CanConvertPatchObject()

CoreExport int CanConvertPatchObject ( Class_ID to )

Indicates if a PatchObject can convert to the specified class ID.

Parameters

to	Class ID to convert to.

Returns: Nonzero if the PatchObject can be converted to the specified objec type; otherwise zero.

◆ CanConvertSplineShape()

CoreExport int CanConvertSplineShape ( Class_ID to )

Indicates if a SplineObject can convert to the specified class ID.

Parameters

to	Class ID to convert to.

Returns: Nonzero if the SplineObject can be converted to the specified objec type; otherwise zero.

◆ RegisterStaticEditTri()

CoreExport void RegisterStaticEditTri ( Object * triob )

This method will register the object passed as the editable tri object.

Parameters

triob object to register as the editable tri object.

◆ RegisterCollapseType()

CoreExport void RegisterCollapseType	(	Class_ID	cid,
		MSTR	name,
		bool	canSelfConvert = `false`
	)

Registers a class ID of an object that the user can collapse other objects to.

The type will only appear if the current object returns nonzero from CanConvertTo(cid).

Parameters

cid	class ID the object will collapse to.
name	name of the collapse-to object type (such as "Editable Poly").
canSelfConvert	whether an object should be allowed to collapse to itself. (false is generally preferred, so that the collapse-to menu only has relevant entries.)
