Detailed Description

Interface to the brush preset manager.

The manager is a singleton object implemented by the system. It maintains the list of contexts and presets. It communicates with the contexts to track which is active, and when a context is updated. It tracks which preset is active in order to store parameters into the preset when contexts are updated. It has functionality to read and write brush preset files. Finally, the brush preset manager provides a maxscript interface to activate and deactivate presets.

Member Function Documentation

◆ DECLARE_DESCRIPTOR()

DECLARE_DESCRIPTOR ( IBrushPresetMgr )

◆ RegisterContext()

virtual void RegisterContext ( IBrushPresetContext * context )

pure virtual

Registers a context with the manager.

Contexts should call this method at system startup, or immediately when loaded into memory to support deferred loading.

Parameters

[in] context The context to register

◆ UnRegisterContext()

virtual void UnRegisterContext ( IBrushPresetContext * context )

pure virtual

Unregisters a context with the manager.

Contexts may call this method if they are unloaded from memory, but it is not required during normal shutdown.

Parameters

[in] context The context to unregister

◆ GetContext()

virtual IBrushPresetContext* GetContext ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Returns a context object from its ID.

This returns the context immediately if it is currently registered, otherwise it loads the context plug-in if it is not in memory but supports deferred loading.

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the context

◆ GetNumContexts()

virtual int GetNumContexts ( )

pure virtual

Returns the number of contexts.

This includes all currently registered contexts, plus contexts in deferred plug-ins which were registered previously but are not yet loaded.

◆ GetContextID()

virtual Class_ID GetContextID ( int contextIndex )

pure virtual

Translates the index number of a context into the corresponding context ID.

Parameters

[in] contextIndex The index of the context

Returns: The context ID, or Class_ID(0,0) if the index is out of range

◆ GetContextIndex()

virtual int GetContextIndex ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Translates the ID of a context into the corresponding context index number.

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the context

Returns: The index of the context, or -1 if no context exists with the given ID

◆ BeginContext()

virtual int BeginContext ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Notifies the manager that a context is activated.

This should be called by a context when its UI is opened and ready for painting

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the context

◆ EndContext()

virtual int EndContext ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Notifies the manager that a context is deactived.

This should be called by a context when its UI is closed

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the context

◆ IsContextActive()

virtual BOOL IsContextActive ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Returns TRUE if the given context is active, FALSE otherwise.

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the context

◆ GetPreset()

virtual IBrushPreset* GetPreset ( int presetID )

pure virtual

Returns a brush preset object from its ID, or NULL if no preset exists with the given ID.

Parameters

[in] presetID The ID of the preset

◆ CreatePreset()

virtual IBrushPreset* CreatePreset ( )

pure virtual

Creates a new preset, and adds a corresponding button to the brush preset toolbar.

◆ DeletePreset()

virtual void DeletePreset ( IBrushPreset * preset )

pure virtual

Deletes a preset, removing the corresponding button from the brush preset toolbar.

◆ GetNumPresets()

virtual int GetNumPresets ( )

pure virtual

Returns the current number of brush presets.

◆ GetPresetID()

virtual int GetPresetID ( int presetIndex )

pure virtual

Translates the index number of a brush preset into the corresponding preset ID.

Parameters

[in] presetIndex The index of the preset

Returns: The preset ID, or zero if the index is out of range

◆ GetPresetIndex()

virtual int GetPresetIndex ( int presetID )

pure virtual

Translates the ID of a brush preset into the corresponding preset index number.

Parameters

[in] presetID The ID of the preset

Returns: The index of the preset, or -1 if no preset exists with the given ID

◆ GetActivePreset()

virtual int GetActivePreset ( )

pure virtual

Returns the ID of the active preset.

This corresponds to the currently checked button on the brush preset toolbar, or zero if no button is checked.

◆ SetActivePreset()

virtual void SetActivePreset ( int presetID )

pure virtual

Sets the active preset.

The button on the brush preset toolbar corresponding to this preset will become checked.

Parameters

[in] presetID The ID of the preset

◆ OnContextUpdated()

virtual void OnContextUpdated ( Class_ID contextID )

pure virtual

Notifies the manager that a parameter has changed within a brush preset context.

Contexts should call this method whenever they are active, and any parameter changes which needs to be stored into the active preset

Parameters

[in] contextID The ID of the updated context

◆ ReadConfig()

virtual int ReadConfig ( const MCHAR * cfg = NULL )

pure virtual

Reads a brush preset file, including the preset values and the layout of the toolbar.

Parameters

[in] cfg The path of the file, or NULL to use the standard startup file

Returns: Non-zero if successful, otherwise zero on error

◆ WriteConfig()

virtual int WriteConfig ( const MCHAR * cfg = NULL )

pure virtual

Writes a brush preset file, including the preset values and the layout of the toolbar.

Parameters

[in] cfg The path of the file, or NULL to use the standard startup file

Returns: Non-zero if successful, otherwise zero on error
