Member Function Documentation

◆ ExecuteAction() [1/5]

virtual CoreExport BOOL ExecuteAction ( int id )

virtual

Called by 3ds Max to execute the operation associated with an action item.

Parameters

id	The ID of the item to execute.

Returns: This returns a BOOL that indicates if the action was actually executed. If the item is disabled, or if the table that owns it is not activated, then it won't execute, and returns FALSE. If it does execute then TRUE is returned.

Default Implementation:: { return FALSE; }

Reimplemented in TrackViewActionCallback.

◆ GetDynamicMenu() [1/3]

virtual CoreExport IMenu * GetDynamicMenu	(	int	id,
		HWND	hwnd,
		IPoint2 &	m
	)

virtual

Called by 3ds Max if an action item declares itself as a dynamic menu.

Parameters

id	The item ID which is passed to the DynamicMenuCallback::MenuItemSelected()
hwnd	If the menu is requested by a right-click quad menu, then hwnd is the window where the click occurred. If the item is used from a menu bar, then hwnd will be NULL.
m	If the menu is requested by a right-click quad menu, then this will be the point in the window where the user clicked.

Default Implementation:: { return NULL; }

◆ ExecuteAction() [2/5]

virtual CoreExport BOOL ExecuteAction ( int id )

virtual

Called by 3ds Max to execute the operation associated with an action item.

Parameters

id	The ID of the item to execute.

Returns: This returns a BOOL that indicates if the action was actually executed. If the item is disabled, or if the table that owns it is not activated, then it won't execute, and returns FALSE. If it does execute then TRUE is returned.

◆ PopulateDynamicMenu() [1/2]

virtual CoreExport void PopulateDynamicMenu	(	MaxSDK::CUI::ICuiDynamicMenu *	dynMenu,
		int	actionId,
		HWND	hWnd,
		const IPoint2 &	cursorPos
	)

virtual

If the ActionItem does produce a dynamic menu (i.e.

IsDyamicAction() returns true), this method is called by the system to populate the new menu currently being created to add items, separators, and submenus. Each item is given an arbitrary id (see ICuiDynamicMenu interface). Default implementation is a no-op.

Parameters

dynMenu	- Pointer to dynamic menu interface. Pointer is owned by the system.
actionId	- Id of ActionItem that produces the dynamic menu
hWnd	- If the menu is requested by a right-click quad menu, then this hWnd is the handle of the window where the click occurred. If the item is used from a menu bar, this hwnd will be nullptr.
cursorPos	- If the menu is requested by a right-click quad menu, then this parameter is the point in the window where the user clicked.

◆ DynamicMenuItemSelected() [1/2]

virtual CoreExport void DynamicMenuItemSelected	(	int	actionId,
		int	itemId
	)

virtual

If the ActionItem does produce a dynamic menu (i.e.

IsDyamicAction() returns true), this method is called by the system when user clicks on a menu item that was added in PopulateDynamicMenu. Default implementation is a no-op.

Parameters

actionId	- Id of ActionItem that produced the dynamic menu
itemId	- id of menu item that was clicked by user. Use this id to execute appropriate action. This id is passed to ICuiDynamicMenu functions when populating the menu (for example: AddItem(itemCmdId, ...)).
