Detailed Description

class INodeExposure: public FPMixinInterface

Description:

This class is only available in release 5 or later.

This interface provides the ability for a node to define whether it is visible in any of max's dialog boxes. This interface will be extended and used by more of 3ds Max's core utilities, but currently ONLY TrackView and the Select Object/HideObject dialog box use this interface. By default this interface is not available through the default nodes, it needs to be added.

To get a pointer to this interface from a node the following code can be used.

INodeExposure* iNE = (INodeExposure*)node->GetInterface(NODEEXPOSURE_INTERFACE_TOAPPEND)

This will add a new INodeExposure interface to the node if it is not present. The next time you use this technique it will only return the interface and not create another new interface.

Data Members:

enum {

kSelectObjects, kSchematicView, kMaxscript,

kMerge, kMergeAnimation, kReplace,

kKeyEditor, kCurveEditor, kRangeEditor,

kUpdates

};

This enum provides access to the different supported UI elements. It is used with various methods of the class to get/set the UI flags. kUpdates is used when you want to temporarily remove a ref from updating the scene graph. This is for performance reason for instance if you wanted to cache a bunch nodes for display purposes after you built the cache you could turn off this flag and these not will not participate in scene updates.

IsExposed()

virtual bool IsExposed ( int  ui ) const

pure virtual

Remarks

This will return the exposure state of the UI element being queried

Parameters:

int ui

The UI flag to query. This should be a value from the UI enum - See data members section

SetExposed() [1/2]

virtual void SetExposed ( bool  state )

pure virtual

Remarks

This will set the state of all the UI elements to the state passed into the method

NOTE kUpdates is not set or cleared by this. You have to individually set/unset that flag

Parameters:

bool state

The state to set the nodes UI exposure

SetExposed() [2/2]

virtual void SetExposed ( bool  state, int  ui  )

pure virtual

Remarks

This will set the state of the individual UI element to the state passed into the method

Parameters:

bool state

The state to set the nodes UI exposure

int ui

The UI element to set

bool IsExposedInTrackView ( ) const

inline

Remarks

This will return true if it is visible in TrackView or false if it is not. This will return TRUE is the node is exposed in ANY of the TrackView states, kKeyEditor, kCurveEditor and kRangeEditor. It will return FALSE if ALL are set to false.
