◆ GetClassName()

void GetClassName ( MSTR s,
bool  localized 
) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Retrieves the name of the plugin class.

This name is used in 3ds Max's UI and in MAXScript. For Material plug-ins this method is used to put up the material "type" name in the Material Editor.

Parameters
sReference to a string filled in with the name of the plugin class.
localizedIf true, then the class name returned should be localized in the language 3ds Max is currently using. Otherwise it should be the class name in English. If a plugin does not provide localized string resources, it can disregard this parameter and always return the class name in English.

Reimplemented from SimpleManipulator.

◆ ClassID()

Class_ID ClassID ( )
inlineoverridevirtual

Retrieves a constant that uniquely identifies the plugin class.

This method must return the unique ID for the plugin class. If two ClassIDs conflict, the system will only load the first conflicting one it finds. A program (gencid.exe) is provided to generate unique class id values.

Returns
A class id that uniquely identifies a plugin class
See also
Class ClassID, class ID definitions in plugapi.h.

◆ NumSubs()

int NumSubs ( )
inlineoverridevirtual
Remarks
The system uses a virtual array mechanism to access the sub-anims of a plug-in. This method returns the total number of sub-anims maintained by the plug-in. If a plug-in is using a parameter block to manage its parameters it should just return 1 for all the parameters directed by the parameter block.
Returns
The number of sub-anims used by the plug-in.
Default Implementation:
{ return 0; }

Reimplemented from SimpleManipulator.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

ManipExport int NumSubs()
Definition: manipulator.h:1361
int Count() const
Retrieves the number of items in the Tab.
Definition: tab.h:219

◆ SubAnim()

Animatable * SubAnim ( int  i)
overridevirtual
Remarks
This method returns a pointer to the 'i-th' sub-anim. If a plug-in is using a parameter block to manage all its parameters it should just return a pointer to the parameter block itself from this method. This method may return NULL so developers need to check the return value before calling other sub anim methods (such as SubAnimName()).
Parameters
iThis is the index of the sub-anim to return.
Default Implementation:
{ return NULL };

Reimplemented from SimpleManipulator.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

◆ SubAnimName()

MSTR SubAnimName ( int  i,
bool  localized = true 
)
overridevirtual
Remarks
This method returns the name of the 'i-th' sub-anim to appear in track view. The system has no idea what name to assign to the sub-anim (it only knows it by the virtual array index), so this method is called to retrieve the name to display. Developer need to make sure the 'i-th' SubAnim() is non-NULL or this method will fail.
Parameters
iThe index of the parameter name to return
localizedIf true, then the sub-anim name returned should be localized in the language 3ds Max is currently using. Otherwise it should be the sub-anim name in English. If a plugin does not provide localized string resources, it can disregard this parameter and always return the sub-anim name in English.
Returns
The name of the 'i-th' parameter.

Reimplemented from SimpleManipulator.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

◆ NumParamBlocks()

int NumParamBlocks ( )
inlineoverridevirtual
Remarks
This method is available in release 3.0 and later only.

This method returns the number of ParamBlock2s in this instance.
Default Implementation:
{ return 0; }

Reimplemented from Animatable.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

1603{ return pblocks.Count(); }

◆ GetParamBlock()

IParamBlock2 * GetParamBlock ( int  i)
inlineoverridevirtual

An object or modifier should implement this method if it wishes to make its parameter block available for other plug-ins to access it.

The system itself doesn't actually call this method. This method is optional.

Returns
A pointer to the item's parameter block. See Class IParamArray.

Reimplemented from BaseObject.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

1604{ return pblocks[i]; }

◆ GetParamBlockByID()

IParamBlock2 * GetParamBlockByID ( BlockID  id)
inlineoverridevirtual
Remarks
This method returns a pointer to the ParamBlock2 as specified by the ID passed (or NULL if not available).
Parameters
idThe BlockID of the ParamBlock2 instance.
Default Implementation:
{ return NULL; }

Reimplemented from Animatable.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

This method provides a mechanism for extending the class in the future. In 3ds Max 4.0 there are new interfaces that are accessed by passing an id to this method and it will respond by returning the corresponding interface pointer.

This method has been used however for a different purpose. It currently is used to determine if an object is of a particular class. With controllers for example, there is one base class Control, however there are many super classes (CTRL_FLOAT_CLASS_ID, CTRL_SCALE_CLASS_ID, etc.). If you wanted to find out if a given Animatable was a controller you would need to compare its SuperClassID to all the known types and only if it wasn't one of the known types could you be sure it wasn't a controller. Having to do this is inconvenient for a developer.

Instead the Control class implements this method. It looks at the id, and if it matches a predefined constant I_CONTROL, it returns its this pointer. In this way, given any Animatable, it is easy to find out if it is a controller by simply asking for the control interface. There is a macro that does this:

#define GetControlInterface(anim)
Definition: control.h:1055
void * GetInterface(ULONG id) override
Definition: mxsPlugin.h:1606
#define I_CONTROL
An Animatable supporting this interface is a Control.
Definition: AnimatableInterfaceIDs.h:33
A plug-in developer may use this macro as follows:

Control *c = GetControlInterface(anim);

This will either be NULL or a pointer to a valid controller.

Note: Plug-in defined interfaces should be greater than the following value:

#define I_USERINTERFACE 0x0000ffff

If a plug-in implements this method for its own purposes, it would, in general, switch on the id and if it is not aware of the id it would call this method on the base class. Otherwise it could respond to the id as it needed. See the sample code below for the how the Control class implements this method.
Parameters
idThe id of the interface.
Default Implementation:
{ return NULL; }
Sample Code:
The following is the Control class implementation of this method. It looks at the id passed, and if it matches I_CONTROL it returns its this pointer. Otherwise it calls the base class method.

void* Control::GetInterface(ULONG id)
{
if (id==I_CONTROL) {
return this;
}
else {
}
}

◆ NotifyRefChanged()

RefResult NotifyRefChanged ( const Interval changeInt,
RefTargetHandle  hTarget,
PartID partID,
RefMessage  message,
BOOL  propagate 
)
inlineoverridevirtual

Receives and responds to messages.

A plugin which makes references must implement a method to receive and respond to messages broadcast by its dependents. This is done by implementing NotifyRefChanged(). The plugin developer usually implements this method as a switch statement where each case is one of the messages the plugin needs to respond to. The Method StdNotifyRefChanged calls this, which can change the partID to new value. If it doesn't depend on the particular message& partID, it should return REF_DONTCARE.

  • For developer that need to update a dialog box with data about an object you reference note the following related to this method: This method may be called many times. For instance, say you have a dialog box that displays data about an object you reference. This method will get called many time during the drag operations on that object. If you updated the display every time you'd wind up with a lot of 'flicker' in the dialog box. Rather than updating the dialog box each time, you should just invalidate the window in response to the NotifyRefChanged() call. Then, as the user drags the mouse your window will still receive paint messages. If the scene is complex the user may have to pause (but not let up on the mouse) to allow the paint message to go through since they have a low priority. This is the way many windows in 3ds Max work.
Parameters
changeInt- This is the interval of time over which the message is active. Currently, all plug-ins will receive FOREVER for this interval, with the exception of REFMSG_FLAGDEPENDENTS notifications. In that case, changeInt.Start() is the timepoint to perform the dependency test.
hTarget- This is the handle of the reference target the message was sent by. The reference maker uses this handle to know specifically which reference target sent the message.
partID- This contains information specific to the message passed in. Some messages don't use the partID at all. See the section List of Reference Messages for more information about the meaning of the partID for some common messages.
message- The message parameters passed into this method is the specific message which needs to be handled.
propagate- If called through ReferenceMaker::NotifyDependents(), the value of 'propagate' passed to it. Used if calling NotifyDependents() from within NotifyRefChanged().
Returns
The return value from this method is of type RefResult. This is usually REF_SUCCEED indicating the message was processed. Sometimes, the return value may be REF_STOP. This return value is used to stop the message from being propagated to the dependents of the item.

◆ NumRefs()

int NumRefs ( )
overridevirtual

Returns the total number of references this ReferenceMaker can hold.

The plugin implements this method to indicate the total number of of references it can make. This includes all references whether they are NULL (inactive) or non-NULL (active) at the time when this method is called. A plugin can hold a variable number of references, thus the return value of this method is not to be cached and reused by client code.

Returns
The total number of references this plugin can hold. The default implementation is return 0.

◆ GetReference()

RefTargetHandle GetReference ( int  i)
overridevirtual

Returns the 'i-th' reference.

The plugin implements this method to return its 'i-th' reference. The plug-in simply keeps track of its references using an integer index for each one. This method is normally called by the system.

Parameters
i- The index of the reference to retrieve. Valid values are from 0 to NumRefs()-1.
Returns
The reference handle of the 'i-th' reference. Note that different calls to this method with the same 'i' value can result in different reference handles being retrieved, as the plugin changes the scene objects it references as its 'i-th' reference.

Reimplemented from SimpleManipulator.

Reimplemented in MSSimpleManipulatorXtnd.

◆ SetReference()

void SetReference ( int  i,
RefTargetHandle  rtarg 
)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Stores a ReferenceTarget as its 'i-th' reference`.

The plugin implements this method to store the reference handle passed to it as its 'i-th' reference. In its implementation of this method, the plugin should simply assign the reference handle passed in as a parameter to the member variable that holds the 'i-th' reference. Other reference handling methods such as ReferenceMaker::DeleteReference(), or ReferenceMaker::ReplaceReference() should not be called from within this method. The plugin itself or other plugins should not call this method directly. The system will call this method when a new reference is created or an existing one is replaced by calling ReferenceMaker::ReplaceReference().

Parameters
i- The index of the reference to store. Valid values are from 0 to NumRefs()-1.
rtarg- The reference handle to store.

ScripterExport void RefDeleted(RefMakerHandle rm)

◆ RefAdded()

void RefAdded ( RefMakerHandle  rm)
inlineoverridevirtual

Called after a reference is made to a target.

This is called after a reference is made to this. If the target (this) needs to know that a reference to made to it, the target (this) can override this function.

Parameters
rm- The ReferenceMaker creating the reference.
Note
This method is not called when performing an undo of removing a reference to a reference target, or redoing of setting a reference.

◆ RefAddedUndoRedo()

void RefAddedUndoRedo ( RefMakerHandle  rm)
inlineoverridevirtual

Called after a reference is made to a target because of undo or redo.

Called when reference is added because of an undo or a redo. Otherwise it is similar to RefAdded.

Parameters
rm- The ReferenceMaker creating the reference.

Reimplemented from ReferenceTarget.

1623{ MSPlugin::RefAdded(rm); };

◆ RefDeletedUndoRedo()

void RefDeletedUndoRedo ( RefMakerHandle  oldOwner)
inlineoverridevirtual

Called when reference is removed because of an undo or a redo. Otherwise it is similar to RefDeleted.

Parameters
oldOwner- The ReferenceMaker removing its reference.

Reimplemented from ReferenceTarget.

1624{ MSPlugin::RefDeleted(rm); };

◆ Clone()

RefTargetHandle Clone ( RemapDir remap)
overridevirtual

This method is used by 3ds Max to clone an object.

See also
CloneRefHierarchy(), class RemapDir This method is called by 3ds Max to have the plugin clone itself. The plug-in's implementation of this method should copy both the data structure and all the data residing in the data structure of this reference target. The plugin should clone all its references as well. Also, the plug-in's implementation of this method must call BaseClone(). In order for classes derived from this class to clone cleanly, the Clone method should just create the new instance, and then call an implementation of BaseClone that clones the references and copies any other necessary data. For example:
class MyDerivedPlugin
: public MyBasePlugin
{
const int MY_REFERENCE = 1;
ReferenceTarget* Clone(RemapDir& remap)
{
ReferenceTarget* result = new MyDerivedPlugin();
BaseClone(this, result, remap);
return result;
}
void BaseClone(ReferenceTarget* from, ReferenceTarget* to, RemapDir& remap)
{
if (!to || !from || from == to)
return;
MyBasePlugin::BaseClone(from, to, remap);
to->ReplaceReference(MY_REFERENCE, remap->CloneRef(from->GetReference(MY_REFERENCE)));
}
};
virtual CoreExport RefTargetHandle GetReference(int i)
Returns the 'i-th' reference.
CoreExport RefResult ReplaceReference(int which, RefTargetHandle newtarg, BOOL delOld=TRUE)
Used when cloning reference makers.
A scene entity that is being owned and listened to by other scene entities.
Definition: ref.h:1849
For remapping references during a Clone.
Definition: ref.h:830
virtual RefTargetHandle CloneRef(RefTargetHandle oldTarg)
Creates a clone of a reference target only if it hasn't been cloned already.

This method should not be directly called by plug-ins. Instead, either RemapDir::CloneRef() or CloneRefHierachy() should be used to perform cloning. These methods ensure that the mapping from the original object to the clone is added to the RemapDir used for cloning, which may be used during backpatch operations

Note
See the remarks in method BaseClone() below.
Parameters
remap- A RemapDir instance used for remapping references during a Clone.
Returns
A pointer to the cloned item.

◆ GetObjectName()

const MCHAR * GetObjectName ( bool  localized = true) const
inlineoverridevirtual
Returns
the name that will appear in the modifier stack.
Parameters
localizedIf true, then the object name returned should be localized in the language 3ds Max is currently using. Otherwise it should be the object name in English. If a plugin does not provide localized string resources, it can disregard this parameter and always return the object name in English.

Reimplemented from BaseObject.

1631{ return (localized) ? pc->ClassName() : pc->NonLocalizedClassName(); }

◆ BeginEditParams()

void BeginEditParams ( IObjParam ip,
ULONG  flags,
Animatable prev 
)
overridevirtual
Remarks
This method is called by the system when the user may edit the item's (object, modifier, controller, etc.) parameters.
Parameters
ipInterface pointer. The developer can use it to call methods such as AddRollupPage(). Note that this pointer is only valid between BeginEditParams() and EndEditParams(). It should not be used outside this interval.
flagsDescribe which branch of the command panel or dialog the item is being edited in. The following are possible values:

BEGIN_EDIT_CREATE
Indicates an item is being edited in the create branch.

BEGIN_EDIT_MOTION
Indicates a controller is being edited in the motion branch.

BEGIN_EDIT_HIERARCHY
Indicates a controller is being edited in the Pivot subtask of the hierarchy branch.

BEGIN_EDIT_IK
Indicates a controller is being edited in the IK subtask of the hierarchy branch.

BEGIN_EDIT_LINKINFO
Indicates a controller is being edited in the Link Info subtask of the hierarchy branch.

prevPointer to an Animatable object. This parameter may be used in the motion and hierarchy branches of the command panel. This pointer allows a plug-in to look at the ClassID of the previous item that was being edited, and if it is the same as this item, to not replace the entire UI in the command panel, but simply update the values displayed in the UI fields. This prevents the UI from 'flickering' when the current item begins its edit. For example, if you are in the motion branch and are looking at an item's PRS controller values, and then select another item that is displayed with a PRS controller, the UI will not change - only the values displayed in the fields will change. If however you selected a target camera that has a lookat controller (not a PRS controller) the UI will change because a different set of parameters need to be displayed. Note that for items that are edited in the modifier branch this field can be ignored.

◆ EndEditParams()

void EndEditParams ( IObjParam ip,
ULONG  flags,
Animatable next 
)
overridevirtual
Remarks
This method is called when the user is finished editing an objects parameters. The system passes a flag into the EndEditParams() method to indicate if the rollup page should be removed. If this flag is TRUE, the plug-in must un-register the rollup page, and delete it from the panel.
Parameters
ipAn interface pointer. The developer may use the interface pointer to call methods such as DeleteRollupPage().

flagsThe following flag may be set:

END_EDIT_REMOVEUI
If TRUE, the item's user interface should be removed.

nextAnimatable pointer. Can be used in the motion and hierarchy branches of the command panel. It allows a plug-in to look at the ClassID of the next item that was being edited, and if it is the same as this item, to not replace the entire UI in the command panel. Note that for items that are edited in the modifier branch this field can be ignored.
