Hello everyone,
How can I collect the indexes of the trees in selection via maxscript ?
I tried input ”showinterfaces $” in MAXscript listener and I got these below.

My question is how can I collect the indexes of the trees in selection when the Forest is in “subobjectLevel = 1” ?
It seems there are no command about the indexes of selection. Can you show me some sample commands in MAXscript ?

I am looking forward to your answer.

Hi,

I'm afraid, it's not currently possible to access by maxscript values of the sub-object level selection.

Best regards,

Oh my god. This is very very important step in my new Maxscript tool. If it is not possible to access by maxscript. My maxscript will be failed.
Can you show me any workarounds ?
