3D MAX TUTORIALS

 

Edit Object List Dialog

Utilities panel > Utilities rollout > Dynamics > Dynamics rollout > Edit Object List button > Edit Object List dialog

The Edit Object List dialog lets you select the objects to include in a dynamics simulation. Highlight objects from the Objects in the Scene list on the left, and then click the > button to place them in the Objects in the Simulation list on the right side of the dialog.

The Exclude and Include option buttons above the right window determine whether the items listed are excluded from or included in the simulation.

Note: All the selection and inclusion dialogs in the Dynamics Utility are displayed and function similarly.

Interface

Objects in the Scene—To add scene objects to the simulation (assuming Include is chosen), select objects from the list on the left, then use the > button to move them to the list on the right.

Search Field—The edit box above the Scene Objects list lets you search for object names by entering names that use wildcards. For example, searching for "sphere*" finds all objects whose names start with "sphere".

Objects in the Simulation—To exclude objects from the simulation (assuming Include is chosen), select objects from the list on the right, then use the < button to move them to the list on the left.

Exclude/Include—Choose whether the simulation will exclude or include the objects named in the list on the right. If you choose Exclude, only objects in the list on the left are included in the simulation.

All/None/Invert—Affect the list on the left. All selects all objects, None deselects all objects, and Invert selects unselected objects and deselects selected objects.

Display Subtree—Turn on to indent the list according to the object hierarchy.

Case Sensitive—Turn on to use case sensitivity when searching for object names.

Select Subtree—Selects all objects in a hierarchy at the level you click and below.

Selection Sets—Displays a list of named selection sets. Choosing a selection set from this list selects those objects in the Scene Objects list.

Clear—Clears all entries from the Exclude/Include list on the right.
