Search for all occurrences

Remarks:

Allows a plugin to register an Editable Poly object. (This is done by epoly.dlo in the standard 3ds Max distribution.) This is the object which is collapsed to when the stack is collapsed. The default if no such object is registered is to simply collapse to a PolyObject (which has no UI parameters).

Parameters:

ClassDesc* desc

A pointer to the class descriptor.

Remarks:

Gets the class descriptor for the currently registered Editable Poly object.

(

)

Search for all occurrences

Remarks:

Returns an Editable Poly object from the currently registered EPoly descriptor, cast as a PolyObject.
