Value > MAXWrapper : Value

The MAXWrapper class is the superclass of all classes in MAXScript that represent 3ds Max objects, such as scene nodes, modifiers, materials, etc.

MAXWrapper values contain references to the associated 3ds Max objects that allow it keep track of the object.

This allows MAXScript to know when a 3ds Max object is transformed, deleted by the user, or its properties are changed.

The properties, operators, and methods that are common to all classes derived directly from the MAXWrapper class are described in MAXWrapper Common Properties, Operators, and Methods.

The following classes are derived directly from the MAXWrapper class.

Other classes are derived from these classes, and inherit the properties and methods defined for the MAXWrapper class.
