The command box is displayed in the lower-left corner of the Softimage interface. As you work, the Command Box shows the scripting equivalent of the last command you issued.
You can use the Command Box to type commands or repeat a recent command.
You can enter a command by typing it in the Command Box. For example, you can modify the parameters of the last command before running it again or type an entirely different command.
To enter a command, simply click in the Command Box and type it. The command is executed when you press Enter. To cancel, press the Esc key or click outside of the Command Box.
When typing a command, use the syntax of the scripting language set in your preferences, which is VBScript by default. For more information about scripting languages, see Scripting Languages.
The pop-up list next to the Command Box stores the last 25 commands. You can use this list to quickly repeat a recent command.
To repeat a recent command
1. Click on the triangle arrow next to the Command Box.
2. Select a command from the list of recent commands that is displayed. The command is placed in the Command Box but not executed yet.
3. Type any changes to the command you desire, then press Enter to execute it.
If you change your mind and don’t want to execute the command, simply move the mouse pointer away from the Command Box. Its contents will be replaced by the next command you issue through the interface.
