Hide all layers toggle

[I_Megaman_i]

Hey

I cant find this particular function: http://prntscr.com/nytrci of scene explorer to assign it to a hotkey. Does anyone know a script with a similar action maybe? or point me please to where can I find it inside 3ds max 2017.

Thanks!

Here's a macro to do that (toggles the layers visibility based on the visibility of the current layer):

macroScript toggleAllLayers
	category:"Shortcuts"
	tooltip:"Toggle All Layers"
	buttonText:"Toggle All Layers"
(
	fn setLayersState state =
		for i = 0 to LayerManager.count - 1 do (LayerManager.getLayer i).on = state

	on execute do setLayersState (not LayerManager.current.on)
)

You can copy-paste it into the Script Editor and press Ctrl+E, should appear in the Shortcuts category in Customize UI dialog.

Do you know if theres a "Hide Unselected Layers Toggle" function in 3ds also? That one would be even better.

Well of course it does, because you dont have nested layers in your scene. If you start building a hierarchy both scripts stop working as intended. Thanks for trying to help though.
