C++ PivotMode

[istan]

I got another one: How can I set the Viewport Pivot-Mode from C++?

In MXS listener I see: macros.run "Tools" "PivotMode_Toggle" -- when pressing the <INS> button on an selected object.

In an old Interface7() I found something, but it does not work.

Solved. Using "maxops.pivotmode".

PS: found in the good old sparks message archive 🙂

What is wrong with Interface7::GetPivotMode ?

Never had a problem with it...

Here is the code from my library... (looks like pseudo, but it should make sense 😉) 

def_visible_function(getPivotMode)
{
	check_arg_count_with_keys(getPivotMode, 0, count);
	auto mode = mxs_ip(7)->GetPivotMode();
	bool asname = is_true_key(name);

	if (asname)
	{
		switch (mode)
		{
		case PIV_NONE:				return n_none;
		case PIV_PIVOT_ONLY:		return n_pivot;
		case PIV_OBJECT_ONLY:		return n_object;
		case PIV_HIERARCHY_ONLY:	return cust_name(hierarchy);
		}
		return_undefined;
	}

	return int_value(mode);
}

Thx Denis, was just a minor thing.

Is now working with the mxs - when I find time, I'll check it again.
