I need a script code for align axis to world

[Waseem_Dabbas]

Hi,

I want to make code that aligns the Z axis of a certain element's center to the Z axis of a scene?

in short, I want the code of this button 👇🏻

see MXS Help:

Same as Hierarchy/Pivot/Affect Object Only - Align to World.

AlignPivot <node>-- mapped method

Thank you for answering

After Writing the code, nothing happened, did I miss something?

The Z axis of the selected object should follow the Z axis of the scene.

alignPivot $

hmm... you need to learn MaxScript syntax if you want to use it.

a typical "CG" problem 😉

For those who have the same question, here is the solution:

   for i in selection do 
    (
        WorldAlignPivot i
    )

Funny how it goes... in the MXS Help, the distance from AlignPivot to WorldAlignPivot is just three lines, but in real life, it takes a year and a half to get through them.

It will probably take another year and a half to learn what a “mapped function” is...

But the help is not quite right on this point either. It should rather be <node | nodecollection>, if collections can also be passed.

I didn't say you have to follow Help exactly... it was enough to believe what I said and check how it works. 😎
