RE: run commands from custom PPG regardless of model

["Kim Aldis" <XSI(at)kim-aldis.co.uk>]

Inspectobj( Model2.PPG2 ). There are more arguments to InsectObj for things like modality.

 

Depending on how you want to find Model 2, you could also look for it  in Model1.children

Ok, one more....how would I inspect a ppg that lies under a model within another model which is being inspected by a ppg under the parent model.  Make sense?  So in other words:

>Model1
    >PPG1
    >Model2
       >PPG2

I want inspect a ppg that lies under Model2 by a button in Model1's PPG.

Hi Kris,

For a self installing pluggin I use something like this :
  
var oCustomProperty = PPG.Inspected.Item(0);
var oModel = oCustomProperty.owners.item(0);

Then your command or function with oModel here.

Cheers

What is the proper syntax in Jscript to run commands within a custom PPG
under a model so that they still function if the model name changes?  I
guess I'm looking for something like "ActiveSceneRoot" but for the
active model or whatever model the PPG is under.
