Hi

 

In the absence of a handy Property that knows that what the Referenced Model is,  I iterated up from the Current object checking the .Model Parameter "storage_type" to see if it was loaded or not.

 

You could check for "Referenced_" being the first 11 characters of the Name as well, it would catch Referenced Models inside Reference Models then.

 

Excuse that safety "i"'s dotted around, iterations can be dangerous.

 

'-------------------------------------------------------------

function fnFindRefModel(oSelection)

     i = 0

     set oObject = oSelection
     do until oObject.Model.Parameters("storage_type").Value = False or i > 10
     set oObject = oObject.Model

 

     if i > 10 then Exit Do
     i = i + 1
     loop
 
     fnFindRefModel = oObject.Parent.Name

end function

that seems to be pretty wasteful, isn't it?

oModel = Application.Selection(0)
while not oModel.Model.IsEqualTo(Application.ActiveSceneRoot):
    oModel = oModel.Model

I'd recursively walk up the hierarchy.



// Collection to store all visited models
oModels = XSIFactory.createobject( "XSI.Collection" );

checkParent( selection(0) );

// Get model before last (last model being the scene root
oModel = oModels.item( oModels.count-2 );
logmessage( oModel.fullname );


function checkParent( oObject )
{
        if( oObject.type == "Scene" )
                return;
        else if( oObject.type == siModelType )
        {
                oModels.add( oObject );

        checkParent( oObject.parent );
