subdiv([currentLevel=boolean], [currentSubdLevel=boolean], [deepestLevel=int], [displayLoad=boolean], [edgeStats=boolean], [faceStats=boolean], [maxPossibleLevel=int], [proxyMode=int], [smallOffsets=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
subdiv is undoable, queryable, and NOT editable.
Provides useful information about the selected subdiv or components, such
as the deepest subdivided level, the children or parents of the currently
selected components, etc.
None
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Properties |
deepestLevel(dl)
|
int
|
 
|
|
When queried, this flag returns an integer representing the
deepest level to which the queried subdiv surface has
been subdivided.
|
|
maxPossibleLevel(mpl)
|
int
|
|
|
When queried, this flag returns an integer representing
the maximum possible level to which the queried subdiv surface can
been subdivided.
|
|
currentLevel(cl)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag returns an integer representing
the level of the currently selected subdiv surface component(s).
Returns -1, if there are more than one level of CVs are selected,
(even if they are from different objects)
Returns -2, if there are no input subdiv CVs to process.
|
|
currentSubdLevel(csl)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag returns an integer representing
the level of the currently selected subdiv surface, regardless
of whether components are selected or not.
Returns -2, if there are no input subdiv CVs to process.
|
|
faceStats(fst)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag prints stats on the current subd.
|
|
edgeStats(est)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag prints stats on the current subd.
|
|
displayLoad(dsl)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag prints the display load of selected subdiv
|
|
smallOffsets(so)
|
boolean
|
|
|
When queried, this flag prints the number of subdiv vertices in the
hierarchy that have a small enough offset so that the vertex is not required
|
|
proxyMode(pm)
|
int
|
|
|
When queried, this flag returns an integer representing
whether or not the subdivision surface is in "polygon proxy" mode.
"Proxy" mode allows the base mesh of a subdivision surface
without construction history to be edited using the polygonal
editing tools.
Returns 1, if the subdivision surface is in "polygon proxy" mode.
Returns 0, if the surface is not currently in "proxy" mode, but could
be put into "proxy" mode since it has no construction history. (This state
is also known as "standard" mode.)
Returns 2, if the surface is not in "proxy" mode and cannot be put
into proxy mode, as it has construction history.
