MAX Commands in MAXScript

In addition to controlling modeling and animation, MAXScript scripts can invoke 3ds Max menu and toolbar commands. You do this using the "max" keyword.

FOR EXAMPLE

``` max file open max unhide all max quick render

```

The keyword max is followed by one or more words that describe the command. The available commands can be displayed by using the "?" character in a partial max command.

FOR EXAMPLE

``` max time ? --shows all the time-related commands max sel ? --shows all the commands with ’sel’ in them as a substring max ? --shows all the commands (there are a lot)

```

For a complete list of max commands, see the MAX Commands topic.
