Materials of a DzMaterialSelectionSet?

  If I understand what you're asking, it ounds like you want to iterate over all the materials in the shape. Did you try using the getMaterial() method? 

  Something like this?

  var aMaterials = []

  for (var x = 0; x < shape.getNumMaterials(); x++) {

    aMaterials.push (shape.getMaterial(x));

  }

  Thanks for reply. What I need is information about which material is assigned to which selection set.

  Ah. Sorry, I misread your ask. 

  So out of curiosity, I don't see the DzShape.getMaterialSelectionSets() in the API docs? Is that an undocumented method?

  Yes, it is.

  DzMaterialSelectionSets is undocumented and therefore subject to change...

  DzMaterialSelectionSets.getMaterials(DzShape*, bool)

  The boolean parameter appears to be whether or not to recurse, and defaults to true if not specified.

   

  Using Genesis 8.1 Female:

  var oShape = Scene.getPrimarySelection().getObject().getCurrentShape();
  var oMaterialSelectionSets = oShape.getMaterialSelectionSets();
  for (var i = 0; i < oMaterialSelectionSets.getNumChildren(); i++)
  {
  	var oMaterialSelectionSet = oMaterialSelectionSets.getChild(i);
  	var oMaterials = oMaterialSelectionSet.getMaterials(oShape, false);
  	print (oMaterialSelectionSet.name);
  	oMaterials.forEach(function(x)
  	{
  		print (" " + x.name);
  	});
  }

  Thanks a lot. Works well also with Genesis 9.
