Problem

Description:

GetFrozen() and GetHidden() functions are not working, both in 3ds max 2016 and 2017

Steps to Reproduce:

while edit guides modifier is selected and active in the modifier panel, executing these lines throws an error in the listener

$.modifiers[#Ox_Edit_Guides].GetHidden()

$.modifiers[#Ox_Edit_Guides].GetFrozen()

The documentation seems to be out of sync with the code. There are no such exported MaxScript functions.

Please try with GetStrandVisibility() and GetStrandSelectability()

You need to use GetStrandVisibility and GetStrandSelectability functions, which return the opposite values (strands not hidden, and not frozen). I updated the docs for V6.

Thanks.

 GetStrandVisibility and GetStrandSelectability are working just fine.
