mcjSelectAllMyChildren: DS 1- 4 Script selects all sub-nodes of selected nodes

mCasual

Save a second of work here save a second of work there and soon you saved 2 seconds of work.

so, you want to make the AmyWagen prop invisible, and you select the root node, turn off visibiliity and ......... the 50 sub-props are still visible !

but now with mcjselectallmychildren

select the root node, run the script

Bam, all 50 sub-props selected

turn off visibility in 1 click

Also very practical for fingers animation

in fact the code is so simple i'll post it here
for edumational purposes
"is our children learning?"

 

var roots = Scene.getSelectedNodeList();var n = roots.length;for( var i = 0; i < n; i++ ){ selectChildren( roots[ i ] )} function selectChildren( root ){  var children = root.getNodeChildren( true ); //recurse  var n = children.length; for( var i = 0; i < n; i++ ) {  var node = children[ i ];  node.select( true ); }}

Thanks Casual, your scripts are always useful.

I might even have a look at how it works :)

Many thanks for this, Casual.
Again one of those "Must Have" from you.
I use your "Come Here" script all the time.

So this will work on say Genesis and all the body parts too? If so that would be so awesome. It's such a pain to run through turning off all the fingers .. YUK!

Thanks so much Casual!

yest though in DS 4.5 you have to be careful not to select the root node when you select the body part

here i selected the foreArm and the script selected the hand and fingers

Thanks casual..
but daz has already this function.

so i change some code to hide toggle from select.
it's very convenient to me. :D

====================================

var roots = Scene.getSelectedNodeList();
var n = roots.length;
for( var i = 0; i < n; i++ )
{
roots.setVisible(!roots.isVisible());
selectChildren( roots )
}

function selectChildren( root )
{
var children = root.getNodeChildren( true ); //recurse
var n = children.length;
for( var i = 0; i < n; i++ )
{
var node = children;
node.setVisible(!node.isVisible());
}
}
