Undocumented MAXScript Features

Every now and then, I stumbled upon an undocumented command or optional keyword. Some of them were later added to the documentation, many of them are still undocumented. Some of those are listed in this article (I'm skipping a lot of stuff I don't find useful like the non-creatable MEditBkgnd texture map, creatable PFlow related classes etc).

Box3 Values
Just like the documented Box2 class, only in 3D. Pretty handy, using Box3 returned by the getNodeBBox method is much more flexible than the min+max array that's usually used instead. Edit: now documented, see Box3 Values.

Constructor
Box3() -- returns new 'empty' Box3 value
Box3 <min_point3> <max_point3>
Properties
<Box3>.min: Point3
<Box3>.max: Point3
<Box3>.center: Point3
Methods
contains <Box3> <point3>
intersects <Box3> <Box3>

translate <Box3> <point3>
scale <Box3> <point3>
enlargeBy <Box3> <float>

rectify <Box3>
makeCube <Box3> <point3> <float>

empty <Box3>
isEmpty <Box3>

getNodeBBox <node>
getModContextBBox <node> <modifier>
-- bool test for contained position
-- bool test for overlapping boxes

-- move box coords by offset
-- scale from the center of the box
-- expand box coords by offset

-- doesn't work
-- cube by center and size

-- set the box to a special 'empty' state
-- bool test for the special 'empty' state

-- node bounding box as a Box3 value
-- modContext bounding box as a Box3 value
Missing Render Dialog Variables
The following variables are missing from the Render Scene Dialog Global System Variables listing.
rendLockImageAspectRatio: Boolean
rendImageAspectRatio: Float
rendPixelAspectRatio: Float
rendUseImgSeq: Boolean
rendImgSeqType: Integer
rendViewID: Integer
Multiplier Curve and Ease Curve Access
Edit: now documented, see Controller Ease and Multiplier Curves.
getMultiplierCurve <controller> <index>
getEaseCurve <controller> <index>
High-precision Matrix Inverse
Used for example by the CreateCameraFromView function.
inverseHighPrecision <matrix3>
Xref Scene Overlay
As mentioned by Eric Craft in the Undocumented MAXScript Features thread.
<XRefScene>.overlay Boolean default:false

Editable Poly Current CommandMode
See the corresponding method in the Edit Poly chapter.
<enum><EditablePoly>.getCommandMode()
Edit Poly Ready to Bridge
Similar to <EditablePoly>.ReadyToBridgeFlagged(), only for Edit Poly modifier.
editPolyModReadyToBridge()
Edit Poly Methods
A categorized index of some of these with descriptions and sample code is available on the IllusionCatalyst website. For sample usage and a wrapper in the style of polyop methods, see the polyModOp struct.

<void>MatIDFloater()

<void>CommitPaintDeform()
<void>CancelPaintDeform()

There's also a method that's listed with no description:

<void>List node:<node>

It outputs the complete printout of the operations stored by the Edit Poly into the Macro Recorder window. To use it, open the MAXScript Listener window, make sure Macro Recorder is active, and with the Edit Poly modifier active in the stack run:

(modPanel.getCurrentObject()).List()

An example printout in the MacroRecorder window might look like this:

SimpleManipulator Flags
The addGizmoMesh method accepts an additional undocumented gizmoScaleToViewport flag. Mesh gizmo added with this flag will try and scale itself to have a constant size in the viewport. This size in pixels is given by the private ManipulatorGizmo::mGizmoSize variable which is not accessible from MAXScript (although there's getGizmoSize/setGizmoSize function ID pair, the property is not published).

custAttributes.setSceneLoadVersionHandlingBehavior <behavior_name>

custAttributes.setSceneMergeVersionHandlingBehavior <behavior_name>
Valid behavior_name values are:
    #neverUpdate

Schematic View Missing Methods
schematicView.numSchematicViews()
schematicView.getSchematicViewName <int>index
schematicView.open <string>name
schematicView.zoomSelected <string>name
schematicView.close <string>name
Assert Display Getter
Another of the getter/setter pairs that are not mentioned at all or just one of the pair. See 3ds Max Assert Display Functions for its counterpart and more information.
getMaxAssertDisplay()
Assert Equal for Point2 & Point4
See assert_point3_equal.
assert_point2_equal <point2>expected <expression>actual [tolerance:<float>] [message:<string>]
assert_point4_equal <point4>expected <expression>actual [tolerance:<float>] [message:<string>]

TMCache Switch
If you ever noticed your scripted rigs breaking in 2017 while they work perfectly well in 2016, be sure to check this. For more information about TMCache, see Fixing IK solver animation editing in 3ds Max 2017.
preferences.enableTMCache = off
DontRepeatMessages Context
Legacy setting, see preferences.dontRepeatRefMsg.
with dontRepeatMessages off ...
Convert to Integer
Unlike the as integer cast, thiw one will error out when a string is passed to it.
int <number>
IndirectRefTargContainer
See RefTargContainer, same constructor and methods apply. For example usage, check the source of my Advanced Sweep scripted modifier where the RefTargContainer is used to store CurveCtl as a maxObject parameter.
IndirectRefTargContainer..
NodeMonitor
Similar to the NodeTransformMonitor but doesn't pass transform messages. Searching cgtalk and looking for denisT's posts and sample code will tell you more, for example Using controllers with scripted plugins - "this node".
nodeMonitor <node>
SnapshotAsMesh Optional RenderMesh Keyword
See the cgtalk thread. Still missing from the official documentation.
snapshotAsMesh <node> [ renderMesh:<boolean> ] 
RenderPresets Optional loadNodes Argument
As mentioned in 3ds max 7 release notes, loading presets that contain node associations displays a dialog requiring user interaction. To bypass the dialog, you can use the following syntax:
<boolean>renderPresets.Load <integer>which <filename>file <bitArray>categories [ loadNodes:<enum: {#Yes|#No|#Cancel|#Prompt}> ]
Specifying loadNodes with #Yes, #No or #Cancel will not display the Prompt window and will perform the same actions as pressing the respective buttons in the prompt. Specifying #Prompt will display the dialog and require user input. If you do not specify loadNodes and the file contains nodes associated, the prompt window will be displayed.

Optional Keyword Arguments for Cloned Objects
Just like with the createInstance function, you can pass any of the constructor arguments when creating a cloned object (say copy obj transform:TM).
copy <MAXWrapper_object> [ keyarg1:v ] [ keyarg2:v ] ..
instance <MAXWrapper_object> [ keyarg1:v ] [ keyarg2:v ] ..
reference <MAXWrapper_object> [ keyarg1:v ] [ keyarg2:v ] ..
CreateInstance Optional ForceCreate Argument
Allows creation of classes that otherwise return Runtime error: Not creatable.
createInstance <MAXClass> forceCreate:<boolean=false> [ keyarg1:v ] [ keyarg2:v ] ...
Scripted SimpleSpline Plug-in
Similar to Scripted SimpleObject Plug-ins, instead of a predefined mesh variable, a bezierShape one is used. See for example my Arrow spline primitive script for example usage.
plugin simpleSpline ...
on buildShape do <expr>
Similar Nodes
Same criteria as used by Edit > Select Similar.
getSimilarNodes <node>
Current Selection Set Name
As displayed in the main menu bar, i.e. returns "Create Selection" if empty.
getCurNameSelSet()
FromattedPrint String Type
As spotted by Martin Breidt, not only you can pad numbers using formattedPrint, by using the 's' character to indicate the passed argument is a string you can also pad strings:
formattedPrint "string" format:"10s"
--> "    string"
There are other undocumented types used by the format literal, such as c/C (wide/single-byte char), a/A ([−]0xh.hhhh p/P±dd hexadecimal double) or p (hexadecimal pointer address). For more details see the '_snwprintf' function documentation.

Display Filter
Similar to the documented registerSelectFilterCallback.
registerDisplayFilterCallback <filterFunction> <name>
unregisterDisplayFilterCallback <filterFunction>
SkinOps Missing Arguments and Methods

getAnimPointer <MAXWrapper_object>
ShowDialog
Hide/show existing dialog without destroying it.
showDialog <rollout> <boolean>
Dialog Visibility
Useful whenever you want to test if the dialog is displayed (for example in the isChecked macroScript event handler). Similar to <rollout>.inDialog.
isDialogVisible <rollout>
Windows Struct Methods
windows.getParentHWND <IntegerPtr>hWnd
Numbered String
Used by Render to Texture to produce a filename with frame number, adds a 4-character zero-padded suffix (or more, if the string representation of number is longer).

Biped Methods
As posted to For those of you still stuck using biped and copy-collections.
