    If you mean the displacemap option in a material, as Stan said you can do this with Zorb. Go to the material tab, then properties and scroll down until you find the texmap_displacement option. Alternatively you can use Mission Control if you have access to the beta, but for now there's no option to enable all checkboxes at once. I'll mail Patrick to see if he can implement this (or maybe I'm using it wrong).

    Hi Vizeon,
    That's right, at the moment my mass editing tools are limited to integer/float values.
    One workaround to try is to set one checkbox to what you want, then right-click- copy that cell, and then select all the material displacement enabled parameters cells you want to update and right-click paste.
    Not the nicest workflow, but at least it gets the job done. I need to add UI and functionality for the other parameter data types; eg boolean, object lists, material lists, colour, etc.
    Thanks for raising MC as an option!
    Cheers

      I still don't get why you guys are trying to find difficulties where there isn't any.

      As I said in my first post, if it was the displace in the material, VMC would handle that just fine, and super fast/not cluncky/no lag/just works

      Video showing how it works just in case

        So much discussion over a one-liner.

        Code:
        (getClassInstances VrayMtl).texmap_displacement_on = on

            Sorry Stan but your post about VMC didn't really make much sense to me And I thought you meant it wasn't possible with VMC so I didn't bother checking;

              Sorry Stan, just thought I'd clarify how you could make mass edits to boolean values with Mission Control. In this case VMC/Zorb/maxscript-oneliner do the job fine too!
