Maxscript - Access to Antialiasing filter

[J_man]

Hi VRay heads,

The MXS property name for the Antialisaing filter is filter_kernel, and I would expect this to be an Integer based property but it is a MaxObject.

renderers.current.filter_kernel
Area:(null)

and

show renderers.current
...
  .filter_kernel : maxObject
...

How can I set this property?

renderers.current.filter_kernel=Area
-- Unable to convert: Area to type: MaxObject

I read a little here, but this is quite old and doesn't quite answer the questions!

Some other fun:

classof renderers.current.filter_kernel
Area
superclassof renderers.current.filter_kernel
filter
renderers.current.filter_kernel.classid
#(2006000385, 0)
renderers.current.filter_kernel.superclassid
4256

Thanks for looking!

The filter kernel is a 3ds Max plugin (like textures etc); it is not an integer number. The correct way to set it is like this:

renderers.current.filter_kernel=Area()

- note the parentheses.
