The following correct code leads to a syntax error in the MAXSCRIPT listener in 3dsmax Design 2012 (sp1 & sp2), which is not normal :

rci = rolloutCreator "myRollout1" "My Rollout1"
rci.begin()
rci.addControl #checkbutton #myButton0 "My Button"

rci.addHandler #myButton0 #changed paramStr:"state" codestr:"print \"test !\""

rci.end()

createDialog rci.def

As a test, the following code shows not error by the listener

rci = rolloutCreator "myRollout1" "My Rollout1"
rci.begin()
rci.addControl #checkbutton #myButton0 "My Button"

rci.addHandler #myButton0 #changed  codestr:"print \"test !\""

rci.end()

createDialog rci.def

but leads to an argument error when pressing the checkbutton, which is normal as the addHandler function is missing the ‘paramStr’ argument.

Is this bug known? Any chance to get an hotfix?

Thanks for any comments/response

it is a known bug. You can over work around it by making sure the first character in your param string is a space.

Actually it is not the first character but the last that should be a space in the param string.

To be explicit, the following code shows no syntax error

rci = rolloutCreator "myRollout1" "My Rollout1"
rci.begin()
rci.addControl #checkbutton #myButton0 "My Button"

rci.addHandler #myButton0 #changed paramStr:"state " codestr:"print \"test !\""

rci.end()

createDialog rci.def

Thank for your reply!!
