self installing Custom filters and menus

[Matt Lind]

Anybody know how to define a self installing custom filter to make it available from the SDK, but NOT display in the MCP’s selection filter list?

 

Thanks,

Unfortunately that changes the filter type.  Can’t do that.

If you are using the siFilter3DObject type or siFilterProperty then it will appear in the MCP menu as all custom object & property filters are set to show.

Unfortunate.  I was expecting the behavior found with commands where it would only appear if registered in a menu using PluginRegistrar.RegisterMenu().
