Does anyone know of a script/plugin that would make this possible? I'd like to be able to collapse modifiers down to top Edit Poly modifier instead of just the base Editable Poly, but afaik it can't be done by default in Max.

    This sounded similar to a script I already had so I took a shot at it. This seems to work with cursory testing ... It assumes you have a single object selected:

    selObj = selection[1]
    idx = 1
    
    for m in selObj.modifiers do
    (
        if( classOf( m ) == Edit_Poly ) do
        (
            maxOps.CollapseNodeTo $ idx off
            exit
        )
        
        idx += 1
    )
    
    I am a super newbie MaxScript writer so if there are rancid issues with this, I apologize. :P
