I need mel or python script to highlight polygons inside edges.


ConvertSelectionToContainedFaces not working
Thanks for any help!

Hope this helps, the problem is that the script doesn't know witch side to select but it will select one side, if it's the wrong one you just have to use Inverse Selection(Ctrl+Shift+I)

string $selE[] =`ls -sl -fl`;
int $selTyp = `selectType -q -meshComponents`;
string $temp[];
tokenize $selE[0] "."  $temp;
string $theObj = $temp[0];
polyUVSet -create -uvSet "TempWWWUvSetB" $theObj;
polyUVSet -currentUVSet -uvSet "TempWWWUvSetB" $theObj;
int $fObj1[] = `polyEvaluate -f`;
string $ffObj = ($theObj+".f[0:"+$fObj1[0]+"]");
select -r $theObj;
polyProjection -ch 1 -type Planar -ibd off -kir  -md z $ffObj;
polyMapCut -ch 1 $selE;
select -r ($theObj+".map["+$fObj1[0]+"]");
polySelectBorderShell 0;
string $shUV[] = `ls -sl -fl`;
string $myFaces[] = `polyListComponentConversion -fuv -tf -in`;
select -r $myFaces;
polyUVSet -uvs "TempWWWUvSetB" -delete;
hilite -r $theObj;
if($selTyp == 1){
  selectType -meshComponents true;  
}else{
    selectType -pf true;
}
