Yes SavePointFile will only export point objects, not "edit points".

To export those you can convert selected curve edit points to point objects by copy/paste (ctrl+c/ctrl+v).

In v5 it's also possible to access the edit points by script, that would go like this:

var numpoints = crv.numEditPoints;
for ( var i = 0; i < numpoints; i++ )
{
    var pt = crv.getEditPoint( i );
    // use pt.x, pt.y, pt.z
}

Can you be more specific about how to use the dump function?

Hi probotix,

re:

Get the file MoI_v5_API_Documentation.htm from here:
https://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=10857.36

That has the code for a dump function, copy the dump function into your script and then you can call dump( obj ); which will list properties of that object.

Thanks Michael!

Is there a way to launch Moi from a console and print debug info from my scripts?

Hi probotix,

re:

Sorry no there isn't a way to print debug info to a system console.

A script can show a dialog box message using moi.ui.alert( 'text' ); or it can also write to MoI's log using moi.log( 'text' ); .

You can show the log using:
moi.ui.createDialog( 'ShowLog.htm' );
