Hi Matt, We didn't update docs for service pack release.
You can see their introduced version is v11.1(2013) in 2014 sdk manual. 11.1 means 2013 SP1. Thanks, Joany -------- Original message -------- From: Matt Lind <ml...@carbinestudios.com> Date: To: softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Subject: RE: custom operators and changing topology I’m on 2013 SP1, but those new methods are not shown in the SDK manuals. I think they were added in 2014.

I understand I need to classify that operator siClassifTopo, but not sure how to do that in c++ (the c++ methods for CreateParamDef in factory don't have the option to specify the classification that the object model has). what would be the right way to go about it?
