Generally speaking, you don't want PPGs and other UI displaying when running 
code.  That's why ApplyOp() doesn't spawn a PPG.  The menu that calls the 
smooth deformer probably has a little code wrapped around ApplyOp() to open the 
PPG if successful.

Subject: Force ppg to open on script launch

I'm a little confused as to why the following does not work:

Get a sphere

Run Deform  > Smooth

PPG appears and all is good.

Now, take the generated command and run it through the script editor

ApplyOp("Smooth", "torus", 3, siPersistentOperation, null, 0);

This time, no PPG appears.

Any idea why? And is there a way to force a ppg launch when I tun the command 
from a button or from the script editor?

Thanks :-)

Adam
