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.

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
