Here’s a simple Python snippet that shows how to traverse the object hierarchy to get at a Texture Projection Definition. Note that I’m not looping over any of the collections, I just get the first element with “(0)” on lines 25, 28, and 31.

si=Application
dict=si.Dictionary

def dispFix( badDispatch ):
	import win32com.client.dynamic
	# Re-Wraps a bad dispatch into a working one:
	return win32com.client.dynamic.Dispatch(badDispatch)

o = dict.GetObject( "grid1" )

# Get the texture coordinates (aka the Sample cluster)
c = o.ActivePrimitive.Geometry.Clusters.Filter( "sample" )(0)

# Get  the Texture Projection
uv = c.Properties.Filter( "uvspace" )(0)

# Get  the Texture Projection Definition
uvdef = uv.NestedObjects.Filter( "uvprojdef" )(0)
print si.ClassName(uvdef)

# Get a texture projection parameter (in this example, the U translation)
x = dispFix(uvdef)
projtrsu = x.Parameters("projtrsu")

print si.ClassName( projtrsu )
print projtrsu.FullName

Here’s what the hierarchy looks like in the SDK explorer:

The old-school way to do it for a single object is with GetValue.
To get a collection of objects, use the XSICollection.Items property.

# Python
from sipyutils import disp        # win32com.client.Dispatch

allColl = disp("XSI.Collection");
allColl.items = Obj.FullName + ".polymsh.cls.*.Material"

// JScript
var allColl = new ActiveXObject("XSI.Collection");
allColl.items = Obj.FullName + ".polymsh.cls.*.Material"

Here’s a little Python snippet that creates a bunch of text objects, one for each item in a list. Note the handling of multiple lines (elements in triple quotes).

names = ["Test", """Coming
Soon""", "XSI",
"""one
two
THREE""", "SUMATRA"]

for n in names:
                text = Application.CreateMeshText("CurveListToSolidMeshForText", "siPersistentOperation")
                if n.find( "\n" ):
                                n = n.replace( "\n", "\\par\r\n" )
                                Application.SetValue(str(text) + ".crvlist.TextToCurveList.text.singleline", 0, "")
                                
                Application.SetValue(str(text) + ".crvlist.TextToCurveList.text.text", "%s%s%s" % ("_RTF_{\\rtf1\\ansi\\deff0{\\fonttbl{\\f0\\froman\\fcharset0 Arial;}}\r\n\\viewkind4\\uc1\\pard\\lang1033\\f0\\fs20 ", n, "\\par\r\n}\r\n"), "")
                Application.SetValue(str(text) + ".extrudelength", 1, "")
