Hello,

I have create one script where i changing display mode to smooth mesh
preview.

cmds.displaySmoothness(object, divisionsU=3, divisionsV=3, pointsWire=16,
pointsShaded=4, polygonObject=3)

But some time maya give warning window "mesh contains a large number of
facets..."
and maya stuck until that window is open.

so i am looking to avoid this warning.
there is not flags of displaySmoothness or command that i can find
to avoid it.
i tried to find out face count of mesh and trying to know what
is threshold (face count) when maya giving this warning.
but with each object this count is totally change

ex: i create polyPlane with 1 face.
cmds.polySmooth("polyPlane ", dv=7)
print cmds.polyEvaluate("polyPlane ", f=True)
result: 4096
cmds.displaySmoothness("polyPlane ", divisionsU=3, divisionsV=3,
pointsWire=16, pointsShaded=4, polygonObject=3)

and

one single model it hase more then 50,000 face and still smooth mesh
preview works fine no warning.

Please can anyone know how can i avoid this ?
