In the slate material editor, I can right click a material and toggle "show Standard Map in Viewport". How can I toggle/set this option of a material programatically from maxscsript?

Simply use the materials .ShowInViewport property.

example: myMaterial.showInViewport = on

On the Top of the Menu Bar, While You are choosing/Clicking "Material Editor" Button, Left Click That Button for More Than 1 Second, You Will Get another Advanced Option Material Editor you can toggle between this option.

You can also use the function showTextureMap,

It works on the material level and the texturemap level:

Example 1: showTextureMap $box001.material On

Example 2: showTextureMap $box001.material $box001.material.diffusemap On

To turn it off, just type Off at the end instead of On
