      I don't know what language 3ds plugins use - is the source viewable?

          One major thing that Maxscripts/3smax addons have in their powerful favor, is that 3dsmax has built in great GUI support for its scripts. Well, its not beautiful, but look how easy it is to make buttons, lists, status boxes, separate UI areas, etc. I am really not enjoying learning JS and HTML 😞 I have gone stagnant because it is so painful, but I have to have a better UI to implement 90% of my ideas at this point...

            hm... coming from a webdeveloper background - I haven't thought too much of it. But I see that in general that HTML + CSS + JS is a bit much to learn just to make a UI for a SU plugin.

            Something which would be interesting if Google would address...

            Chris: have you considered the UI type the Fredo uses? Viewport drawn UI?

              Yes, I have also played with that. Then Fredo released his cool script and beat me to the punch, so I sort of dropped it. I am still holding on to the belief that I can leanr JS and HTML.

              I just don't know how to make HTML do what I want just yet.

                Give me a description of what you'd like and I can give you some pointers. (Next week - I'll be in Oslo until Sunday now. ...provided I get around to pack... πŸ˜’ )

                  ? Why drop it? (are we talking about the same thing here?)
