Thanks Wind-Born

Great update Chris

@Jim

huh

Well..........i thought i saw Jim, must be imagining things

To upgrade, you can track down the email with the link. Or you can also install the smustard toolbar plugin

(www.smustard.com)

and I think that lets you track updates easily on your smustard plugins. I think ti checks for updates and then lets you update them easily.

thanks, sweet!!!!

Very cool Chris, an army of Sangs in 1 minute

@wind-borne at this time there is no built in way to move the UI. It is something that is planned and really is not terribly hard to fix. I'll look into it, but expect anything super soon.

Looking pretty sweet chris Like the look of the on-screen interface.

Hey Chris,

Great plugin! A multicopy function

What i was wondering: how did you create that interface?
Was it with add_note?

remus · 23 Feb 2010, 11:16

I imagine its drawn in the viewport using openGL (accessible when you create a tool.) add_note only allows you to add text.

thomthom · 23 Feb 2010, 11:58

It's done with the view.draw_* commands.

Pout · 23 Feb 2010, 12:48

Thx !

I wanted to mention that there is yet another new version of the plugin updated to smustard, allowing the UI to be moved around and reset. Here is a quick video that shows this capability:

That's nuts, Chris!!!!!!

Chris, is there a way to add a "Pause" button which allow the user to pick a different set of components, them by clicking on it a again, it would resume with copying using the current parameters but with the new selection set.

Chris Fullmer · 25 Feb 2010, 03:45

I like the idea John, but it is a bit more complex to manage. With different sets of scale and randomness. Its hard to visualize. But it could be powerful for sure.

JClements · 26 Feb 2010, 02:20

Hi Chris, not sure if I conveyed my suggestion clearly. My thought was that the "Pause Button" would replicate the process of closing the script, making a new selection, and then re-initiating the script.

John

Chris Fullmer · 26 Feb 2010, 02:38

Oh gotcha, I did think you were suggesting something a little more complicated.

Yes, that had crossed my mind - the ability to add or remove components from the selection set would be nice. I could see that feature being added to this script for sure.

How about just holding down shift activates this? Or I could make a button to toggle into selection mode.

Chris

JClements · 27 Feb 2010, 23:47

Whatever is the easiest. Like to see key combo's close to SU's selection keys if possible; Ctrl-click to add to current selection, maybe Shift-Click to remove one at a time, and Alt-Click to start over.
