[Plugin] Repeat Copy UPDATED 2-24-2010
-
@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? -
I imagine its drawn in the viewport using openGL (accessible when you create a tool.) add_note only allows you to add text.
-
It's done with the
view.draw_*commands. -
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.

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.
-
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
-
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
-
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.
-
Just bought it...very usefull Chris !! Thanks.
-
Yes, yes, most useful and thank you, but I must respectfully insist: where do those nice face-me trees come from which are in the page 1 tutorial? Your private collection seems not searchable from here, and a nice woods they would make should I need some place to inhabit.
-
Hey Brooke, I almost forgot to respond! The trees are just random trees I found on the 3d warehouse. I just tried to look for them again and no luck. The 3dwarehouse is really lame like that.
Chris
-
You are very kind, and yes it seems to be.
I will keep mine peeled.
Thank you much.
-
What about this suggestion from the first page of this thread? Will this be included someday? I really love this plugin, but that would make me like it even more.
@diego-rodriguez said:
thought. perhaps an option would be good to insert groups or components of two ways -
position> onto face
position> as the originalperhaps, following start of the tool. pressing Ctrl ( switch between insert original and ontoface)
-
Oh yeah, I do like that idea. I think I can implement it easy enough. I've got a few other things I am working on that I really need to get done before I update this unfortunately. I'd like to tidy up a bunch of these kinds of projects here soon though. I've got a bit of things outside of SU I'd like to get working on too.
I'll see what I can do, but don't expect anything very soon.
-
IsWon't your component on face plugin do that, Chris?
