[REQUEST] Drop on a specified surface
-
Hi all,
This is a little request in order to complete the existing Drop plugin.
Issues of this plugin are well-known :
- drop on hidden entities
- interferences between dropped components
Is there a way to modify the Drop plugin to add an option to Drop on a specified surface, in order that the plugin ignores all the other entities ?
If someone already know a workaround to avoid thoses issues, I'm Listening !
Thanks in advance.

Raytracer ignores hidden entities: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=30509
I was thinking of doing a target surface thing - but the current version works well when you just hide the other geometry.
(Note that SU8 has a problem with it's raytracing method - so all the plugins that does this might act a little unpredictable in some cases.) -
Hi Thomthom,
Did not see the new features of your Raytracer plugin...or I missed them since the beginning

I'll give it a try, thanks !!Cheers.

How about Chris Fullmers Component onto Face plugin?
It does not exactly "drop" a component, but it places a copy of a component on the center of each selected face.
...
edit: on hidden faces it works as well!
