[Plugin] Compo Spray 1.4.2 Updated

[Didier Bur]

Yes compo_spray.rb was an older version. Never have more than one install at a time

[arjunmax09]

component spray doesn't allow spraying while editing inside a group..how can i do that...??...i have to copy paste the sprayed components inside the group separately...

[Didier Bur]

Hi,
@arjunmax09: of course you can spray while editing a group or component: double-click on the group/component, click the compoSpray icon and here you go.

[arjunmax09]

yes....i also tried at my home pc..it worked fine...i was working at my groupmate's place on his pc when i posted this question..there i wasn't able to do so I haven't downloaded this version yet...i.e. the 8th jan 2011 version...

Great start for 201x

[Didier Bur]

Hi Charly,

To get this menu, you must select faces PRIOR to click on the icon.
Do you still miss this menu when doing that ?

[charly2008]

Hi Didier,

the problem still exists.

Charly,
I don't see any problem here: the face is selected, so the dropdown list contains "selected faces" and "vertices of faces".
Close the dialog box, unselect all, re-launch compoSpray, it should now display the usual dropdown list , right ?

Hi Didier thanks,

I tried it again, now I have understood it.

If in the dialog box the component is selected, but no face is selected, than the pull down menu with the shapes is shown.
If in the dialog box the component is selected and the face is selected than the spray type menu is shown.

Hi,

Now that I have understood correctly, it excites me to return to the experiment.

Now I see what it is possible to achieve with Charly, I'm one step more contrite that Compo Spray doesn't work for me

Thanks!!

@pep75: the only thing I can tell is that there is "something" wrong.
Seriously, please open the ruby console, launch the tool, and copy-paste-post the error message(s) here, so I can figure out what's wrong.
Or download the version 1.4.2., see top of thread

Top-Down spray works fine. When I try the perpendicular spray, though, I consistently get this error ("This shape is not available yet"):

[Didier Bur]

Hi,
@tpstigers: Perhaps you didn't red the doc: it is said that this experimental tool only works with the point tool and spray shape tool

Thanks. I did read the doc. I guess I should have read it with my brain turned on.

Ah very cool!
Thx for the resizable Dialogue box!
for the next release : does it possible to have 24 #components?
(it's the 24 possible positions of a "cubic volume")
If you are interested I have yet the script for generated these components
(In python for Blender made by zeauro for 2.56 Blender)
So import these 24 objects in SU from Blender, then run CompoSpray
