      shift+click does not finish here in SU8 Windows...

      also having a hard time getting ivy to grow with successive clicks, sometimes it appears, sometimes it disappears, sometimes it grows "inside" boxes, usually doesn't grow past two or three clicks.

      nevertheless, the plugin is looking great and keep up the fantastic work!

        I just tried on a different computer and it's the same. Doesn't finish. SU 8 Windows 7.
        I also have another problem, and that is that even if I click several times it still wont branch.
        Just one single "curve". Also it disappears completely after some clicks.
        Didn't have a problem with earlier versions.

          Jeff, can you send me the SU model and let me try.

          Pixero, I installed new update and I get exactly same as you, it won't finish, only one branch shows.

            Ahhh, dangit. I just closed the window and didn't save it. I'll post a reproduction if it works.

            EDIT: Go figure. I can't reproduce the half-scattered effect. Still want the model?

              Thea users: uncheck 'export as components' before exporting.

              Did that, and still have leaves all over the place. SU 8, Win 7 64 Bit, Thea 1.0.9

              Here's the really weird thing; Exploding the ivy completely solves the problem, BUT, only for the ivy in the viewable area. In other words, if half the ivy is off the top of the screen when the exploding is done only the leaves in the viewport will remain attached to the vines/branches, the rest of the leaves are scattered when exported. (Disregard, couldn't reproduce the effect)

              Zooming out so that all ivy is visible and exploding the component completely before export to Thea is the workaround for now.

              unexploded

              Looks kinda hot and wilted.  Maybe needs water?

              Really liking this plugin and where it's going! 👍 👍

                That means it doesn't depends on SU version, but works without other plugins, otherwise doesn't ...which means conflict with some of them. Which?

                  Newest build working fine for me on Win 7 SU 8.

                  Here's a quick play. Swapped the dead looking default leaves for some Wisteria leaves and blooms. Amazing plugin!

                    BRAVO!! 👍

                    Wisteria, brilliant, and thanks for sharing the mats.

                    When I get time I'll attempt a grape vine using fur plugin

                      Here is a copy of the arbor with Wisteria. I have a nice climbing hydrangea in my garden that would make for a good test subject. I'd like to do a rose next though. I'm thinking Chris Fullmer's Components on to Faces plugin might be perfect to scatter 3D blooms across a set of leaves and then delete the leaves. I definitely need more hours in the day, strictly dedicated to "play" time.

                            The "i" does not work for me, yes I'm an IE user.

                              Not really sure. I left all the settings as default and what you see was my first quick attempt. I did scale the foliage up a little but the vine itself is on default settings using the 0.6.2 beta build with imperial units.

                                Solo,
                                oxer pointed out that it needs to be

                                key == 73 on PC's and key ==105 on Mac's

                                but it was changed to that for 6.0.2 so if your using 6.0.2 then maybe 73 is the spanish keycode for i.

                                I don't have a PC to check.

                                you can change line number 69 in Liveivy_tool.rb to whatever you know works, it was 82 for [r]...

                                Also it was previously on line number 73, so maybe there was a typo...

                                  hi all,

                                  I should have at least tweaked the current version... ahhh

                                  the <h4> headers need to be tweaked as well to be bold and centered

                                  <span style="margin-left; 50%; font-weight;900" class="label">Branch</span>
                                  

                                  NB: this may just be for safari...


                                  0.6.2

                                    hi
                                    sorry if the 'i' caused havoc for IE users,
                                    maybe someone can see if this breaks anything first,

                                    the formating in the main.html is broken in safari, which makes it hard to change settings.

                                    it's easily fixed by adding breaks between the list items, but I'm not sure what that does in IE...

                                    this may be just a safari thing,,,

                                    also can show_modal for mac return, I use a snippet I nicked that I believe works for both

                                    snippet REMOVED not working properly, will investigate???

                                    great work

                                    john

                                      Nice Plugin,but just for the report...

                                      When i trying v0.6.2,
                                      All feature inside Parameters it seem appearing and worked properly.
                                      Ctrl+click and Alt+click worked fine

                                      But when i try shift+click, nothing happen, so i cannot see the leaf 😢

                                      I Hope this problem would be solved on the next release

                                      Thanks in advance

                                        Also, I translate to spanish, here are the file, only rename to main.html

                                        Me he tomado la libertad de traducirlo al español, solo hay que renombrar el archivo a main.html

                                          When I start SU it begins with this:
                                          Error Loading File LiveIvy.rb
                                          Can't insert empty component.

                                          This is solved with replacing version 8 leaf components with version 7 in Textures folder...
