[Plugin] Selection Toys
-
Yeah Modo looks sweet, kinda' reminded me of Blender,
you know the one you have to be a micro physicist.I will/can say, Wings3D doesn't do all that. It's just
a simple modeler/mesh manipulator.I presently use Strata for rendering. Although, I
haven't had to do much rendering of late.SU has definitely made things easier for me, I thought
I was going to be stuck with Wings, until I stumbled
across SU. -
ThomThom: I downloaded the update on your "selection toys".
After a while my right click selection tools grey out and
I cannot select anything. Never had this problem so I took out
the plug-in and things worked fine.This might be a conflicting with another plug-in I have
but the version I had before didn't cause this problem.
Not sure which version it was. might be simple to add the
version # to the .rb when you update.Not sure if anyone else is having this issue.
Thought you would like to know. -
HM.. that's odd. I'm not actually sure you you mean either when you say "right click selection tools grey out".
You get no right-click menu? -
By the way Kyprus: if you have the Ruby Console open and that thing happen, do you get messages then?
-
I get a right click menu but most of it greys out when
I know they should be there.Yes, I have a ruby console. Not sure why. I haven't had
the time nor patience to figure it all out. I'll place
the plug-in back in the proper directory and see if there
is anything in the console.I did have to use the plug-in. so, I placed it back
into the plugins directory, I forgot about it and it
happened again. but once I deleted it out of the directory
re-started SU all was fine. This doesn't happen right away.
it takes time for it to arise. but, it has happen twice
but solved when I delete the .rb . (this was earlier today/
last night).But I will see if anything is in the console next time.
-
Please let me know if you get any messages in the console. I've not yet seen that behaviour. As you say, it could be conflicting with another plugin which I might not have installed.
Also, could you take a screenshot when it happens?

-
I believe I might have sorted out the disabled menu problem.
Would you mind testing the plugin for me to see if it's sorted for sure? Send me a PM with your email. -
thomthom: Apologies for not getting that screenshot to you.
I just haven't had the time.
I downloaded the the new version I'll put it in today
and give it a run. Thank you.My email is kyprusplacid [at] g.mail dot com . I have gtalk.
so, once you send me an email you will be on my IM.
we can talk then, if you have gtalk. -

This is the screenshot of the app., with the grey-out
on the right-click tools.http://picasa***.google.com/kyprusplacid/SU?authkey=yW_XtO3TIMw&feat=directlink
There was nothing in the Ruby console.
Not sure if I'm suppose to type something
in there or not to get feedback. Nore
would I know what to type.Guess this isn't much help.
this is with the new update by the way. -
No worries. I saw it myself when I used the plugin quite a bit. I did some changes and after that it appeared to be gone. That's what I'll be sending you tomorrow.
-
Updated with some important bug fixes to prevent bugsplats.
A couple of extra select variations added. -
By request http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=16665, added filters for entities with Default material.
-
Cool, thanks Thomas!

Thxs Thomas this plugin is a must
-
Added selection methods for Dynamic Components. Same as regular components, except it allows you to select by DC family.
-
Fixed an issue where the DC menu would not appear if there was only one instance of the DC variant.
-
Does your selection tools, or is it possible in general, to select an adjacent edge after selecting a single edge in an exploded curve? then the next and so on by clicking (with your 'tool' selected) arbitrarily rather than finding little edges, zooming in clicking, paning clicking etc - finally the curve is completely selected or as much of it as you want, you can use weld.
this would help with complex models and tight spaces.

cNot currently. But it's something I have on my todo list.
