[REQUEST] PlanarDraw
-
Is there a script, or can someone make a script, that makes it possible to only draw in 2d in the xy plane?
In other words makes it impossible to accidently draw in the z axis.
Usage would be to draw flat in the top view without messing up with lines with accidental depth. -
That's one of the workarounds I have figured out.
I've also used my Align script to do this after but it's not great for the workflow.
So the question remains.
Is it possible to either "wrap" the pen tool with another script that sets all z values to 0 when drawing or create a new custom 2D-Pen tool that does it? -
I think it would be possible to create custom drawing tools that stick only to z=0. It might be some work though to recreate pencil, rectangle, arc, circle, freehand tools. But maybe it would not be that bad...?

The pencil tool would do for now...and perhaps arc.

Draw a very big rectangular Face in a Group with a transparent material and your Lines will always snap onto it or other Edges etc. The Face-Group can be moved in Z to suit the Plane you are drawing on ?

Would it be possible to "wrap" the pencil tool with eventRelay http://code.google.com/p/eventrelay/ and exchance all z values with 0 before proceeding to draw the line?
