[Plugin] Repeat Copy UPDATED 2-24-2010
-
Hey Chris,
Great plugin! A multicopy function
What i was wondering: how did you create that interface?
Was it with add_note? -
I imagine its drawn in the viewport using openGL (accessible when you create a tool.) add_note only allows you to add text.
-
It's done with the
view.draw_*commands. -
Thx !
-
I wanted to mention that there is yet another new version of the plugin updated to smustard, allowing the UI to be moved around and reset. Here is a quick video that shows this capability:

Have fun,

That's nuts, Chris!!!!!!

Chris, is there a way to add a "Pause" button which allow the user to pick a different set of components, them by clicking on it a again, it would resume with copying using the current parameters but with the new selection set.

I like the idea John, but it is a bit more complex to manage. With different sets of scale and randomness. Its hard to visualize. But it could be powerful for sure.
-
Hi Chris, not sure if I conveyed my suggestion clearly. My thought was that the "Pause Button" would replicate the process of closing the script, making a new selection, and then re-initiating the script.
John
-
Oh gotcha, I did think you were suggesting something a little more complicated.
Yes, that had crossed my mind - the ability to add or remove components from the selection set would be nice. I could see that feature being added to this script for sure.
How about just holding down shift activates this? Or I could make a button to toggle into selection mode.

Whatever is the easiest. Like to see key combo's close to SU's selection keys if possible; Ctrl-click to add to current selection, maybe Shift-Click to remove one at a time, and Alt-Click to start over.

Just bought it...very usefull Chris !! Thanks.
-
Yes, yes, most useful and thank you, but I must respectfully insist: where do those nice face-me trees come from which are in the page 1 tutorial? Your private collection seems not searchable from here, and a nice woods they would make should I need some place to inhabit.
-
Hey Brooke, I almost forgot to respond! The trees are just random trees I found on the 3d warehouse. I just tried to look for them again and no luck. The 3dwarehouse is really lame like that.
Chris
-
You are very kind, and yes it seems to be.
I will keep mine peeled.
Thank you much.
-
What about this suggestion from the first page of this thread? Will this be included someday? I really love this plugin, but that would make me like it even more.
@diego-rodriguez said:
thought. perhaps an option would be good to insert groups or components of two ways -
position> onto face
position> as the originalperhaps, following start of the tool. pressing Ctrl ( switch between insert original and ontoface)
-
Oh yeah, I do like that idea. I think I can implement it easy enough. I've got a few other things I am working on that I really need to get done before I update this unfortunately. I'd like to tidy up a bunch of these kinds of projects here soon though. I've got a bit of things outside of SU I'd like to get working on too.
I'll see what I can do, but don't expect anything very soon.
-
IsWon't your component on face plugin do that, Chris?
-
-
Yes its true. I can try to add that function to this script. Make it even a little more useful.
