The glitch with 'Tab' [9] on MAC etc trapped by using 'key-up' not 'key-down' check
Don't know why... but it works...
working now on mac..
i'll check 2d tools in a little bit.
thanks a ton.[ed]- keycode.rb now returns 9 when releasing the tab key.. there's only one other key on my keyboard that exhibits the same behavior (no number on keydown) and that's the delete key 127

Tab on OSX doesn't work on keyDown?

correct.
it appears to do absolutely nothing (in sketchup)depending on my system prefs, keydown will either activate the VCB regardless of what tool i'm using or cycle through all of my toolbar icons. (ie- i can activate a tool via it's icon without mouse clicking it)
it's as if the system is keeping tab keydown for itself and won't allow it to be re-assigned

TIG, thanks for the plugin
Rich, thanks for the video

Wow! Awesome. That's what I needed.
Thanks, TIG.

A typo (= v ==) in code corrected around line#708: was not affecting results.
The Gizmos' Guides are displayed even when Guides are set to be 'off' in the current Style [the 'off' setting is momentarily suspended and then restored]. -
Salut Γ tous, Wow! Awesome, very useful.
Thanks, TIG.

You might have seen elsewhere on the forums that a fix for the Instructor window has been stumbled upon... which means it can now be used for custom tools [with the right code] as well as the built-in tools...
My FreeRotate always had the Instructor window's files etc, but they never displayed... until now. It was believed that the Instructor part of th API was broken, but it turns out that although it is 'sort of', it is fixable after all with some ingenuity in building the file-paths etc...
FreeRotate's Instructor window should work cross-platform - feedback please, especially from MAC users...
-
I see trails in the Instructor dialog box. I can see it but each transitions is slighty greyed resulting in below...
-
i know... I noticed this too... I need to have a look at the gif to see if I can improve it
PS: the gif is fine BUT SUp itself seems to add some ghosting... I'm going to compare it with the built in stuff...
The html/gif/css works fine in an ordinary browser - the browser that loads for the Instructor is screwed...
I just wanted to get the thing out and tested to see what the issues are if any, especially with MACs or users with odd set ups...... -
It's perfect in Firefox and IE.
-
What versions of IE are you guys dealing with?
-
I have IE8...
It loads OK directly in that... but when it loads via SUp it's 'ghosting'...
My html's code is just cloned from the built-in Instructor html files... -
ie9

Embedded webcontrols falls back to quirks more often than the standalone - so one doesn't always get the same results. -
I am trying to download the Free Rotate 4.4 zip file. Somehow I am not authorized although I think that I registered myself correctly: Usename AnnetGroneman. Please help

Hi Annet,
If you can post, you are registered correctly and also logged in. There must be something else. What do you actually see? Is it a red/pink bar showing that you are not authorised?

I just wanted to say thanks for this little gem, TIG...I just used it for the first time, and it works like a charm

I think the initial pivot point should be one of two:
- If the idea is to 'select geometry' => run plugin => pivot point and direction automatically selected - it should use the original component's axis point along with the blue orientation.
Hi Tig,
Is there any chance you could add a toggle, to select the original component's axis point, along with the blue direction, as a point and direction of rotation. ?It would be really useful for pointing a bunch of similar components to this or that point, with out the need to select the first two points for each component rotation.

Here's an explanatory movie kindly made by Rich O'Brien [rclub24] - one of the first in a series of plugin tutorials that he plans to make. Many thanks

This is a quick overview - so please note that as well as snapping to the 'gizmos' you can also snap to 'anything else' in the model to set the rotation/alignment, and in the Axial mode you can also type in a -/+ Angle in degrees too...
