      Hi Dezmo,

      Thanks for this plugin - it's really useful for people working with pipes... ๐Ÿ‘
      In the past I worked with cooling and ventilation systems and I've been using the 3skeng plugin, but I really like your plugin... ๐Ÿ˜„

      Is it possible only to have the outer mesh of the pipe?
      I'm asking about this, as the thickness isn't really needed and if you have very complex models, it will take a lot of geometry and make SU slow when orbiting the model...

      Nice to see if you like my plugin!

      Put 0 to inner diameter... ๐Ÿ˜‰

        So obvious... ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿ‘

        I don't have the need for making pipes in my new position with another company - at least it will be very rare...
        But I will definitely recommend your plugin to the company I worked with in the past...
        They're still using the 3skeng plugin, but your plugin have some great features...
        In particular I like the way users can make their own libraries...
        The company I worked with used a special DIN and I always had to adjust radius for bends and length of reducers etc...
        With the option your plugin has, it's much easier... ๐Ÿ‘

        Cheers
        Kim Frederik

          Yes. Thanks for nice words. And you are right this was the main goal to use external file as a dimensions, so you can quickly choose what you want. Sure, you can override it manually you don't need some dimensions so often.

          As you can see you can "play" a lot with parameters but at the end you can resize the UI to smaller and you can use as a "toolbar" only...

          (BTW when I'm finishing my work in Denmark ๐Ÿ˜‰ I'll try to make some "final tune" on PomPi and the user manual... but I still can't give a deadline... )

                    • The HTML UI tuned (horizontal UI removed)
                    • User input check is massively improved
                      Note the input fields check still not 100% complete, be careful what you type in. If you got crash please report here!
                    • Undo stack is more clear now
                    • User manual updated
                    • Other small improvement
                    • clean up, reduce file sizes, typos etc...
                    • small bugs, and other things what I don't remember...

                      If you are interested in French UI and manual in French, don't hesitate! ๐Ÿ˜„
                      Seems remember i have made the 3SKeng and site in French in the past for the fun! ๐Ÿ’š
                      (seems they have updated that! There is only rest the menu on the left! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                      For the UI I need a list or a multi-Language system, because I don't want to swim in the code! ๐Ÿ˜„

                      Is beautiful that please without concept!

                        But unfortunately the code itself is not prepared for more than 1 language. (yet?) But at least the manual can be useful... ๐Ÿ˜‰

                              One thing I'm really missing is the ability to make bends other than 90 degree...
                              With the 3skeng you have the option to select the bend degree when connecting it to a pipe...

                              If I select the pipe and bend, I can't get i.e. a 45 degree angle...

                              Cheers

                                Oh, yes. Originally it is designed to make perpendicular piping between two existing point, when I did not think even of the Pipe Auto function.
                                But I get the idea of "pipe auto" and started to work on it, than pipe&bend remained as it is.

                                The drawn line endpoint is the 90ยฐbend "other end" "horizontal" projection to be able to align to the next component. Right now the pipe length is the distance between picked point minus the bend radius. I do not know what should be the length if the angle is different than 90ยฐ, because the "end" face of the bend looking somewhere other direction than the length of the pipe+bend "height" (bend "height" = the bend two end face middle point distance.)
                                If I allowing to put other than 90ยฐ I have to calculate backwards somehow and I would heve to know in advance the "height" of the bend + pipe length.
                                Did you get my explanation, because I'm already lost... ๐Ÿ˜„

                                So lot of questions raises regards your "simple" request.

                                I'll see if I can do something... Currently I don't have any idea and my boss extended my work for (in) Denmark & the holiday season is also here... ๐Ÿ˜Ž

                                    I am use mac os.It works fine.But i think it would be great if the font could be bigger.
                                    In high resolution screen,the fonts of user interface will be too small to use.

                                      Probably I will make a "style" with bigger font or button to change font size... or something like this, but definitely only after holiday season... sometime! โ˜€
