      Hi all,

      Here is an update (major revision) of my projection toolbar.
      What's new:
      · More user-friendly commands: click points instead of selecting objects for plane definitions and vectors
      · Better selection errors checkings
      · Project faces along Z and along vector gathered in one command.
      · ExtrudelineTool included
      · lines2cyl and credits commands suppressed
      · Construction line at intersection of faces enhanced: multiple selection supported
      · New icons
      · PDF doc included

      Enjoy,


      Unzip in Plugins folder.
      Read the doc...

        Thank you Didier - your toolbar has been a great friend in the past - i'm looking forward to see the changes. 😄

        EDIT: had a look at the new script (though i still have to read the doc)

        one question - how feasible to add 'project lines' along red/green?

        i am thinking of using it to extrude lines and have them intersect faces - very useful/quick when working with cad files

          Hi cadFather,
          I'm afraid I don't understand 'project lines along red/green' ?
          Using "project lines along vector" would not do the trick ?
          Please explain it to my tired brain...

            for some reason i can't upload an image - the tool i have in mind is the project along z

            • i was thinking of a keyboard shortcut which quickly projects lines along one of the other axis. to be sure the vector one works so don't worry about it...take a good rest
              (if you can).. 😲

            Thanks

              hallo Didier,

              I installed the "projection toolbar", it works fine, BUT now the right mouse button doesn´t work how it should: when I activate an object and klick the right mouse button (to call the context-menu), the object is not active any longer.

              I use SU6free on MacOSX - I´ve tried it with a 3 button mouse and a Wacom tablett -> same problem

                didier,

                what can i say? u da man!!! one more fantastic script that will boost everyone's productivity.

                i tried all the tools and they worked perfectly on my mac running OS 10.4.11.

                regards and thank you once more.

                p.s.: would it be at all possible to control the distance between the two points needed to extrude lines along a vector via VCB?

                  You can make it work this way, or did I forget something ? 😲 😲
                  Click a first point somewhere, drag the mouse in the direction you want the vector to be, then enter a number in the VCB. 😄
                  PS: multiwalltool tuto not forgotten 😉

                    yes, it does work. i have probably done something wrong when i tried before.

                    thanks! i thought of that the other day but did not want to ask again since you have been giving us so much.

                    regards.

                      this has become one of my many favourite scripts, but i cant assign keyboard shortcuts to the individual commands, any way of fixing this?

                          Hmmm, check this out. if i select more than one line to project perp. to plane, only 1 projects???

                          try the file, select all the edges then the face obove it and try project perp. to plane.

                                    J'ai "fr_projection_extension" et "projection_extension". Donc je vire "projection_extension". C'est bien ça?

                                    EDIT : C'est fait mais j'ai perdu les 4 derniers icones de la barre qui n'étaient pas en double.

                                      great set of tools, thankyou.
                                      is there any chance to add a project along normal to the extrude lines tool? 💚
