Final trueSpace7.61 Beta 8 Std Unofficial Update

[clintonman]

Static Sweep Plus command uses script buffer technique for a 1 step undo

The target weld reduces the number of undos by half, by using function set to hold data, update to use the newer status line and a small section uses the script buffer. It still eats undos but at a lower rate than before. about 18 undos before, down to around 6 or 7

Color Picker in the spotlight uses the plugin un-doable commands. It takes about 2 undos to set the color back. This was tricky because the bitmap control was adding an undo to the history. The key was to immediately undo inside the color code to clear out the mystery undo. I'm not 100% sure this works, but it's a big improvement , 2 undos vs something like 15 undos or a crazy number of undos if dragging in the control.

The Spot light Color Picker's Red, Green, Blue Enter button does not work
The Lum is being changed and makes the Color Picker not work right unless you change Lum to 1.000

Red, Green, Blue Enter fixed. This was an oopsy. I deactivated it while trying to figure it out and forgot to reactivate it.

Grid Array that does not need to clear undo history
Rearranged the UI a little bit, smaller, "Replace Array Element" button moved and has some separation
Opens in a floating window
Prevents choosing the array itself as the replacement element

Grid Array

Code: Select all

ERR   Source object: /Scripts/CustomCommands/gridArray2Script/doGrid Error: Microsoft JScript runtime error Description: 'util' is undefined Error code: 0x800a1391 - (null) Line: 154, Char: 1 Script text:  util.SetNodeValueMatrix(node, conn,     0x80020101

doGrid script
var util = System.CreateDO("Clintons3D Package/Utility functions");
Removing var stops the error

Yep, I see. I'll have to remember to exit out of truespace before running the final test.

Seems like you could use your plugin commands in more areas
Like opening the floating panel

Code: Select all

	util.SetNodeValueString(rpf, "RootNode", Space.CurrentScene());
	util.SetNodeValueString(rpf + "/Panel Node", "PanelEditorNode", thegrid2 + "/Grid Array Control");
	util.Copy(rpf, "/Project/Windows Manager Space");

There is other areas too but I am not sure if you want to or not

Seems to be working
Question?
You are using:
SetNodeValueMatrix(thegrid,"Matrix", workMatrix2);
in a few places

Shouldn't this be?
util.SetNodeValueMatrix(thegrid,"Matrix", workMatrix2);
