Workspace Dimensions

[clintonman]

Here's a copy of the changes including all the changes you made.

remove button highlight from all 6 GetDimPoints nodes
remove status message checkbox from 3 nodes inside GetDimPoints
de-export the DimLinear, DimAngle and DimText ORA exported panel
remove all connectors except Matrix conns from DimLinear, DimAngle and DimText - DimText kept Material List conn, hard to see color on selected item in the 3d view
utility toggletextgraphic - choose first text explicitly if not a valid dimension
note line 344 added (...) before || to fix the logic for the case where there is no valid dimension to default toggle to

Code: Select all

	//select first
	if(firstSel == (scene && Node.Exists(sceneMeasureGroup)) || Node.Exists(objectMeasureGroup)) {

added text orient setting/control - Lying, Standing
creating a new dimension in view mode will always have Lying orientation

Generally, if your view point is high, use the Lying orientation and if it is lower use the Standing orientation

Thanks!
Not sure if this was present in the previous version
Notice a double line in an Angel
Angle.png
.
Also, a ghost widget appears when creating Angles

Also, notice a Parenting status message now that you removed the "status message checkbox from 3 nodes inside GetDimPoints"

Do you mean the angle arms when you say double lines?

I don't see any ghost widget when creating angles. Can you show a screenshot?

I loaded the old version with status checkboxes and the parenting message still shows. Maybe you just didn't notice it before.

You can see the double lines in the Angle pic
Two lines from the top left to bottom right
Yesterday, I was testing, setting the Cone's Matrix to see if I could get a normal location, rotation, and scale
It was hard to tell if the results made any difference

The ghost widget happens to fast to get a screenshot

I don't see it in the picture, don't see it here either. Can't fix if can't see it.

Never mind, I point edited the angle to confirm it is a single line

OK
A trick you ca do is press the Edit Graphic button and ctrl-rmb scale to lengthen and shorten the arms of the angle.

Edit Graphic & Toggle Text | Graphic give errors when used when nothing is selected

Edit Graphic & Toggle Text | Graphic give errors when used when nothing is selected

Probably a lot more than just that will give errors if nothing is selected

Edit:
edit graphic, all the set buttons,most of the select buttons, set units also same problem/error

[clintonman]

Added a check for nothing selected.

Were all of the changes done in the Utility Function Set?

I went through the Utility Function Set and added a check for nothing selected in most if not all of the functions
Also noticed that a lot of the items did not have a var
As an example:

Code: Select all

	var scene = Space.CurrentScene();
	var firstSel = Node.FirstSelected();

	if(!firstSel) return

	var firstSelSN = Node.ShortName(firstSel);
	var firstSelOwner = Node.Owner(firstSel);
	var firstSelOOwner = Node.Owner(firstSelOwner);

There may have been one other place, but I forget.
