@Clinton
The DeSelectNURBS script is not working for the Paint Face buttons command
Good news is, it stops the NURBS from entering into PE Mode
Bad news is, materials can be applied to the LODMesh
If you run Remove Orphaned Materials from the Material Editor/Convert D3D Materials, ALL of the Materials are removed

Also, I do not see how you would be able to avoid materials being applied to the wrong parts of the NURBS

Working on the docs and looking at the synchronize panel. I don't see an option to turn off the sound effects. Specifically for the save settings button.

Insert Scene Name LMB
Reset Scene Name RMB
Scene name entry field
Enter button

What does it mean to insert the scene name? Does it take the existing scene name and set the text field to the same value?
Looks like reset sets the name to "Space 3D"
Enter actually renames the scene to the text input value.

OK I think I got that figured out. Now what does the Display Toolbars button do? I press it and the toolbars all seem to just flash and the checkbox next to it does not seem to do anything.

How does the save object menu item work?

I got the big icon to open the Bitmaps-Base library after setting the file string. I tried dragging onto the button but it still looks the same.

Usage ( my guess ):
1. select the file via the "..." button
2. optional set the author name
3. option set the description
4. optional click the chair icon to open the bitmaps library then somehow assign the bitmap - must be done after the file name selection
5. save

"Optimize - Removes Vray and Model attributes"

There is a Remove Vray checkbox and a Remove button and the Save button has a Save As - Recording.
So is this the same as the save as recording menu option, but with the option to remove vray via a checkbox and the remove button maybe removes the "Model attributes"?

trueBlue · Post by **trueBlue** » 28 Jan 2021, 22:34

Use the File dialog button to enter the location where you want to save the selected object
Author & Description is optional
Press the Save button
I'll change the Bitmap control to a Clickable Bitmap Control with no script, eliminating opening the Bitmaps Base library

Yep, same as Save As Recording
Removing the Vray & Model Attributes is optional

clintonman · Post by **clintonman** » 28 Jan 2021, 23:30

OK.
I wonder if the bitmap control should be smaller. It's so big and bright that it looks like the most important control in the panel.

Attached is an update for the Save As Optimized file menu option.

This one node will work with both Rosetta/Std and full versions of trueSpace by using the following check.

Code: Select all

if(typeof(tSBridge) == "undefined") return;

Uses the plugin based Save As dialog
Updates the thumbnail in the file on first and all subsequent saves.
Uses the active 3D window for the file thumbnail. If the active window is not 3D it looks for the first 3D window and uses it for the thumbnail. No longer tied to any specific layouts.
Uses a new technique to wait for the initial file to finish writing before updating the file thumbnail.

trueBlue · Post by **trueBlue** » 29 Jan 2021, 23:12

Brilliant!

One thing I noticed in Rosetta with the Remove Model script
I had to move this block of code down so that the Layers Info nodes could be removed and the Status Message ran

Code: Select all

	if(typeof(tSBridge) == "undefined") return;
	tSBridge.FlushSyncEvents()
	tSBridge.AttrClean(Space.CurrentScene())

Changed the messaging

Code: Select all

	var DeleteList = "";

	if(Node.Exists(Space.CurrentScene() + "/Layers Info")) {
		Node.Delete(Space.CurrentScene() + "/Layers Info")
		DeleteList = DeleteList + "Layers Info"
	}

	if(DeleteList == "") {
		//System.Alert("Nothing deleted");
		Node.Value("/Status Message", "Seconds") = 5000 
		Node.Value("/Status Message", "Message") = " No Model or Bridge attributes found... Save As a Recording";
		Activity.Run("/Status Message/Status Message");
		return;
	}

	if(typeof(tSBridge) == "undefined") return;
	tSBridge.FlushSyncEvents()
	tSBridge.AttrClean(Space.CurrentScene()) // Removes tSObj

	DeleteList = "Removed: " + DeleteList;
	//System.Alert(DeleteList)

	Node.Value("/Status Message", "Seconds") = 5000 
	Node.Value("/Status Message", "Message") = DeleteList + "... Save As a Recording";
	Activity.Run("/Status Message/Status Message");

On further testing, moving the block of code down and testing in tS761 full version, it is not working
Wonder if the bridge commands should be put into a Try&Catch?
Or just have two versions, one for Rosetta without

Code: Select all

	if(typeof(tSBridge) == "undefined") return;
	tSBridge.FlushSyncEvents()
	tSBridge.AttrClean(Space.CurrentScene())

What do you think is best?

Also noticed that you can remove the tSObj
Node.ConRemove(Node.FirstSelected(), "tSObj")
If you went this way it would remove the Bridge attributes (tSObj) in Rosetta too

I don't understand where you're going with this.
The original Rosetta version did not have the Remove Model node at all.
My tests show the undefined test is working in both versions of tS. It runs the Remove Model on full version and stops the run on Rosetta.

Then you moved the check that prevents it from running down so a Layers info would be removed. It never did that before because Remove Model node never existed in Rosetta. Does Rosetta have a layers Info that needs removing? Was this working before you made the modifications or did it never work?

trueBlue · Post by **trueBlue** » 31 Jan 2021, 01:58

Since I discovered that you can remove the tSObj attributes without using the bridge commands, I thought that this would be the best for both versions.
Even though Rosetta does not create the Model attributes, it would still be nice to be able to remove them.
You can Load RsObj asnd RsScn files into Rosetta from the full version.
On another note, there is also the( Supposedly? In my testing, I do not see it) issue that the Bridge needs to be restarted and or Sync from Model after using those bridge commands.
I used your modified Select All & Delete scripts to remove the LE2Data, LE2Data, 1 - 20 and the tSObj attributes as a test.

Testing trumps the documentation. If your testing shows one thing and the manual says another go with your test results.
Sounds good except won't the nodes move around if you remove the LE2Data connectors?

Left COG small, Right COG big

The physics constraint helpers, the COG cube and the fixation point spheres, are too small to see behind the object nav widget.
Also even if bigger they can be difficult to see behind the colorful version of the object nav widget. Maybe you can change it so they are solid instead of transparent.

I changed their opacity to 100%
Did I change their size?
They are similar in size to tS761's Fixation Points
Cube is 0.125 x 0.125 x 0.125
What should their size be?

They do look like the same size as the COG and Fixation Points, which is much smaller than the nav widget that covers them up.
Maybe about size of 0.5, something big enough so you can see them behind the widget.

Whats the difference between the blue guy with the red arrow and the blue guy without the red arrow?

trueBlue · Post by **trueBlue** » 01 Feb 2021, 20:36

The trueBlue guy with the red arrow is different from the default trueSpace7.61 First Person Navigation tool.
The icon Open/Loads the First Person Navigator into the scene if it does not exist by the same name
I have encapsulated an EyeCamera, FP properties, Trigger, and made an UI for it.

Benefits:
1.) You can set your FP properties separate from the Global Fp properties that are shared with everyone in Shared Space.
2.) Your FP properties can be saved as defaults.
3.) The trigger could be set up to use the Use Key. For instance you could make a FPN crouch key command.

Adding a unique name to the Actor attribute will keep your settings seperate from other users.

In truePlay2 open the Stack to set your First Person Navigator preferences.

You can use your keyboard keys to control Gravity & FOV

: Keys.png (5.47 KiB) Viewed 2716 times

Blue guy without the red arrow is trueSpace7.61 First Person Navigation tool

With the First Person Navigator, you must first be viewing from it's Camera, before invoking First Person Navigation tool
Other wise you will be viewing from the trueSpace7.61 First Person Navigation tool
Jump does not work like the First Person Navigation tool because it is not using the Default Gravity setting = 9.810
If you disable the Keys it acts like a normal FPN

Thanks!
Transferring the selected Camera's values to the Eye/Cam, to anything other than the Perspective view would be very difficult!!!
So I am going with this, unless you have a better solution

Code: Select all

if(Node.SubObjectCount("/D3DView")==0) return;
Eye = Node.SubObject("/D3DView", 0);
Cam = Node.Selection();

if(!Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye, "CameraType") == 0) {
System.Alert("Switch to Perspetive view first")
}

if(Node.ConExists(Node.Selection(), "Camera") && Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye, "CameraType") == 0) //Perspective
{
Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye,"tx") = Space.NodeMatrixElement(Cam,'tx');
Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye,"ty") = Space.NodeMatrixElement(Cam,'ty');
Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye,"tz") = Space.NodeMatrixElement(Cam,'tz');
Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye,"roll") = Space.NodeMatrixElement(Cam,'roll');
Node.Value("/D3DView/" + Eye,"pitch") = Space.NodeMatrixElement(Cam,'pitch');

I'd like to change the math used in the "Zoom 2 Selection" script inside /Widgets/Tools/Background/Look at selection/
The new math gives a more consistent zoom. Image above shows flat plane fits better and the cube fits in a little closer.

at line 144

Code: Select all

//size = Math.max(dx, dy, dz);
size = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy + dz*dz);

at line 194

//ddist = size / (2 * Math.tan(fov/4));
ddist = size / (2 * Math.tan(fov/2));

Nice math

Wondering if you should add
RsApp.ClearHistory()
to the end of the Look at Selection2 Command

Edit: Zooming to a single vertex selection is not good!
Wonder if you could do:
if vertcnt == 1 "Do old math"
else "Do new math"
Same for the FOV

Oops.

around line 62 do this to fix it. Makes it like to old code which did not zoom for single point.

Code: Select all

//if(vertcnt >= 2)
if(vertcnt < 2) {
	xmin = 0; 
	xmax = 0;
 	ymin = 0; 
	ymax = 0;
	zmin = 0;
	zmax = 0;
} else

I don't think erasing the undo is good for this since you just need to undo a few times to get back where you were. Would be bad to have a complex edit then zoom in for a closer look, see your mistake and then not be able to undo it. I would say that's true for anything that just changes the view.

I'm hoping you might find this useful. It's a plugin based status line that doesn't have any effect on the undo history.
There is the new rsx v1638427 and a modified Status Message node.

Sounds good!
First of all, I have a few leading questions...
Is there a problem with the current one?
What does util.SetStatusMessage("Some message here", 5000); do in your code?
What does util.ClearStatusMessage(clearModelStatus); do in your code?
How is this different from clearing the history using RsApp.ClearHistory()
Have you tested this running the Reset to Default Context in UU7?
If so, did you change the C3DReset.RsObj?

It doesn't destroy the undo history. Which is the whole point. You can actually undo things after writing a status message.

Clears the status with the option to clear the Model status. I don't know why the Model status would need to be cleared. Put that in to match your existing code.

I put that in as a backup because several scripts did not clear the status message

I have not tested it out yet

You have disconnected the Clear Status from the Default's Period Out, so pretty sure that would break previous scripts that use it
This issue is not just about Status Messages
It was very time consuming going through all of the scripts, CAREFULLY adding RsApp.ClearHistory() in places that did not affect transformations and or other things, so that a user could undo that if wanted. But necessary in areas within the scripts that changed Node.Value(s) and other Node commands. If a user pressed UnDo with some of these changes, it caused problems within the script itself and other areas as well.
For instance, the UnLookAt script got really messed up if you used UnDo a few times!
Could be a figment of my imagination, but it seems that these modifications make the scripts run faster and more efficient!

I am curious about your plugin code and whatever you are doing. Could the same thing be done from script without the plugin?

There's plenty of places were it's better to clear the undo history than not. But if something can be undone that shouldn't be taken away.
The plugin code is almost a direct translation of your status message scripts.
Scripts add to the undo. I did it in plugin to avoid losing undos via the clear history which happens at every status message display that uses your script code.

How do you use this sample when you have to exit FPN to run it?

If you want to try it, add a Timer to the script
Run FPN
If you add the Mouse Listener which is not needed, you will see that all of the values will update when the Timer is running with or without the Mouse Button script
Also, when in FPN mode, none of the Workspace's shortcuts run, so you can have any variety of Keyboard and Mouse shortcuts you want without conflict
Warning! Running the Mouse Button script while not in FPN mode can cause conflicts! Like the Background widget's MB click on a selected object.

	if(typeof(Clintons3dPlugin) == "undefined") {

	return;
	}
	var util = System.CreateDO("Clintons3D Package/Utility functions");
	util.SetStatusMessage(Status_Message, Period);

And for the Clear Status Line script

Code: Select all

	if(typeof(Clintons3dPlugin) == "undefined") {
	System.Alert("Clintons3dPlugin is not Installed or Loaded");
	return;
	}
	var util = System.CreateDO("Clintons3D Package/Utility functions");
	var clearModelStatus = false;
	util.ClearStatusMessage(clearModelStatus)

Far transparency value from 0.35 left and 0.85 right

The centered widgets triangles can be a little hard to see. I plan to change the Highlighter nodes Far transparency value from 0.35 to 0.85.

Do I have the triangles right?
Seems pretty bright

Yep, that's it. Paint the box a lighter color and you'll see why it's needed.
