Hello,
I have problem to use tape tool because it is too awfull.
Could it be possible to have just point helpers with center marker (not the cube and the arrow...) ???
Hi again, I was playing a little with extending Point helper and end with some working version that you may test ;)
plugin Helper TapeX
name:"TapeX" category:"Standard"
classID:#(0x1b2d8fc9, 0x12c01818)
extends:Point replaceUI:falseversion:1
(
local me, pt
parameters pblock rollout:params
(
length type:#float ui:spnLength default:0
on length get val do(if pt != undefined do
val = distance me pt
))
rollout params "Tape Parameters"(
spinner spnLength "Length" range:[0,1e9,0])
on attachedToNode obj do(
pt = Point name:(obj.name + ".Target")
obj.target = pt
me = obj
))-- NOTE: After moving the "header" point need to click once on it-- in the view port or on the spinner arrows to update the spinner.
Oh, yes, I forget some note... I need to write a mouse create tool for this plugin to can use the button from Create panel. Now you can create ane TapeX object using the constructor i.e. "TapeX()" (the same as creating box for exmple - "Box()"). So type in the Listener "TapeX()" just to test it, and if you like it, I'll try to add mouse create tool ;)
hello anubis,
In fact I'd like to change max's tape object (in a init file ?), or do another.
Your script let the pyramidal object...
I'd be great to have more elegant (graphical) objects in max.
Thanks for help. :-)
The alternative you're looking for is a new helper plugin, but if only this objects disturb then just hide it. Also to auto-hide the pyramidal object you can include isHidden property at creation time in the example script, i.e.:
