67 votes

In case you run multiple backburner managers (e.g. on notebook at several places or using local manager and manager in office) it is good idea to have icons for automatic connecting monitor to the different manager hosts.

I've found two working command line parameters for monitor.exe:

monitor -a
monitor -mservername

First one turns "Auto connect" on. Second one sets manager hostname and connects to it. (Note: There is no space between -m and hostname or ip)

1 vote

In this tutorial I used a "Vertex Paint" modifier to paint on the surface and using the colors of the surface in a bitmap controller I modified a parameter of parametric array.
This approach works on 1D array while for 2D array you need to do some extra works to achieve the same effect.
