I really miss the 'pop-up' context sensitive PE tools from Model side, I think going through the drop-down menus is slower, and would like to request a plugin/plugins/scripts that would implement this in Workspace.
As you know, in MS, all the tools for PE came up when you right clicked - I'm thinking that because of all the new tools and functions, that only the tools pertinent to whatever part you're working on (points, edges, faces) would come up (after right clicking on the model) when you selected that mode from the drop down menu. The icons could even be a bit smaller to save space, and/or could be customizable, (a 'box' that you could drag and drop whatever tools you want to come up after right clicking)
Is anything like this possible, and is there any interest in something like this?
I feel it would speed things up while modeling, and would like to say Roman's a genius for his original concept along these lines.
Thanks,

To clarify my previous post: I know you can already make custom menus, what I need is for a custom menu to 'pop-up' after selecting a PE mode, then right clicking on the model.
Thanks,

How about photo modeling where you enter a digital photo and the plugin makes a model? There is sample code here and documentation on how to make models from photos. Part of it is c code. Look around a lot on the web site until you find it.
Photos to 3d models http://make3d.stanford.edu/
Hope someone can make a plugin that will do this and make truespace mesh from the photos
Good luck. |

I couldn't agree with you more.
Removing the tools from the workspace and hiding them in the stack is awful.
Goes against the design philosophy that's been in place since at least Pioneer days.
And while I'm on my soapbox, can we please, please, please, bring back the ability to pin an expanded toolbar open? I know it's been requested before but the new 'flyout-and-fly-right-back-in' style toolbars drive me crazy. STOP HIDING MY TOOLS!
I mean, there's a corner of the toolbar that if you click it wrong it will delete the toolbar (AARRRGGHH!!!) but no function for pinning it open?
Which function do you suppose would be more often used?
<EDIT> Sorry, didn't realize what subforum I was in, thought it was the 'Feature Request' thread. Thanks for listening anyway. |
