It just might. :) Given my recent problems, there have been times when I thought that it might be useful if I could have a rummage around in the LE to see if I could see what was going wrong, but had no LE button visible, so thanks for that.
D'oh! http://homepage.ntlworld.com/alien42/smilies/slap.gif I just realised that I could have switched the model window to 2D mode & done it that way. :o |

I can really use these. Thanks! :)
Um... while we're at it, is there a way that I can make an object in Player visible/not visible? I'm specifically trying to make the light objects not visible.
I can't find it in the tool thing on the right and I haven't seen anything in the object properties in the LE. |

Heidi: From the Link editor go inside (click on the orange triangle) the light you wish to hide, then check invisible within Object Render Attributes. |

If you want, you can have that setting avalable on the top level of the object: just go into it, r/c the property [invisible in this case], & select Export. Then, when you go back up a level the property is there. |

Thanks Alien. I got that to work. :)
You know when you click all the way out and there's the one for preferences. I guess I expected to find the display options for cameras and lights in there. Sort of, do ya want to see the lights or not, kind of thing.
For some reason if I have something that I want to work on in Player it comes in right on top of those infinite lights...lol. |

Or you could record a script that works on all Lights and Cameras.
// Select the Light or Camera first before running this script.
function Execute(params)
{
sel = Node.Selection();
for (i = 0; i < Node.SelectionLength(sel); i++)
{Node.Select(Node.SelectionGetAt(sel, i)); ApplyMacro(Node.SelectionGetAt(sel, i))};
}
function ApplyMacro(selectedObj_)
{
Node.Select(selectedObj_ + "/Object Render Attributes")
Node.Value(selectedObj_ + "/Object Render Attributes",
"Invisible") = -1
// Disconnect Object hider within Camera and or Projector light.
Node.Select(selectedObj_ + "/Object hider")
Node.Disconnect(selectedObj_ + "/Object hider", "Invisible", selectedObj_ + "/Object Render Attributes", "Invisible")

a few hotkeys that are not documented for edit boxes on nodes [at least I couldn't find them in the manual :D ]
ctrl c -> copy [everyone knows that one]
ctrl x -> cut
ctrl v -> paste
also while highlighted in blue you can left click and drag the contents of one editbox to another..didn't know that until just now..cool :rolleyes: |

Those 3 are almost universal, & work for about 99% of Windows progs.

Ooh, nice 1, I didn't know about that either. :cool: |

Or the devs could make that functions available to the average joe who doesn't want to click himself throuhg a jungle of nodes or write a script. It's still a 3D application after all. :( |
