Polygon Counter About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. Polygon Counter // Feature suggestions 1  |   Order by default Post by Doc308 // Sep 2, 2008, 9:57am Doc308 Total Posts: 3 Unless I can't find it, (which wouldn't surprise me), a polygon counter would be really essential, especially for game models, when you need to know just how many poly's you have. Of course, if there is a way to figure this out, that is pre-exisiting, I'd sure like to know what it is. Thanks.

Would be good to see this count in workspace, to go along with the vertex count that is there already, agreed :) HTH! Tom Post by J90 // Sep 10, 2008, 9:30pm J90 Total Posts: 107 There is a script that you can drag into the link editor to show this. First Click on the library browser.(It is at the bottom right. It looks like a a magnifying glass over a folder. Then scroll down to the Objects-Script objects.(image thumbnail looks like a orange chair ) Then double click on it Scroll down to the second to last row. It is called "Object Information" Double click on that or drag it into the Link editor. Select the object you wish to see how many faces it has and look in the link editor for the info. It tells more info then the face and vertex count too :) Post by RichLevy // Sep 11, 2008, 9:27am RichLevy Total Posts: 1140 Nice find J90, that one goes in my toolbox :D Rich Post by robert // Sep 11, 2008, 9:31am robert Total Posts: 609 Nice find J90 A nice find it is indeed:) Post by Norm // Sep 12, 2008, 8:51am Norm Total Posts: 862 here is a later version. Nice interface and overcame one problem with that object info in script objects library; darn timer inside stays active. (you can export the "active" attribute on timer event to activate/deactivate from front end if you like). This version has "manual" or "auto". So it can be set into motion for single tick of clock when manual is used, or stay active if "auto" is clicked.

I downloaded the object and will take a look!

Norm the panel you have tends to be more problematic about those names changing. Still they are a great asset and I have them both up and running to see what they can do. Thanks! Rich
