Final trueSpace 7.61 Beta 8 Unofficial Update

[trueBlue]

@Clinton
The current UU8's ViewToolbar has 3 buttons that call xml.scripts from Scripts/Commands:
CameraFromViewButton

Code: Select all

Activity.Run("Scripts/Commands/Eye2Cam");Activity.Run("Scripts/CustomCommands/Popups/HideView")

Show EyeCamPanel

Code: Select all

Activity.Run("/Scripts/Commands/EyeCamPref");Activity.Run("Scripts/CustomCommands/Popups/HideView")

ObjToViewButton

Code: Select all

Activity.Run("Scripts/Commands/Position2Eye");Activity.Run("Scripts/CustomCommands/Popups/HideView")

As you know these scripts will be discontinued in UU9
So, what would you suggest being compatible with UU9 and your installer?
In UU9 there will be a UUCameraFunctionSet that includes functions for the above three

Code: Select all

var cmd = '';cmd += 'UUCFS = Node.AccessFnSet("Scripts/UUCommands/UUCameraFunctionSet");UUCFS.Eye2Cam();';RsApp.RunScriptBuffer(cmd)

var cmd = '';cmd += 'UUCFS = Node.AccessFnSet("Scripts/UUCommands/UUCameraFunctionSet");UUCFS.EyeCamPref();';RsApp.RunScriptBuffer(cmd)

var cmd = '';cmd += 'UUCFS = Node.AccessFnSet("Scripts/UUCommands/UUCameraFunctionSet");UUCFS.Position2Eye();';RsApp.RunScriptBuffer(cmd)

The current UU8's Quick ORA Scripts disconnects the Object hider:
util.DisconnectAll(Sel + "/Object hider");

Not a fan of disconnecting the Object hider
Is this necessary?

You have that backward. The installers would need to be updated for the UU9, not change the UU9 to be backwards compatible with external installers.

Here is a scene with the above items

Quoting myself:

...
Quick ORA Scripts in CustomCommands is used by the Popup View Toolbar. "Quick ORA Scripts" was a bad name, my bad. I think the popup buttons should use the new show and hide scripts instead.

So I say get rid of the Quick ORA Scripts and change the popup buttons to use the new show and hide scripts. Quick or not determined by the new options panel.

Okay, thanks!

Discovered the meaning and importance of using:

Code: Select all

	if(typeof(Clintons3dPlugin) == "undefined") {
		System.Alert("Clintons3dPlugin is Required!\n\nInstall and Load the Clintons3dPlugin.rsx in the Package Manager");
	return;
	}

when using scripts with your plugin!
Just unloading the Clintons3dPlugin.rsx can cause will havoc

Even opening FunctionSets will not pass the Syntax Check & Commit
This was a big eye opener for me!

I would like to add a Version check for the new Clintons3dRsView.rsx in the Clintons3dPlugins script
1638408 or higher
Can you take a look at it?

Looks like the only change from the earlier version was updated version number check for Clintons3dPlugin.

added version check for view plugin
rearranged code
renamed "PackageManager" function to "IsPackageManagerOpen"
gave magic value a meaningful variable name
added a comment to the code

Code: Select all

	//Note - replacing the current rsx will not update the version number found in the Plugins.xml file
	//				older versions must be removed from the package manager first

Thanks, I added an additional message

This is not working for me in Rosetta for some unknown reason
I have the init.js setup to call:
Activity.Run('Scripts/UUCommands/Clintons3dPlugin')

Did you load UUCommands before trying to call it?

[trueBlue]

Okay found out what the problem was
Your newest script's name was changed to Clintons3dPlugins
The previous name was Clintons3dPlugin (Without the s)
Edit: Looks like I changed the name at some point
