Final trueSpace7.61 Beta 8 Std Unofficial Update

[clintonman]

The new point edit scale actions need a small change.

"Widgets/Edit/.../Boxes/Linear scale action, 1" - the "Snapping group" needs to be set to "Point edit snapping" so grid snapping works.

I am not seeing any difference with PE Snapping enabled with the Boxes
Can you provide a workflow?
Do you notice the different Precision values?

Turn on grid snapping.
Drag a box and it scales from the center with snapping.
Ctrl drag a box and it scales from the origin but does not snap.
Add the snapping group change
Ctrl drag a box and it scales from the origin and now snapping works.

Thanks, now I see it
Do you notice the different Precision values? (see previous pic)
Also why are Boxes set up with the Ctrl gesture for snapping when the Bars, Triangles, and Arcs are not?

Yep, they're different all right.

Ctrl is not for snapping. Ctrl is for scaling at the origin. No ctrl is for normal scaling about the center.

Here is an Unreal Grid
Can you do me a favor and record all of the recommended values in the Snapping Grid panel with the jScript Macro toolbar?

You're going to have to refresh my memory on this.

That's pretty old. I think it only applies to Unreal Engine before version 3. I'll double check though.

Edit: Yep, that is old and no longer valid for newer engine versions. Grid spacing is now based on decimal values instead of the binary inspired value of "16".
