@Clinton
Here is a WIP - Look At widget and toolbar button
Put the Look At(widget) in Widgets/Tools/
Use the toolbar button to call the Look At(widget)
Note: The current Look At status message will run after selecting the target, so that will need to be eliminated.

Let me know you have a better solution

A better solution for what? Tried it. Don't know what I'm supposed to be seeing.

You should see a Look At cursor for picking the object that you want to Look At

Can you add a Function for this button that checks if it is a *Prototype?
I just discovered that you could Remove any toolbar including a *Prototype

Not sure why you need RecentFiles to rename a toolbar, but I did see a problem with this!
1) User can clear Recent Files from the Desktop panel
2) Loading a recently saved toolbar from the File Menu does not seem like a very good idea
What happens if it does not exist?

Can you give steps for the error?

"Not sure why you need RecentFiles to rename a toolbar"
This was causing the safe rename to happen on the saved toolbar.

"1) User can clear Recent Files from the Desktop panel"
Doesn't cause any problems on it's own. Problem is when it's called from the save toolbar.

"2) Loading a recently saved toolbar from the File Menu does not seem like a very good idea

Most likely nothing would happen. Just tried it and yep, nothing happened.

I think the error caused the problem
I have seen it before a few times
Source object: /Scripts/CustomCommands/ToolbarManager/Open Toolbar Error: Unspecified script error Line: 66, Char: 1 Script text: util.SetNodeValueInt(tbNode, "IsAspectT", false);

Open Toolbar
Add:if con exist

Code: Select all

if(Node.ConExists(tbNode, "IsAspectT")) {
	util.SetNodeValueInt(tbNode, "IsAspectT", false);
}
This what you did in the Toolbar Manager Function Set

None of the built in toolbars has the Name field set, so can make it so the name has to be set before it can be removed.
