Scene View 2
The Scene view has some issues. If you open model space python editor all of trueSpace slows down when the Scene View window is open. This happens on win10 machines. I plan to test on a winXP machine to see if the problem was always there or if it came from windows updates over the years.
Right now it has the same functionality as the original scene view, including the right click context menu with browse and delete options. It has the added ability to sort the view alphabetically and it can start the tree from the "Kernel root" or the current scene level. I might add some more options to the context menu before it's done. The scene/root dropdown will be a checkbox option.
Now for the oddities. It won't select with a single click, double click is needed. Weird, but still better than tS slowing down and becoming unstable. It's ugly, and I might not be able to give it a decent look to match the rest of the tS interface.

Re: Scene View 2
It's starting to come together.
Normal LMB select is working.
It can expand to the selected node using the "Expand To" button.
The extra items for the context menu are in place.
TODOs:
try to make the selected item highlight in the list
size the view to the window interactively (must do), already sizes horizontally, need it in vertical as well
try to maintain the scroll position when updating the scene - it scrolls to the top now
maybe add icons for the different item types
write the script functions for the context menu (must do)
expand to function needs to scroll to the selected item after expanding
I tested the trueSpace Scene view on winXP and it didn't have the slowdown problem. I also retested on win10 and the slowdown was almost imperceptible. Both tests where using unmodified stock tS, so there is something in the unofficial updates causing the slowdown. It's going to take a lot of testing to find the cause. In the short run this new custom Scene view will be the fix.

Re: Scene View 2
Bigger font and the icons are all done. All are shown above except for the joints, bones, ik handles and ik locks.
Final task is to write some scripts and make sure the 3 parts of the plugin don't interfere with each other. The 3 parts are the Scene View 2, Webserver and an old part for a Node List View.

Re: Scene View 2
Added "Enable Statistics" checkbox to each of the 3 windows, Scene View 2, Web Server and Node View. When enabled the Object Statistics node values will update on selection and point edit changes. All 3 windows can be open with the stats enabled, but it's probably better to only enable one of them.
Additionally fixed the face counts and edge counts for the Object Statistics. The only count that is not good is point edit edge selection count.
This project is almost done. Just have to write some scripts and make a new installer.

Re: Scene View 2
I am using a LOT a plugin called SceneExplorer. It is fast, pretty, with handy options, and it works in Modeler !!!
I don't remember who made it. Any idea someone ? Was it Thomas (DesignDevil), Riccardo Scanu, someone else ? Ahhh, memory is failing.
The only feature I miss is the ability to select several objects at one, using CTRL and/or MAJ keys.
Too bad this pluging is abandoned.
Do you plan to add that option in your scene view tool Clinton ?

I would love to have multiple selections. That was the original plan along with some drag and drop options. I'm not able to use the tree control in the way it was meant to be used. The tree works through messages and notifications. Mostly through notifications and that's the part that would make it possible and is the part I don't have access to.

Re: Scene View 2
Spent some time fixing some bugs in the code and added a few things along the way.
Renames "Enable Statistics" to "Object Mesh Stats"
Added a new checkbox "Object Matrix Stats" which is used to drive the matrix aspect of the Object Statistics. Before this was driven by a modified version of the autokey script.
Added checkboxes and a separate context menu to use them.
I don't see anymore bugs or issues with the c++ plugin code.
TODO: write script code for the new context menu, which will be easy compared to the plugin code.

Re: Scene View 2
All the scripts are written and tested. One of the problems I ran into during testing is that some commands cause the entire tree to rebuild. This can be time consuming so I spent some time optimizing the code to only update the tree portion that changed. Some of the paste and duplicate commands are causing the full tree rebuild so need one more time around with the c code to fix that.
Some tree rebuilds are unavoidable. I found that assigning a material will cause the whole tree to rebuild. The "Active" checkbox is used in that case. It will stop the tree from updating when unchecked. A new status message will display when the tree is rebuilt to show tS isn't frozen.
Also found that some things will not update the tree no matter what, so added the "Update Tree" context menu option to rebuild the portion of the tree clicked on.

Re: Scene View 2
I got the excess tree rebuilds fixed except for the Ungroup3D function still causes it.
Added a Rename option to the context menu
Added a Cut option to the context menus - I had copy,paste and duplicate, but still somehow forgot the cut
Changed the wording of "Paste" to "Paste Into"
All c++ coding is complete, at least I hope it is...
TODO:
write 2 "cut" scripts
try fix the ungroup3d to not cause extra full tree builds
update the object statistics script to be compatible with the new c++ code

Re: Scene View 2
Finally, a preview installation is available for testing. Everything works it's just not thoroughly tested.
It only has install instructions for the UU9 version of trueSpace.
http://clintons3d.com/plugins/truespace ... view2.html
One little note I just discovered, when switching to model space the tree may need to be rebuilt because model may change the names of some items.
This whole project was meant as a temporary replacement for the built in tS Scene view window, but the scene view 2 has too many limitations to be a full replacement for it. It can do a lot of things the original scene view cannot, so it was still a worth while project.

Re: Scene View 2
Looking great!
On your website:
Looks like the above instructions are for the Web version Scene View 2
The Expand To button is not working for me
I have seen it (once) push in when I click on it but mostly it does not push in when I press it
I had a Camera selected, pressed the Expand To button and the Scene gets selected
Pressing the + buttons do expand, so I not understanding what the Expand To button is for when and if it works
The path for the icons seems limited in that you would have to create that directory (\tS\Scripts\UI\images\) in the Standalone version
Couldn't the icons reside in the web folder?
The Delete functions using the tS Delete command does not seem like a very good idea in that a user could Delete important tS Nodes
I do not see any slowdown in the Workspace when using Model's Script Manager and your new Scene View 2
Did not trying running any py scripts yet
On your website:
Your Scene View 2 toolbar button opens this new Scene View 2 fine without the Webserver runningUsage:
Click the toolbar button, www, to start the server and open the options panel.
Select Scene View 2 radio button

Expand To - wont do anything at the scene level since it's already open to it. Go deeper like inside the camera then press Expand To. Not a great example since it would only go down 1 level which the + button already does. Good if you're deep in a hierarchy then the Expand To will take you to the selected node level.
Updated the text, changed "tS install folder '.....\tS\Scripts\UI\images\'" to "tS main folder '.....\Scripts\UI\images\'"
I'm sure some options can be added as rmb panel for protections etc. The scene view opens into the scene by default, so a casual user would have to go out of there way to activate the root level and then start messing around outside of the scene. I would think someone messing around in the root would have the good sense to know what can and can't be deleted. Then again people are capable of anything. It can also be setup to run the UU version of commands.

The only thing the tS Scene View can do is Browse in the LE and Delete scene items
Your Scene View does the above without any limitations and more!
The only thing I would caution would be the Delete functions that can Delete non scene items

If a scene has a large number of items the scene view 2 will slow down. You can see some of the slowdown by opening the _Root level and then apply a material to something in the scene. This slowdown will also happen in some other cases.
Second reason is the tree does not update with all scene changes and it has to be manually updated.

Re: Scene View 2
I have not seen these errors
I just manually ran both of these scripts and no errors
Instructions on your website:
Copy the 2 rsx files into the tS install folder - and change the file extension from 'rsx' to 'dll'
Maybe Saul put the plugin(s) in the tS folder?
Should be in the main folder"
Examples:
C:\trueSpace761
C:\trueSpace761Std

Yes, I had to zip the bmp
I would like to use:

in your Clintons3dView Function Set for the UU9
Not sure where and where not to put it as there a lot of Node.Delete commands
These are the changes you would make for UUFS.Delete()
change openSceneView2, add the if statement before the return:change Clintons3dView Function Set, top section, add var UUFS:Code: Select all

Re: Scene View 2
Thats bizarre!
It works now, but why the change to opening Scene View 2 corrects it is really bizarre!
Just noticed that when using Browse in LE makes the Orange Triangle not work
I selected the Material Editor, right click Browse in the LE
It navigates to inside the Material Editor

Re: Scene View 2
Maybe we're talking about 2 different things.
For me this is an odd statement.
"I selected the Material Editor, right click Browse in the LE

because that is exactly what happens when I use the built in scene view browse in le. What happens when you use it? Does it not go inside?

Object Matrix Stats does not update the Object Statistics - pivot matrix aspect, it updates the Info aspect
http://clintons3d.com/plugins/truespace ... stics.html
not clearly written but
"choose the pivot mat tab to display the matrix aspect
the matrices require the Update button to refresh the information"

Ended up doing this:
The openNodeGraphView script still needs Space.Unselect() at the beginning of the script
After the open scripts run they run the Unselect script

Re: Scene View 2
The openNodeGraphView will populate as soon as you make a selection. This one is more random in whether it populates or not. but it's better to just select something than remove a selection without permission.
Here is a modified openSceneView2 that does not remove the users selection. It works the same as before by selecting a scene item and opening the scene view, the new last step is removing the selection, then any mouse movement in the 3D view fills the tree.

Most of the time it works, so only way to fix it would be to come up with a set of steps that makes it fail consistently.

no other changes, only the plugin changed.

Re: Scene View 2
If Scene View 2 and Scene Graph Utilities windows are both open at the same time, Scene Graph Utilities flickers when moving your mouse, IF NOTHING IS SELECTED
Same for the Scene View 2 window

Re: Scene View 2
Don't know why you'd want to do that but when I open a scene view the node short name is "Clintons3d SceneView Node" not "SceneView Node"trueBlue wrote: 24 Dec 2023, 00:29 Trying to stop opening duplicate Scene View2 windows

You can also check the Def1D of the frame window, currentWindow, for the id it uses to create the window, "{E9C4FE3C-C3C9-4dfd-8C85-E7F0F81029B4}"
One more thing if you dock the window it won't find it directly inside "Project/Windows Manager Space"
Cross post, you must have been reading my mind when I said , "Don't know why you'd want to do that..."

Re: Scene View 2
Always have something selected so it does not flicker?
My thought is, Scene View 2 seems to be far superior to Scene Graph Utilities, so why have Scene Graph Utilities?

I think you have Scene Graph Utilities setup on the rmb, so just remove the rmb command from the toolbar button.

Re: Scene View 2
I mean no disrespect!
I can have one open at a time and there does not seem to be any issues
Just need to figure out how not to open in duplicate and one at a time

Re: Scene View 2
No disrespect taken. I haven't even used the Scene Graph Utilities in a long time. I don't really know how useful it really is. The Scene View 2 is superior in my opinion as well. All I'm saying is if you want to get rid of it, go ahead and do it. Not expressing hurt feelings here. You asked why have it and I told you it would be easy to remove it.trueBlue wrote: 24 Dec 2023, 01:45 I mean no disrespect!

Re: Scene View 2
Okay will do
Would like your help stopping Scene View 2 from opening infinite instances though
Fixed my mistake with the previous script, but still no go
Crashes tS too!

Re: Scene View 2
I came up with the following:

if(subObjCount > 0) {
for(var i=subObjCount-1; i>=0; i--) {
util.Delete(store + "/"+ Node.SubObject(store,i));
}
}
Frame = WindowsManager.GetWindowsManagerNodeName();
if(Node.Exists('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneGraphFrame')) {
WindowsManager.CloseWindow('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneGraphFrame')
}
if(Node.Exists('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneViewFrame')) {
WindowsManager.CloseWindow('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneViewFrame')

}
util.Rename(Frame + '/' + Node.SubObject(Frame, Node.SubObjectCount(Frame) - 1), 'SceneViewFrame')
WindowsManager.SetFrameOwnerFrame(Frame + '/SceneViewFrame', WindowsManager.GetWorkWindow())

Frame = WindowsManager.GetWindowsManagerNodeName();
if(Node.Exists('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneViewFrame')) {
WindowsManager.CloseWindow('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneViewFrame')
}
if(Node.Exists('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneGraphFrame')) {
WindowsManager.CloseWindow('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneGraphFrame')
}
//will start empty if nothing is selected
Space.Select(Space.CurrentScene() + "/" + Node.SubObject(Space.CurrentScene(), 0))
//SubObject 0 may be Vray and is not a good choice, so try a Cmaera
if(Node.Exists(Space.CurrentScene() + "/Camera")) {
Space.Select(Space.CurrentScene() + "/Camera")
}
//Open Scene Graph Utilities
if(!Node.Exists('/Project/Windows Manager Space/SceneGraphFrame')) {
WindowsManager.CreateWindowFromCLSID('{DD2E0D6B-ED84-4b80-A624-757525B8A591}', '', '', '', 1)

Re: Scene View 2
Update Feb 8 2024
fixed unofficial update delete not working
adds fewer entries to the command history
differences from current UU version:
prevents opening more than 1 scene view, but does not close and reopen the scene view, same for the node graph view
allows 1 each of scene view and node graph view, uu allows one or the other
does not use the SetFrameOwnerFrame command since it made the window undockable, window did not behave like other tS window frames
searches the entire windows manager space to see if the window is open, not just the top level
openSceneView2
openNodeGraphView

Re: Scene View 2
I updated your scripts, but having both open has issues!
The last opened and or one or the other Scene View flickers when your mouse is over the 3D View
Sometimes nether flickers, so it is intermittent
Edit: Just read previous post
Looks like it happens when nothing is selected
Further review, the Scene Graph Utilities seems to be the most prone with the flickering issue

Previous fix did not work after restarting tS, so new fix released.
openSceneView2 and openNodeGraphView can have the top lines removed.
changes to Clintons3dView Function Set
comment out the top line
and replace UUFS in the 2 delete functions
