Hi Matadem,

Use Browser > Types > Curves > Open to select all open curves.



Re:

Copying and pasting between a first instance of MoI and a second instance just works for me. Are you not able to copy between different open windows?

Hi Matadem, also for finding where the opening is located on an open curve there is a plugin here that can be helpful:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=2888.11

That marks the start point of an open curve with a point object.

And yes for transferring between 2 open windows use copy / paste (ctrl+c/ctrl+v).

Maybe I am missing something
If I have 2 Moi3d open and I copy an item with ctr+c it ask me for pick base.

then if I go to the other Moi3d and do ctr+v nothing happens.

I checked the shortcuts and they are set for copy and paste.

Hi Matadem,

Sounds like you have the Transform > Copy command set on Ctrl+C .

Set the shortcut's command to CopyClipboard instead.

Or you can also use the Copy button inside the Edit palette on the side pane.

Thank you!

That script saved me allot of time.
The copy works well now to.
