Thanks Michael and Brian. I got it to install and work.
From: BurrMan
The only thing you should watch out for with this type of "install", is Michael may make changes to something like "CommandBar.htm" and you are overwriting with something outdated...
You "Should" understand what is added in something like CommandBar.htm and just make that edit by hand, so you don't break your future installs.......
2 cents....

Thanks, I probably won't use it anyway. I really just wanted to see what the camera switch did.

Hello all,
It's been a while since I've visited the forum,
so I'm sorry if this has been covered before.
I couldn't find anything on it.
How does the snapshot option of the CustomUI work?
When I click on it, the screen blinks but doesn't put an image in the snapshot folder.
I have the snapshot folder located in MoI's main folder. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
I have a few other questions, but I thought I'd start out with this one 1st. :-)
Thanks,
Jesse

what os?
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Jesse, in recent versions of Windows, the operating system tries to prohibit programs from changing anything under c:\Program Files other than when it was installed, as a way to keep things from being messed with by viruses and things like that.
Since the CustomUI Snapshots directory is in there, that means that by default it won't be writable.
But if you give a program elevated privileges it will then allow it to write stuff there.
One way to give a program elevated privileges is to right-click it and choose "Run as administrator". If you do that, does the snapshot function start to work ok for you during that run? If so then you can set it to always run as administrator by right-clicking the shortcut, go to Properties, Compatibility tab and there's a checkbox at the bottom "Run this program as an administrator", if you set that the shortcut will always launch it with elevated privileges.
It would probably be better to have the snapshots folder located somewhere that was writable by default, like under %AppData%\Moi\snapshots, that way it would work without needing the program to have elevated privileges.

Hi Jesse,
I agree with Michael with keeping your data out of the Programs directory and putting it somewhere else you can do that following these instructions earlier on this thread
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.53
Did the same thing with the objects.
Cheers

Hi, is customUI now valid for moi3D ?
thakx
From: Max Smirnov (SMIRNOV)
Yes. CustomUI works great with MoI 3.0
From: Kroete (TAREK)
Hi Max, I just installed the CustomUI on my Mac and really like it. Great work! Thank you.
Please can you advice regarding the lightning button, it currenly says no Options Add on found. Where can I find that add on and where would I need to copy it?
Thank you

HI TAREK
I just had to figure this out again recently, when installing on my laptop.
Max and PILOU answered this question many posts back.
Dino's lightingoptions htm file needs to be copied to the Moi ui folder.
It is located at post 48 here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=5222.48
Part of the answer is post 82, here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.82
(Open Moi and visit Options/View/LightingOption. Just visit, no need to do anything.)

No, you have done nothing wrong - that is normal. The Objects tab is primarily meant to hold objects that you yourself create, there are a couple ones in there as demos but the specific demo ones have changed from time to time and the current one just does not happen to have the gear or bearing included as part of the demo objects.

Snapshot
-------------
Shift + click = resolution x 2
Ctrl + Shift + click = resolution x 3
Doesn't work with my Mac /OS.

Hi Jay, I'm not sure where the snapshot script is coming from, is it on the scripts menu that pops up?
Is it a custom script that you have added in yourself or something like that?
- Michael
From: Jay (JAYGEE)
No, I just installed Max' CustomUI.
As in the first Post described:
"Snapshot
-------------
With this addon you can make a snapshot of last clicked viewport.
Resolution is fixed: 1600x1200
Left click - grid is visible
Right click - grid is hidden
Shift + click = resolution x 2
Ctrl + Shift + click = resolution x 3
Snapshots will be saved to "snapshots" directory."
LeftClick and RightClick on the button work fine.
Combination with Shift or Ctrl+Shift works not and my Backgroundcolor stays white.
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Jay, I took a quick look and from what I can see the resolution is getting so high with the x2 and x3 options that the render mechanism would consume a quite large chunk of video memory in order to be able to function and that is failing for you.
What type of video card does your machine have, does it have a lot of video memory available on it?
It's also possible that the mechanism MoI uses for running on the Mac is not able to use the entire amount of your video memory and trying to use some unusually large giant block of it is failing.
When the render call fails, that probably generates a script exception and then the rest of the script that does the cleanup stuff for restoring background colors and such does not run, that's why your screen stays white.

I tried out all 4 snapshots with a curve and points.
The first two looked very good.
The last two were huge files, and were badly faded. The points are tiny, and almost invisible.
