Thanks a lot Max !
Just a little thing :
I have this error when i want to try Sudiv in the customUI2

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: _Subdiv_beta10

line 1

Thanks again...

edit :
i've replace _Subdiv_beta10 by _Subdiv_beta9 in 88 SubdivTools file and it's OK now.

'CustomUI would stay active between different releases'

That would be great! Thanks Michael.

Thanks Max for the CustomUI update.

Nodeedit is disabled in the new custom UI. (?)
Move nodeeditor directory to AppData/.../moi, beside customui directory, then doubleclick on customui and remove dash in front of -97NodeEdit.htm. (?)

Hi Michael

>>I've been thinking that for the next beta how about if I have MoI look through some specific directory in AppData for any .js files and if any are found it will execute them.
It's a good idea. I thought about one file (something like autorun.js), but if you make a separate directory it will be much better. In this case the execution list should be sorted by name, so we can manage the order of execution.

>>I'll also put in an empty named container element in CommandBar.htm by default that can be used as a target for where to insert controls.
You can give a name to <flex> container.

>>A couple of issues are - what should the directory containing scripts to execute at startup be called, maybe just plain "startup" ?
Yes. Startup is a good name.

>>I guess there should also be a "commands" and "scripts" directory that you could make there as well. But then will having MoI look in 2 different commands directories for things cause problems since currently there's only one that is identified by moi.filesystem.getCommandsDir()?
In my opinion the moi.filesystem.getCommandsDir() command should point to commands directory with MoI's built-in scripts.
For a user commands directory you can add another command. something like moi.filesystem.getUserCommandsDir()
But do we need it? I think moi.filesystem.getAppDataDir()+"commands\\" will be enough.

>>And what should happen if there is a file with the same name in both places, which one should be actually loaded?
I think the current commands directory with MoI's built-in scripts should have higher priority.

>>Also when should startup scripts run - probably just before the main window is shown?
Yes.
I don't remember, does MoI have a command which refreshes MoI UI? It can be useful in some cases.

Yes, _Subdiv_beta10 is not released yet ;) It's an experimental version.

It disabled by default.

You're right, now Nodeeditor can be stored in AppData directory

It should work right now, but you need to edit icon paths.
I'll add support of portable version later.

Thanks a lot max for your good job!

Hi Max, so I'll set that up for the next beta.

re:

There isn't a special MoI call for it but I think the built in HTML window.document.reload( true ); should work.

You can get all the things to reload by calling var panels = moi.ui.getUIPanels();

Or if there is a particular one you want var panel = moi.ui.getUIPanel( url );

You're welcome Max.

Thanks Max.....awesome!

Hi Max,

I have installed all and everything is working perfectly, except for one thing..... I have copied the contents only of the object folder and pasted it into the new objects folder.....all is showing and present except the objects are not in sequential order, or infact any order that I can tell. Please see screenshot attached. Have you any idea how I can force them to be read in a sequential and Alphabetical order?

Thank you

James Elliott

Hi James,

replace customui/mods/ObjLibrary.menu.htm file with this one

---

Hi Max,

Thank you, works a treat!

James

<< sequential and Alphabetical order?

What is a sequential order ? by date ? by size ?...

---

Max, many thanks for CustomUI v2.

I'm after some help setting up the ExtScripts directory on OSX with MoI v4 beta Dec-12-2017 please. I'm probably just missing something quite obvious.

In the ExtScripts.cfg.htm file, at the following location on OSX:
/Users/xxxx/Library/Application Support/Moi/customui/mods/ExtScripts.cfg.htm

I wrote:



I tried with and without the tilda and changing forward to back slashes - still nothing.

I can only access the scripts in MoI v4, if I actually copy them to the MoI commands directory - i.e. this one:
/Applications/MoI v4 beta Dec-12-2017.app/Contents/Resources/commands



Any suggestions much appreciated, thanks :)

Hi hairykiwi,

at the moment MoI (and CustomUI) doesn't support an external script directory. To make ExtScripts work you need to remove ExtScripts.cfg.htm file.

---

Hi Max,

Many thanks for your reply - that's great to know, but also adds to my confusion.

Are you saying it *did* work (under v3?), but under v4 currently doesn't, or the feature never did work?

Either way, it would be great if you could clarify the instructions you wrote about this feature in your initial post, copied below - or consider adding to that first post a link to later posts detailing significant changes. I appreciate what I'm suggesting is a bit of a hassle, but I thought I'd read all the 260+ posts to ensure I was up to speed on the latest install details, and don't recall reading anything saying the feature wasn't active.




Much respect for all you've done,
Hamish
