Thank you Michael.
You are a superstar.
Seems that the operative phrase is:
title = line.match(/\/\*\!(.+)\*\//);
So, I tried this on "MoI 4.0 beta Jan-22-2020":
script: /*! TOGGLE CURVES HIDE*/ var allcurves = moi.geometryDatabase.<<...etc.>>
... albeit to no avail.
So, hmm, I don't know what else to do. ???

Hi Mindset, ok so the file "82 Shortcuts.js" should be in %appdata%\Moi\startup and Shortcuts.menu.htm should be in %appdata%\Moi\customui .
Is that what you have ? What happens when you push the button, is anything shown at all?
- Michael
From: bemfarmer
After much confusion, I finally got customUI shortcut icon to work, as per Michael's instructions for the shortcut .js and .htm files.
Pressing the button on the task bar shows 5 shortcuts, (so far, prior to doing any /*! */ edits).
(I used "83 Shortcuts", because 82 is being used with Snapshots.)
(With Moi V4 beta)
- Brian
One of the 5 shortcuts showing had this format: script:/*!Select edges v1.2 */ var gd = moi.geometryDatabase; func.....
After adding a new shortcut key to MoI (V4), close and reopen MoI.
I could not locate the script: script:/*! +TOGGLE CURVES HIDE*/..., in order to test it.
From: Mindset (IGNITER)
I GENUINELY appreciate your time, attention ...and most especially your help.
When the button is clicked, it displays a stub, as shown:
However, as you suggest, once I moved "Shortcuts.menu.htm" from...
..\AppData\Roaming\Moi\ui\customui\
to
..\AppData\Roaming\Moi\customui\
it started working as expected !!!
Moi must be the greatest software in the world and a primary reason is how we, the user base, are treated and treat each other on this forum.
Thank you mightily !!!

Hi Michael,
In the upcoming release of V4 have you considered building the custom UI into the release maybe in the installation process can you choose classic UI or custom UI - I think with modern screens and extra pixels the custom UI install is very useful in having those tools ready to go and provide a comfortable working environment that is still simple but extremely powerful.
Just a random thought.
Alex.

Hi Alex, sorry no that's not something I've been planning. It doesn't really fit with the overall design of MoI which is focused on being streamlined and not showing a whole bunch of buttons at the top level all of the time.
But at some point I do want to make a mechanism for managing that area of the UI so you could promote some of your most frequently used commands there.

Hi,
I haven't tried any sort of custom UI but I did like the idea of a "library" button.
That would seem to be in keeping with the idea of streamlining things.
Granted it doesn't save a lot of steps but it would be pretty nice just the same.

It would be nice if snapshot had a popup menu associated with it, for the different modes.
Maybe an html file could do this?

Hi guys, a quick (and simple I guess) question: how can I install the Custom UI Beta 2 in MoI 4 (Beta Jan 22 2020)?
What I've done so far:
1) Downloaded MoI 4.0 Beta Jan-22-2020 from
http://moi.maxsm.net
2) Unzipped directory and copied into C:\Program Files\MoI 4.0 beta Jan-22-2020
3) Started MoI.exe
After that, I cannot see the custom bar. Is there something I'm missing here? I've been reading the forum, but I cannot find what's wrong. Should be something obvious.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Art.
For Windows 10, the %AppData% path should be used. (Type in %AppData% in the windows search box, lower left corner of Windows 10 screen.)
I would suggest first that your C:\Users\<yourUsername>)\AppData\Roaming\Moi folders be unhidden.
(Google "unhide appdata folder windows 10") ...show hidden folders.
Also helpful is to set up a Library "MoiAppData" in File Explorer, for this path to ...AppData\Roaming\Moi, for quick access.
My Library link usually does not show the \Moi text, but the subdirectory is there.
The contents of this ...AppData\Roaming\Moi directory may be:
Folders:
commands (my extra non stock moi _scripts)
customui
nodeeditor
objects
snapshots
startup
There may also be some misc. files there, like MoiColors, moi license keys, etc.
- Brian
I scanned this topic back 2 years, and did not see comprehensive instructions for install in Moi v4 beta,
although a lot of issues were addressed.
I'd say follow Max's original instructions, but use %appdata%.

Wow Brian, thanks for this FAST and comprehensive answer.
It is working now. I think your post should be pinned.
Thanks
Art
From: Michael Gibson
Hi art, yes like Brian mentions above for v4 you should install it into the appdata folder, not into \Program Files.
Install instructions are here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.268
Try using Win+R to bring up the Windows "Run" dialog, and then type in:
%AppData%\Moi
and push Enter. That will open up the MoI appdata folder.
When you unzip CustomUI.2.0.beta2.zip there should be 3 folders that were inside the .zip . The folders are "customui", "objects", and "startup".
These should be copied over to the %AppData%\Moi folder.
So you should end up with:
%AppData%\Moi\customui
%AppData%\Moi\objects
and there will already be a %AppData%\Moi\startup folder, copy the contents of the startup folder in the .zip file into the %AppData%\Moi\startup folder.

The screen UI element for numeric input is missing.
This input widget doesn't appear.
Your suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi Mindset, does it not appear only in one specific place or everywhere?
Do you happen to have this set in your moi.ini ? :

Bingo! Perfect!
BTW, Mr. Gibson, if I were to attempt to fully express how much I appreciate you, then neither of us would have time left for anything else.
Thank you Sir,

How can I get a screenshot with a white background when using:
%AppData%\Roaming\Moi\ui\customui\-84 Snapshot.htm
???
Many Thanks,
Mindset
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Mindset, I don't seem to have an "-84 Snapshot.htm" file in the regular CustomUI package. Can you post it?
- Michael
From: Mindset (IGNITER)
Thanks Michael,
Maybe I renumbered it for some reason... don't remember.
