""""""""So my version will be customized with funny thing max="14" (line 282) """""""""""""""

Mine is set to "15" and outputs 15....

I also set my default at 4 and wrote in to default with "units" checked and also to have "in" as the trailer.......

Hi JL82,

re:

From the error it looks like you are running MoI version 2, and I think the script requires MoI version 3 in order to run properly.

Hello everybody.

The distance, the red arrow can be changed? Between the dimension line and digits?

Through editing files "_Dimensions.htm" or "_Dimensions.js"?

Hi GonzoRus,

Yes it's possible to change that spacing by editing the _Dimensions.htm file.

Using the latest version Dimensions.v.1.0.2015.09.14.zip which you can get from here: http://moi.maxsm.net/media/files/ , you would want to modify line #135 which sets the placement of the text.

135:     textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize/3)/2, 0);

You would want to add something to the 2nd parameter to frame.evaluate(), like this for example (see the bold text for the + 1 that is added):

135:     textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize/3)/2 + 1, 0);

Hi guys :)

This +1 method doesn't work correct in some cases.
It will be better to use the following line:
code:
textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize/2)/2, 0);
or
code:
textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize/1)/2, 0);
or
code:
textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize*3)/2, 0);

Maybe input this on the Dimension Menu will be very fine! ;)

"Maybe input this on the Dimension Menu will be very fine! ;)"

YES!!! it would be amazing!

Changed line 135

textframe.origin = frame.evaluate(textShift, (1-2*(angle>=180))*(lineWidth+textSize/1)/2, 0);

The distance from the dimension line has increased.

BUT! The angles are displayed incorrectly.

Hi

Will the script work on Mac - and how?

Thanks :)


From: Michael Gibson
17 Oct 2016   [#124] In reply to [#123]
Hi Karl, yes the dimension script will work on the Mac version as well.

You can download the latest version of the script from Max's site here: http://moi.maxsm.net/media/files/ the one you want is named Dimensions.v.1.0.2015.09.14.zip

Then for installation instructions please refer to FAQ #1, how do I install a plug-in script? .

Hi All,

I have read this thread with some interest as it may be feasible for me to somehow export MoI3D files with dimensions. I also noticed that Michael had/have this as a potential part of a V4 release ...

To this end: Is there any news on whether or not this will be part of a V4 release - and if so when is the V4 release due?

Have a good day ;-)

Jesper

Hi Jesper, I can't really promise 100% that it will be in v4 but it is one of the priorities that I want to work on. I won't really know how it will go though until I've been able to work on it some.

The V4 beta test period just started a few weeks ago, and could last anywhere between 4 to 9 months before the v4 final version is ready.

Right now the only things I can say for sure that will be in v4 are that it will be 64-bit and have a native Mac version.

Seems Dimension by Max Smirnov works also with the Beta of the 27 November 2017!
