Hi Max

>> Could you add a line to main.js? <<

Yes. Although the line of code change did not fix the problem outright,
it has, at least, made NE on v4 useable, so thank you.

<< if you mean the little Octane logo
Yes :)
So I must read the code and make some headache tricky manipulations for the Nodes Menu!
Wish only one must be made for have the same on the screen of the node Logo Octane Tittle ? :)

Hi Pilou,

i don't use Node Editor but as understood you must create an icon for every node you like to have an icon in.

So if you look at Max's code example you see how it should be done, in case you like to put an icon in your
own node file.

Regards
Stefan

Hi Pilou!

No tricky or headache at all if you are a little bit familiar with this kind of things :)

Just use the online tool I've reported (https://www.base64-image.de/) and follow this little example (pseudo code) :

// This is a js node definition file placed inside the "extensions" folder
function NameOfTheNode() {	
	......
	... js code of the constructor function of the node
	......
}

// here is the section that is important for you
NameOfTheNode.title = "NodeTitle";
NameOfTheNode.desc = "Node description";
NameOfTheNode.icon = "data:image/png;base64,xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";

Where "xxxxxxxxxxx........" is the base 64 code generated by the online tool (https://www.base64-image.de/)


Nothing more than that :)

Ok I have made my own for be sure to understand what i made! :)

With SumpoPaint of course! :)

Just curious logo is not centered on the Menu's Lines?...
Maybe the original is not exactly at the center...
Edit : even the original is centered result is bottom offseted! ?

Hello Max,
I made a first experiment with an icon. Is it true that we will lost the node state (green, orange,red).?



Have a nice evening

Hi,
I have been playing with adding Icons in the node editor to see if they can be recognised at the 64 x 64 size.
On my surface Pro even when zoomed in I don't think over detailed icons will be recognised.
Any idea's on best colour's ?

Hallo together,

where can I find the current instructions how to install the nodeeditor on V4.

---

Have a look here:
http://moi3d.com/wiki/Nodeeditor

---

Ralf, thank you, it functioned well. Had to replace just the name of the folder.

Now I need a nodeeditor beginner tutorial.

Hi Rudi,
unfortunally there is no tutorial about the nodeeditor... its still a project in development.
But a good point to start is this forum ore the thread http://moi3d.com/forum/messages.php?webtag=MOI&msg=7777.1
You will find a lot of examples for whats possible to do with the nodeeditor.
An other thing are the extensions - a lot of people write special plugins for nodeeditor.
I will attach my extensions folder - i think its mostly complete. It goes into the nodeeditor folder

Have fun with nodeling!

Hi Ralf,

thank´s for the extensions. Integrated it in the extension folder. Now I must find out, what to do with them.

Because i think that this is the first of my Node creations which i think is USEFULL i post it in this thread...

THE DOVETAIL TRAY MAKER





HOW TO USE IT

Open the attached dovetailcase5.nod in MoI > hit run... and you see this:



Change the dovetails to your needs. And hit APPLY

NOW SWITCH BOTH SWITCHES ("Left/Right" and "Boards") and you can design a different Dovetail for the opposite side...



HIT APPLY AND CLOSE THE NODEEDITOR...
You will see the tray with the dove maker tools
Now select the upper and lower board and DO A BOOLEAN DIFFERENCE with the correspondending (the outer ones) tools to cut the dovetails:



Do the same with the other two boards:



You have the dovetail tray!



Do some small chamfer...



You can also make a small gab between the two parts - VERY USEFULL IF YOU 3D PRINT IT - and it brings a snuggly fit...






As a joiner i would be proud of it!

And there are NO SPECIAL EXTENSIONS used..
HAVE FUN !

Will be fine if any 2 intersected volumes can be used! ;)



French version is in Progress!

"Open the attached dovetailcase5.nod in MoI > hit run... and you see this:"
Hi
When i load dovetailcase5.nod i can't hit run (show screenshot)
and a part of nodes are red..

---

Your node extensions are not up to date...
Look here for a actual one...

Thanks Ralf ! it's great !

Let the Dove-tools jump over a FLOW-command and you can do also round edges...
