Full Version: MoI commands / scripts you couldn't live without, and why

Hi,

I'd like to start a thread where we can post our favourite MoI plug-in commands / scripts. Please include a brief motivation why you couldn't live without it.

I'll start with my favourites:

• BlendCap — Makes it very easy to give an open edge a rounded cap.
• cMorph — Handy for interpolating key shapes for a Loft.
• FatLines — Powerful way to turn lines into outlines.
• Nudge — I really couldn't live without this. It makes precise positioning of objects a breeze.
• Pipe2Thickness — Turn a curve into a pipe quickly, and taper it and/or make it hollow if you want. There are three variations: Pipe (simple), Pipe2 (tapering and hollowing options) and Pipe2Thickness (wall thickness can be indicated, in stead of a second radius).
• ScaleIndividual — Easy scaling of multiple objects using their individual centers. Then you can use ExplodeMove to move them away from each other or closer to each other.
• UnwrapCurve — An essential tool when you want to use Flow.

I'm curious to read what your favourite scripts are!

All time favourite

MaximizeViewport – switches viewport under the current mouse cursor location between respective split and top(bottom)/front(back)/right(left)/3D view.
quote:
Space=script:if ( moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel.mode != 'split' ) { moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel.mode = 'split' } else { var viewport = moi.ui.getViewportUnderMouse(); if ( viewport ) viewport.viewpanel.mode = viewport.name; }
