Still no go here.

Hi Mike,

> Still no go here.

Are you still getting that script error or not any script error anymore?

If you could not find the lines that Max was referring to above inside your CommandBar.htm then it means you somehow did not get that one file updated - it's the one file that needs to be overwritten...

I downloaded from this portion of the early thread. Was this were I need to be when I downloaded it?

Sorry I don't get that error message with the beta!

Hi Mike,

> I downloaded from this portion of the early thread. Was this were I need to be when I downloaded it?

I think Max said to get the one from the 1st message in this thread, which is here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.1

I just tested this over here on my Mac and it seems to be working ok for me.

What I did was right-clicked on the v3 beta's app icon and picked "Show package contents". Then inside there go to drive_c/moi

Then download the mac version .zip file that's an attachment on that first message.

Safari automatically unzips the file, go inside the unzipped directory and drag/drop both the "objects" and "snapshots" directories into drive_c/moi so you now have drive_c/moi/objects and drive_c/moi/snapshots.

Then go down inside of drive_c/moi/ui and also go into the /ui subfolder inside the downloaded one too. Grab all of that stuff tha's down inside of /ui and drag/drop it over into drive_c/moi/ui, if you have placed it in the correct spot Finder will warn you that there is one file that is a duplicate name (that's CommandBar.htm) and whether you want to keep both or replace it - choose replace here. After doing these steps then I was able to see the changes in MoI's bottom command bar.

Make sure you do not have MoI running while doing all that stuff.

Hope this helps!

Thank you I will give this a try again!!!

Got the interface to show but when I elect objects icon the program crashes.

Hi mike, I can repeat a crash over here but only if the /objects subdirectory has not been placed.

So my guess is that you don't have that directory in the proper place, maybe go over those previous directions again and double check that you have a directory drive_c/moi/objects, it should contain 6 files, 3 PNGs and 3 3DM files.

You will need both "objects" and "snapshots" directories copied into the right place (into drive_c/moi) in order for this to work.

Both of those should be under drive_c/moi - if you have placed those particular ones under drive_c/moi/ui that's not right.

It seems to be working now. I don't see all the objects that were shown in the first thread, gear,nut, bearing etc..
Thanks for hanging with me on this.

Hi mike, that's great that you've got it working!

> I don't see all the objects that were shown in the first thread, gear,nut, bearing etc..

That seems to be normal - there's only 3 included by default in this particular package.

I think the main idea is you can add your own objects in there. If you select an object you want to put in there, open that menu and move your mouse to that title text that says "Object library". A plus mark will appear and when you click there it will put up a dialog for you to put in a name and that will make a new entry in the menu.

If you want some objects like that gear and what not, you can get a bunch of stuff like that over at http://grabcad.com .

Thank you for your extraordinary help with this.

No problem Mike!

Hi Guys
I was having trouble getting the custom ui to find the lighting presets plugin
I have downloaded the lightingoptions.zip and copied it into the commands folder
it runs from this script on a key script: /* Opens Lighting Options Dialog */ moi.ui.createDialog( 'moi://ui/LightingOptions.htm' );

and would you believe it once I used the above script the custom button works
So problem solved

Hi
I have installed the custom ui into the latest beta Mar24th and it comes up with the error message custom iu folder not found
The customiu folder is in the ui folder does the command.htm need the full path to it?
Moi sits in my program files folder on the C drive
Any ideas
shayne

Hi Shayno,
It loaded ok over here. The file from MoI's UI is "commandbar.htm" that had an edit to use the custom ui. Did you update your commandbar.htm from the old install to the new one?

I think what happened was access was denied by windows to some of the files being extracted into my c drive , so were missing
I moved it elsewhere and redid the customiu install , working now thanks
shayne

Max,

Your CustomUI is great!
But I think that I'm doing something wrong.
I've got the latest March beta up and running with your CustomUI. The Ext Scripts come up OK with scripts that I already had installed but I can't get the list to update to show new scripts (eg Michael's Csec script) that I've copied to the Command folder in the new beta.
I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit.

Mike.

Me too.

Hi to all,

the CustumUI looks great - but where is the ViewReset-Button in each of the views? I need it very often ...

It's present for me, both in the latest (March) beta and the previous (November) beta.
