Hi Michael. Thanks for your help. Just wondered why he would embed the image rather than just pointing to it?

Hi Ron, no problem!

re:

I'm not sure, maybe something like he wanted to reduce the number of files that had to be managed.

Hi All,

Dose any one know how make the Z Axis on the grid visible on in the 3D view port?

Hi Ogar,

re:
> Dose any one know how make the Z Axis on the grid visible on in the 3D view port?

Sorry no there isn't any way set up to show that currently.

- Michael

Not quite the z-axis request, but a line can be drawn at the position of the z-axis, even in Front or Right view,
or a construction line can be added.

Hi, I suppose you could add a vertical polyline and colour it however you want then lock it. Save the scene as a template and load from that each time. Not perfect but I think it would work :)
Ron

Hi again, could someone point me to the HTML than controls the colour of the panel divider for the 4 views ?
Ron

Hi Ron, for the viewport borders that's one of the few remaining things that is controlled by a bitmap image rather than HTML. You can modify it by changing the bitmap ViewportForeground.png in the ui folder.

Hello everyone :)
Newbie here, first post ^_^
Really glad to be part of Moment of Inspiration Family. Thank you for making such wonderful software Michael and HUGE thanks for everyone for making understandable, fast, easy to use, beautiful and most important FUN to work with :)

Have some questions about Custom UI. Some features does not working. Maybe some of you might know and can help me?
(I'm on Moi V3 Windows 10)

Downloaded CustomUI.1.03.win.mac 2015-08-29

1. Obj library - I can not save my objects to library. It lets me name the object, but after hit "OK" the new object did not appears in Obj library next to Max's Cube, Sphere, Plane already created (attached 1st picture)
2. Snapshot does not save my files, or maybe i was looking not in the right MOI "snapshot" folder :(
3. Lightening also does not working. Want to have some highlights on the surface. Maybe this because of lightening script. (attached image)
4. Tested some scripts. Working like a charm :) Not all tested, but happy so far.

So i was wondering is there any solution to fix all this or I should upgrade to V4 Beta?

Many thanks
Appreciate your help.

Hi Konni, welcome to MoI and to the forum!

So for #1 and #2 I think the problem is that by default Windows will prevent applications from writing into the "Program Files" directory as a security measure. If you run MoI at an elevated privilege that could solve this problem. To do that right-click on the shortcut icon you use to launch MoI and then I think it's the "compatibility" tab where you'll find a checkbox that says "Run as Administrator". Try enabling that.

for #3 Lighting options, I think that is expecting for a list of lights to have been written in the moi.ini file by a separate LightingOptions plugin. Try installing that other plugin from here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=5222.43

Hope that works!

Thank you Michael for such full and informative answer.
Yep - #1 and #2 solved - Run as Admin and it worked. :)
#4 - Lightening Options also solved. Have them in Options ->View ->Lightening Options -> Lightening Presets. And also have these in custom ui bar :)

Thank you once again for making awesome software ^_^
(I'm in V4 Beta now).

Now I'm using the V4 Beta. Thank you.

Hi all,
Sorry, again noob question here.
How to get folders in Object Library?
Appreciate ^_^

You must have these objects yet in your folder!

I have these default objects in my folder. I can create new objects and they appear in my Objects Library in Moi and in %AppData folder. But when i create manually folder in appData it does not appear in Moi. And in Moi I do not know how to create folder and save in it some similar items like for example screws or smth...
Thank you

Hi Konni,

> How to get folders in Object Library?

I don't think it supports sub-folders currently.

Hello Master,
I am getting a script error and no object library, basically nothing happens. What am I doing wrong ?

hi, michael told you already, that this message comes from using a cracked v3 beta version... spambot maybe?

Hi guys,
I have re-installed both (moi_v3_setup) and (moi_v4_beta_Jan-22-2020_setup)
Then extracted (CustomUI.1.03.win.mac) into MoI3 and extracted (CustomUI.2.0.beta2) into the Roaming\MoI directories.
I am able to get a list of SHORTCUTS in MOI3 but cannot get to the shortcuts in MoI4
When I had a look in the (...\AppData\Roaming\Moi\startup) There is a list of all the buttons that populate the bottom Bar.
But SHORTCUTS is not there.
I have had a search around on the Discussion Forum but could not find an answer

Hi Maysky, yes it looks like the CustomUI for v4 does not have a shortcuts button like the one for v3 did.
