Trim
t - trim add point
s - trim single segment ( can crash if not selected from object that was separated, idk how to fix)
added
c - join curves after deleting unwanted segments

fixed UnionJoin script
earlier opened surfaces where duplicating

Have you somewhere a repository of all your cool things ?

Hi Tudor,

In general it's difficult to work on something where you're zoomed out so that it is too small on screen. It's good to zoom in in such situations so you have some room on screen to work with.

There is a setting though for how far your mouse cursor needs to be from a snap point for the snap to engage, that's under Options > Snaps > Object snap options > "Snap radius".

i might forgot, but this should work after copy/paste with coordinate frame
moi.ui.alert(moi.ui.getLastOrientationPickerFrame().origin.x)

1. construction lines + align on surface + rect center
drag construction lines & place the first point, second point I think should be autoaligned to surface

2. pointpicker.addSnapPoint( startpt, moi.ui.getText('Closed') ) I dont see text toolbox- is any trick behind

Hi Tudor, re: #2:

> 2. pointpicker.addSnapPoint( startpt, moi.ui.getText('Closed') ) I dont see text toolbox- is any trick behind

When you call moi.ui.getText( 'textid' ); that looks up text in the current language's string table for the text of the given id value.

There is no id value for "Closed" so your call there is going to return an empty string.

To fix it you could just pass some text directly instead of calling moi.ui.getText(), or use a valid textid like 'Closed snap'.

Hi Tudor,

re:

It's a bug where snap plane alignment is not happening when the base point is on a center object snap. I've got it on my list to get fixed up for v5.

ohayo !
Wanna ask if in cad is such thing like keep same edge fillet distance (similar to subd will be bevel). I know there's pipe and cut, blend surfaces, but can this be done automatically ?
left - current fillet, right- desired

Hi Tudor, try the "constant distance" type fillet shape.

The regular one called a "rolling ball" fillet generates arcs all of the same radius, with the arc length being longer or shorter depending on the angle between surfaces.

The constant distance method makes the fillet rails to be a given distance apart from each other instead.

it very often fails

Hi Tudor, yes unfortunately it's a pretty buggy area in the geometry library. It should work on the type of case that you showed though:

ohayo
curves/lines -> merge. It should cut objects like one with circle, it doesn't

Hi Tudor, boolean difference seems to do what you want on #3 and #4, but seems to be buggy on #1 and #2, I'll put it on my list to investigate.

is it possible when exporting to have a specific folder(now it exports at saved file location) ?

Hi Tudor,

re:
> is it possible when exporting to have a specific folder(now it exports at saved file location) ?

Sorry I don't understand the question, can you please describe it with a little more detail?

Thanks, - Michael

let's say I have folder on c:/moi_proj where are all moi projects
& have second - bridge folder, that will be on d:/bridge
moi now is configured to save & exports at same file location, and it will be on c:/moi_proj
i'm asking for export location folder → d:/bridge, or even further export by last export type format(fbx/step) → that will be d:/bridge/fbx or d:/bridge/step

Hi Tudor, the way it works now is that if you do a "SaveAs", and there is a file currently open, it will start in the folder where that file is at.

If you do an Export or a "SaveAs" without any current active file opened, then it will start in the directory that a file dialog was last used in.


> i'm asking for export location folder → d:/bridge, or even further export by last export
> type format(fbx/step) → that will be d:/bridge/fbx or d:/bridge/step

There isn't a good way to do this currently but I will see about adding in a method to make it possible to have a keyboard shortcut script that would make the file dialog start in a specific directory.

earlier idea for moi, realization in blender -> intuitive
moi doesn't have pie menu, but it could have some after shortcuts, s for align, and s + w -> top , s + d -> right, s +a -> left, s + s -> down
ps: i wans't in blender when i've posted
in blender it's must to have for hard surface, anyway up to scripting moi's "point's scriptable" won't be reason to implement

some futures that i'd like to have inside moi
towards 2d workflow*
recently i was studying marvelous designer & captures will be from there
fillets/chamfers - at least 2d should be interactive
1. fillets radius - awesome visualization, ai should be similar
