Sure that would work fine. Or you could leave it in the UI folder and rename it as ViewportForeground_orig.png or something like that.

Yup.

Changing the name should have the same effect in MoI as deleting the file - MoI is going to be looking for a file named SidePane.htm , any file named anything other than that will just not be used.

Hi Michael,

Everything worked great! The naming as on/off makes sense now. Got it.

I may try to separate out the "Draw Curve" and "Draw Solid" panels myself. Took a look at the HTM files side by side, original vs your modified one...I think I see the difference now.

If I understand this right...after the info for Draw Curve ending with
I type in </moi:PaletteBody>
Then...<moi:PaletteHeader id="DrawSolid">
-DrawSolid contents-

</moi:PaletteBody>

I'll give it a shot. I'm feeling lucky.

Thanks for the much appreciated help!

Hi Michael,

Separated out the "Draw Curve"/"Draw Solid" thanks to you. Works great so far!

Just curious...why is it when I open the HTM file...the lines of code don't begin from the left hand side of the page. Seems to start from the centerline.

"TR" is lined up down the center of the page.

Thanks so much for your help! Love the customizability of MOI!

That's from tab characters being expanded too large. Try using notepad++ to open it instead.

Having child content indented in helps to make sure opening/closing tags are balanced with each other.
