selecting multiple edges for filleting script

Here's a script for selecting multiple edges for filleting:



Installation is a little different because this is an “instant script” rather than a “command”. That means it should go in a “scripts” folder. A “scripts” folder doesn't exist by default, so you might need to make it inside of the Moi appdata folder.

On Windows you can find the Moi appdata folder by typing Win+R to bring up the Windows "Run" dialog and then type in:
%AppData%\Moi\

On Mac from a Finder window, go to the menu and pick Go > "Go to folder" and type in:
~/Library/Application Support/Moi/

You should see “moi.ini” and a folder “commands”. Create a new folder "scripts" if it doesn't already exist directly inside the folder “Moi”. Then move cornerEdgesOfFace.htm and cornerEdgesOfFace.js into the scripts folder. Finally, set up a shortcut key by going to Options > Shortcut Keys and type in cornerEdgesOfFace as the command name.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the new selection undo commands. Those are working great here.

Currently this script only selects the outside corner edges of a face. In other words, corner edges that intersect with the outer edge loop. It might be nice if each edge loop could be targeted independently. Kind of like how surface/surface flow is sensitive to where I click on the face or maybe like curve.clickSelectionPoint, but for a face. Is there something that could be used to get the edge closest to where the face is click selected?

Can it works on some objects / Volumes in the same time ?

That's right Pilou. It doesn't work for holes.

It works one face at a time, but those faces can be of different solids. Are you saying that it would be useful if it could operate on multiple faces at a time?

Hi Peer,

re:

There isn't a script accessible method on a face for getting the click selection point like there is currently for curves, but I will add it in for the next beta release.

Thanks Michael! I'm looking forward to it.

Pilou: I'll look into having it work for multiple faces at the same time next time I work on this plugin.
