I have been playing with Scale Array, I think it is great! I have been building up multiples of my arrays, and to select a whole row by selecting the base object and inverting selection leaves me with lots of lines to delete. Would it be possible to have a 'select objects' or 'select lines' in the selection menu? It would cut down the number of spare parts to deselect.

regards Tim.

Hi Tim, I'm glad you're having fun with Scale Array!

This is something that I'm planning to add with a batch of additional selection tools for version 2.0 .

In the meantime, it is possible to set up a keyboard shortcut with some script in it that can be used to select all curves, which may be helpful.

To do this, close down MoI and edit your moi.ini file using notepad. Moi.ini can be found in this location: C:\Documents and Settings\Michael\Application Data\Moi\moi.ini .

In the section [Shortcut Keys], add this entry:

[Shortcut Keys]
C=script:moi.geometryDatabase.getObjects().getCurves().setProperty( 'selected', true );


With that in place, you can now push the "C" key to select all curves - does that do you any good? There isn't any way currently to distinguish lines versus other curves though.

Hi Michael, yes that's great , saves a lot of trouble,
many thanks, Tim.

Michael,
Thank you for this. This is fantastic for me as I usually save all of my profiles and have them hidden just in case I need them later.

...just one step ahead baby..... ch ch..

C=script:moi.geometryDatabase.getObjects().getCurves().setProperty( 'hidden', true );
