Hi Max,
In either MoI3, or MoI4beta, if the MoI window is not maximized,
and the External scripts screen is too big, or bigger in size,
(Mine has about 395 files in it.),
Then the external scripts screen only shows when the left (or right) mouse button is held down.

Hi Max,

I would like to get your thoughts on the idea of making a small alteration to Widget/Knob.
Often in developing node circuitry, There is the need for dialling even integers only ( or at other times, only odd numbers). This could easily be achieved by changing the "Digits" field to an "Increment" field, as shown:


The default setting of course would be 1, and Decimals could also be accommodated, for example, using 0.01 instead of 2 as presently used to represent the same. I also think it is more intuitive.

I understand that making this change couldl create backwards compatibility issues, but perhaps this could be avoided by having RMB options of Digit (Default) and Increment (2nd option).

Thanks for your continued development
I am excited to get my hands on v1

P.S. Also sometime ago we discussed the inclusion of button & switch, that you had planned to repurpose code that you have already developed for a different application.

Another revision that would be simple (I think) but very useful would be to use createRadialGradient() method to lay a radial gradient (dark grey to light grey) behind grid in NE interface. This would offer visual cue to locate area within main window in reference to the totality. At the moment, at time when you fully zoom out, if nodes are not shown, there is no way to be sure which way to pan to move towards the centre to find node circuitry. Of course a "zoom to extents" function would be better but also more involved (I imagine)

Sorry, I was extremely busy last week.

I can't reproduce it. Anyway I use MoI's built-in functions to show the window, so I can't fix this issue by myself.

I need to significantly change all widget nodes to implement this feature. Sorry, I can't make it in the nearest future.

>>Also sometime ago we discussed the inclusion of button & switch, that you had planned to repurpose code that you have already developed for a different application.
I rewrote this node for using with NE.
You can download an updated interface.js from my site: http://moi.maxsm.net/nodeeditor/

>>Of course a "zoom to extents" function would be better but also more involved (I imagine)
I'll add this feature in the next NE release.

Max

Thanks for switch node, it is masterfully resolved & will be very useful.

>> need to significantly change all widget nodes to implement this feature. <<
Is this also true if feature is a RMB second state option of knob only?

Thanks again for your continued development of NE
James

Hi Max,
is it possible to have a feedback node similar to Hoopsnake as discussed in the nodebundle thread.

Wow thats a nice switch/button..
Thanks a lot Max!

Hi Max,

RE: NE interfacing via trackpad issues

Problem appears to be fixed...

Hi James,

I'm glad that problem is solved. I'll add this fix to the next NE release.

Hello Max.

With the latest V4 and the latest version of your _sSplit.htm command I get this error after selected one face of the box and fired the command :



Ciao!

Hi Marco,

I can't reproduce this error. It seems you have an old version of the script.
Update it from my site: http://moi.maxsm.net/item/45

Ok. ASAP I will do. Thanks.

Done!
Now all is ok both in V3 and V4.

Thanks a lot!

Hello Max.

While surfing the web searching a tool that I need actually for my daily software developing,
I accidentally found this : https://pressurejs.com/

And it occurred to me the topic you were talking about some days ago : "touchpad gestures"


I don't know that product (https://pressurejs.com/) but it may help you for what you want to do.

If you want, give it a chance. It's free.

Ciao!

Hi Marco,
thank you for this link, I'll check this library and maybe I'll find something interesting.
However, I have no plans to use this library in my projects. In the cases when I can write a code by myself, I prefer to not use external libraries and frameworks.

Hello Max!

@You : "...thank you for this link, I'll check this library and maybe I'll find something interesting...."

You're welcome.

Ciao!

Hi max,
Have you update Heightmap for V4 ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Finema,

I didn't update it yet.
Wait a couple of days, I'll try to fix it.

OK Max
Thanks a lot.

Hi Finema,

P.S. I don't know why but this script doesn't work without an alert dialog. I'll check it later (or maybe Michael will help us)

Hi Max,

re:
> P.S. I don't know why but this script doesn't work without an alert dialog. I'll check it

It's because setting img.src is asynchronous. When you set img.src it just initiates the image loading process - things are set up in HTML in this asynchronous way often times because it's designed for downloading stuff from remote servers which can take a while.

When you show the alert dialog, that runs a message loop and the timers for image loading are able to get triggered and finish the load.

You could remove the alert dialog though if you split the rest of your image processing functionality into a separate function and then get that set up on the image.onload event, img.onload should be called when the image is all ready.
