Hi,

I've used this command many times but after reinstalling Moi3d I get the following error.

Could someone help please?

Thanks,
Gunter

Hi Gunter, what does your keyboard shortcut look like?

Do you possibly have it as the following:

script: UnwrapCurve

If so, then that's the problem - you need to put just plain "UnwrapCurve" in there, when a keyboard shortcut starts with script: it should then contain all the actual script code embedded directly right after it. If you are putting in the name of a command to load, it should not have that "script:" label in front of it. So make your keyboard shortcut to be just :

UnwrapCurve

and that will solve it, if that was the problem.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the reply.

My keyboard shortcut is just UnwrapCurve. I downloaded the script from http://moi3d.com/forum/messages.php?webtag=MOI&msg=5136.1

It has worked before. Btw, I use a mac and followed your instructions of putting both files in the command folder. In case it's of any use, I'm using V2.52

Still stuck..

Thanks,
Gunter

sorry, i thought it got something to do with unintentional blank spaces, but that was just my imagination..

update: may be you've got (white)space in front of the command..

Hi Gunter, is it possible you didn't unzip the files?

The other possibly way you could get a script error message like that is if UnwrapCurve was not recognized as an installed command. When MoI does not recognize the text as a command name it will also try to execute it as script code and you would get that type of script error that you show.

But in order to get that there would need to be some problem with the installation - either files not unzipped or files copied into some other folder like /ui rather than /commands, so double check that...

Hi Gunter

Place a vertical ruler or business card vertically just in front of your U, and see that it intersects between the n and the c in
ReferenceError. This means that you have a space in front of your U, in your shortcut. (On Windows 7 anyway, Mac might be different?) So get rid of the space.

( I now use _UnwrapCurve style.)

Hi Gunter

I would go back and double check the spelling, including no spaces, even re-enter the names in /commands and shortcuts, even though they look right.

Do other scripts have the same problem?

Also, I wonder if an old Moi.ini file, or something? is pointing to the wrong subdirectory somewhere?

- Brian

Thank you all but I've checked everything.

UnwrapCurve - no space before it. Tried _UnwrapCurve - made no difference.

The files automatically unzip when I download them to my mac. I copy both files to the correct folder. Also, I make sure Moi3d is closed when I copy the files.

Still baffled..

Gunter

Another thought... this only happened after I downloaded the latest version of moi v2.... v2.52

Before this UnwrapCurve worked fine.

Just thought I'd let you know..

Gunter

Hi Gunter.

Do all of your other shortcut keys work properly? I would try to disable a different one, say SineWave, by misspelling it in
the Commands folder say as SSSineWave, and seeing if it disables. This would indicate the wrong Commands folder???

 

Note that the UnwrapCurve names all have to be spelled the same, without leading or trailing spaces.

In the Commands folder:
UnwrapCurve.js
UnwrapCurve.htm (not .html)

Under Shortcuts:
Key: (for example U), Command: UnwrapCurve

- Brian

Edit: I still think it is whitespace :-)

Hi Gunter, I tested UnwrapCurve over here with v2.52 on OSX myself and it's working fine for me...

One other thing to check - when you downloaded UnwrapCurve.zip, the automatic unzipper thing probably made a folder named "UnwrapCurve" with the 2 files contained inside of it.

When you copied things over to the commands folder, did you possibly copy the folder named "UnwrapCurve"? If so then that's the problem - MoI won't find the files if they are contained in some sub-folder, the 2 command files have to be present directly inside the commands folder and not nested in some additional folder structure inside of it.

I'm not sure of what else to tell you , other than to triple check the shortcut and that the files are copied as they need to be.

- Michael

Hi Brian,

I tested ReconstructCurve and that also does not work. The other commands seem to work.

Here is where I pasted my files..










I wish it was whitespace but it's not...

Still stuck but thanks.

Gunter

Hi Michael,

I copied only the files not the folder.

What is odd is that the Reconstructcurve command also does not work. Please see the snapshots of where I pasted the files and
my shortcut menu.

I even tried deleting moi and reinstalling it. That didn't work either.

Stumped but thanks.

Gunter

Hi Gunter, do you possibly have OSX installed on a "case-sensitive" disk partition?

If so then maybe try making your shortcut say UnwrapCurve (note the capital letter C in Curve), right now you have Unwrapcurve with lower case c...

Just grasping at straws here...

- Michael

Hi Michael,

I just changed the C to caps.

Same deal :(

Gunter

Michael, Brian et.al.

You're all going to want to throttle me!

I feel like a complete ass.

I finally figured it out. What happened was when I downloaded moi again, I clicked on the moi.app icon and then just right clicked to keep it in the dock. I did not
physically drag it into the applications folder. Since it was in my dock, I assumed it was in the applications folder.

Now, after downloading it, I dragged it into the Applications folder and then tried it. It works.

I'm so sorry for wasting everyone's time.

Apologies. And thank you all for your super prompt support.


Gunter

No problem Gunter, I'm glad you've got it working now!

- Michael

Thanks Michael!
