Hi guys

I have done a search all over this site for a script that will toggle the both sides option for offset curve and havent found one.
I did manage to find one for extrude tho which is nice.
Is it also possible to have a script to bind to a hotkey that works for both offset and extrude?
Also an option for cap end would be great too
Cheers

Hi K3nny, so there are a couple different ways.

You can set up a shortcut key that will always run offset with both sides off like this (in MoI v4):

offset curvebothsides=false

Or always on with this:

offset curvebothsides=false

Or here is one that will toggle it while you are in the command as if you clicked it. It should work for Offset, Extrude and also the Line command:

script: /* Toggle both sides for offset or extrude */ if ( moi.command.currentCommandName ) { if ( moi.ui.commandUI.curvebothsides ) moi.ui.commandUI.curvebothsides.click(); if ( moi.ui.commandUI.bothsides ) moi.ui.commandUI.bothsides.click(); }

A toggle for cap ends would be like this:

script: /* Toggle cap ends for offset or extrude */ if ( moi.command.currentCommandName ) { if ( moi.ui.commandUI.curvecapends ) moi.ui.commandUI.curvecapends.click(); if ( moi.ui.commandUI.capends ) moi.ui.commandUI.capends.click(); }

Are there resources for learning how to script for Moi around ?
I can code in Python and Javascript and would like to make some tools.

Thanks

cool but list of shortCuts maybe extends too! :)

Hi K3nny,

Not really, it's just not an area that I have been able to dedicate much time to as of yet. There is some info here though:
