Hi
Could you please explain the "Wire," "Edge," and "Wire2" options to me? If you can, I'd just like to know what to put in each one.

I used "Wire" and "Edge" a long time ago, but I don't remember what they do. The "Wire2" function is new, and I don't know what it's for.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Booleano,

For Wire you pick 2 points each one on a surface and it makes a tube between them like this:



Wire2 is similar but adds an option for giving a profile curve for the tube cross section:

I'm not sure what "Edge" does, can you attach the files for it here? Also attach your dialog box file which I think you named SidePane1.htm

Hi Booleano, the Edge button runs a script inside SidePane1.htm that has this comment:
/* Extend edge selection one step */

It looks like if you have edges selected it will grow the selection to neighboring edges.

Hi

This is what I get when I click on the "Wire" and "Wire2" icons.

Please create a file with the three objects so I can see how it's done.
Thanks

Hi Booleano, that is saying that the Wire command wasn't found.

Does it work if you push Tab and then type _wire (with starting underscore) and push Enter?

If that works then you need to update your SidePane1.htm dialog box to have command="_Wire" (underscore at the start) instead of command="Wire". Same for _Wire2

Hi Pilou

It's fixed now.

P.S. Your render is beautiful, how did you do it?

As you see i have hundred of scripts intalled !:)

2 possibilities (for me) to Access
You have 2 more possibilities
- make a shortcut with _wire or _wire2 in the second column
or Press Tab and write _wire or _wire2

A big list alphabetical (my favorite) or an list of Images using follow for make the same than your but not practical! :)
as you see i have not image for the specific "Wire" ;)

Ps and more for me it's inFrench! :)

If you have your message it's because as Michael said you have not your Script installed ! in the commands folder!

Must be for Windows in the folder Roaming Moi / commands / _wire.htm & _wire.js ..._wire2.htm & _wire2.js
I suppose that will works also if they are in the direct Program / Moi/ commands

re:

It's either that, or if it is installed you've got the wrong name for it in your dialog box.

The button in your dialog box has command="Wire" but the actual file name is _Wire with an underscore in front.
