Thread Split: Some posts in this thread have been moved here

SetName.js is a node to re-Name a geometric Object. It is a script which adds the SetName node to the Objects2 menu, and may be placed in the nodeeditor> node>Extensions folder.
The node may be placed just before an Output Node. The desired output name may be typed in the Name field. Saving your node program also saves the modified Name.

It is a minor modification of Karsten's SetStyle node. Rainbow was commented out.

Seems to work OK, but I do not really know what I am doing... Also, only very limited testing was done.

Also, Karsten's BrepNameSubObjects node is throwing an error, in MoI4, when the input is curves, rather than a surface.
It works with a gyroid patch surface to name faces and edges.
(did not try MoI3.)

Any idea for "disapear" the result of the Trimming piece so keep the "big cube" trimed and disapear the little angle!
(or how select the little trimmed piece ...or mke it "invisible" ...)

Beacause TrimObj Node as no parameter included :(
here it's manually move after the node TrimObj

Hello all,

Well I am new to Nodeeditor in MOI 3D, I am currently using "nodeeditor 1.1 jms"

I have downloaded the attached files. and I see this:

 

As you can see "Run" is not active! how can I fix it?

I appreciate any help :)

Thank you Karsten for sharing! :)

Hi Psygorn (Drillbit),
The picture is very blurred, but it is the very old motor.nod node program, of Karsten. It does not work on my current node editor setup.
(Red in boxes likely indicates missing node(s).)

Instead, try Max's motor2 node:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=7713.203
Note that this link is for an old version, and to make it work, it is necessary to replace the three math nodes with new math nodes, with the same inputs and outputs, and F formulas, to make it work.
The three old math nodes are obsolete "frame" versions...(Note the obsolete "blue" color coding of the wires.) The old color coding is even different from Max's picture, but Nodeeditor has changed
a lot over the years.
There must be a more recent version of motor2, (???), probably with a quartz clock input...
The motor2 node in the link should be updated.
motor2Q.nod has quartz clock, and also needs the motor2.3dm file.

Note that the Motor2.nod node needs the motor2.3dm file of the crankshaft to be loaded into MoI.
I ran (a more recent) motor2 node a few years ago.

- Brian

The Angle node may be replaced with a Quartz node, with Hz (Hertz) input from Constant node with value 1.

Tanx bemfarmer,

I used motor2Q.nod and motor2.3dm and it works like a charm! :) tanx

So, it is compatible with current version of nodeeditor?

And one question do we have the ability to search for nodes within the nodeeditor environment? (Like Blender you press F3 and a search combo opens)

Also is it possible to have nodeeditor inside of MOI, like one of its panels? (Objects, Types, Styles)

Hello guys,

I had created the attached nodes using nodeeditor 1.1 jms.

I wanted to select all created spheres and perform "union" command on them. I faced some difficulties as to I don't know how to select objects within nodeeditor.

My next goal is to find the intersection edges of small spheres with the larger one ( Is it possible to do such thing using nodeeditor?)

any help is appreciated. :)

When you have few number of objects you can make something like this

Hi PILOU,

I don't get it! I want to select create objects by nodeeditor.

Edit: How one can do it by controlling the movement of objects?

Could you please explain how I should use it to select created objects? So, then I can perform "Union" on them.

Later I would like to know how I can select certain edges using nodeeditor is it possible?

I am not sure you can "select" an object result : you can take the result for make something with it!

The Union Node works like that (that is here "Selected" by hand) but will be the same if it's an object(s) resulting of something!

Hi,
the node you need is the concat.

Problem of Nodes system : when you stop for a while you forget all! :)
Even you have made the Library ! ;)

---

Thank you Barry-H :)

By the way do you know if it is possible to do this (Selecting certain edges of unioned mesh) or not?

---

I understand PILOU :)

Is there a manual to read and learn the functionality of nodes?

in a glance https://moiscript.weebly.com/construct.html#bibeunion I was not able to find out how "select" works for example.

Should I keep digging into above link?

or is there another source for learning that kind of things.

---

You have all nodes here with their explanation so it's not exactly a manual but...
in English...and in French ;)
https://moiscript.weebly.com/biblio-elephant.html

You have Selected Node
https://moiscript.weebly.com/objects.html#bibeselected

and this shows (2 lines bottom) the action on the Select Node on this page : https://moiscript.weebly.com/node.html

Ok

So, digging it is! :)

---

Bon courage! It's not so evident!

Hello guys!

I still have don't know how I could select those edges I had highlighted on the attached photo!

Could anyone help me out here?

Dear all,

I tried to use the OFFSET node to create a bigger version of a closed curve object i.e. a rectangle.

When entering a "Dist" number into the editor of this node, i.e.10, the rectangle gets a 10mm negative offset and is getting smaller. Entering negative numbers is not accepted. Switching the "Both" parameter to "YES" is creating both offset rectangles correctly.

My issue now is that I only want to have the bigger rectangle and not both.

Do I misunderstand the node or do I use it in the wrong way?

Thanks in advance for any ideas or proposals how to get this working.

Joerg

I will investigate your problem :)

Maybe like this ?
