What is the command for: View > Display Hidden Lines ?
I 'd like to put it in my shortcut. Thanks in advance...

---

Hi Elang,

I believe it's this:

script: /* Toggle hidden line display */ moi.view.showHiddenLines = !moi.view.showHiddenLines;

---

Hi nameless...
Yes that's the one. Thank you very much for your help !

Cheers !.. :)

Hi Marco (mkdm),
Saw your forum thread about hotkeys - and found one F9 you were explaining and did a video about.
How to make Toggle / ResetTransparentDisplay script?
I'm on Win10, Moi V4 beta.
Want to have this hotkey useful script on one Key? Is this possible?
Or two keys?
Thank you

---

Hi Konni.

Well...I'm sorry but I think I didn't understand what you want to say with "Want to have this hotkey useful script on one Key? Is this possible? Or two keys?"


Anyway...if this can help I paste here the actual code of the two scripts:

Please remember that I wrote this scripts for the V3 and I don't know if they work also with V4


ToggleTransparentDisplayAutoSel.js

/* Toggle Transparence Display Mode AutoSel*/
var gd = moi.geometryDatabase;
var objs = gd.getSelectedObjects();
if (objs.length == 0) {
	objs = gd.getObjects();
}

for ( var i = 0; i < objs.length; ++i ) {
	var obj = objs.item(i);
	if (!obj.hidden) {
		var dm = obj.displayMode;
		obj.displayMode = (dm == 1) ? 0 : 1;
	}
}

ResetTransparentDisplay.js

/* Reset Transparence Display Mode*/
var gd = moi.geometryDatabase;
var objs = gd.getObjects();
objs.setProperty("displayMode", 0);

Hope this help. I can't do more actually. Not enough free time unfortunately :)

Have a nice day.

Hello everyone, is there a way to create "multiple sequence" hot keys?

For example Imagine I want to perform "chamfer" I would press "f" so, the fillet button would be selected and by pressing "f" or "c" on keyboard either "fillet" or "chamfer" could be selected respectively.

Is it possible to have such hotkeys inside of moi? If yes, would you please guide me how I can have them?

---

Hi Psygorn, sorry no there currently isn't any method set up for making multi sequence shortcut keys like that. It is something that I want to add in though.

- Michael

Oh ok, that would be great :-)

Since upgrading to MoI V4 I've completely rebuilt my shortcuts from scratch. As usual, the shortcuts are a never-ending project, but here's my current collection of commands and scripts that are assigned to various keys.

On a side note: some of the keyboard shortcuts are chosen to match those in ZBrush, and some may match Blender keyboard shortcuts.

Need a Keyboard Shortcut for the command "Area" to change the view rotate midpoint. This is the most important view function for me, it should works just with Ctrl+Shift.

---

Hi MPSchmied, you can set up a keyboard shortcut for Zoom Area by using this for the command part of the shortcut key:

script: var v = moi.ui.getActiveViewport(); if ( v ) v.interactiveViewChange('zoomarea');

That will trigger the area zoom on the viewport that the mouse is over.

But you can't set a shortcut just for ctrl+shift on their own, those are meant to be used as modifier keys that can be used in addition to another key.

This is great!

Even better than Ctrl+Shift and mouse area in Rhino, because here the zoom area can be precisely selected.

---

Hello.

Can we assign shortcut keys for ortho view that is work vice versa?

So if I press Ctrl+Numpad1, It will go to FULL FRONT VIEW (assume that I'm not in the Front View beforehand).
If it is already in Full Front View, then it will go to FULL BACK VIEW (the exact opposite of Front View) when I press the same shortcut.
Next, if I press the same shortcut key again, it will go to FRONT VIEW again. And so on.

This will also Works for RIGHT-LEFT and TOP-BOTTOM, with different shortcut key for each.

Hope I make myself clear in this, and please pardon my English.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

:)

Hi Elang, there are some view setting shortcut key scripts listed here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=3808.2

Are any of those close to what you want?

- Michael

---

Hi Michael

I tried the script from your link. I expect that if i tap the hotkey, the view will be change to the opposite direction from the current one.
So if it is in Front View, then tapping the same key will bring it to the Back View. Tapping it again will bring me to the Front View. And so on.

The script is not doing that for now.

Thank you.

---

Hi Elang, try these ones:

Set Top/Bottom view:

script: /* Set Top/Bottom view */ var vname = 'Top'; var vp = moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel; if ( vp.mode.toLowerCase() != vname.toLowerCase() ) { vp.mode = vname; } else { vp.mode = vname; vp.reverseView( vname ); }

Set Front/Back view:

script: /* Set Front/Back view */ var vname = 'Front'; var vp = moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel; if ( vp.mode.toLowerCase() != vname.toLowerCase() ) { vp.mode = vname; } else { vp.mode = vname; vp.reverseView( vname ); }

Set Right/Left view:

script: /* Set Right/Left view */ var vname = 'Right'; var vp = moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel; if ( vp.mode.toLowerCase() != vname.toLowerCase() ) { vp.mode = vname; } else { vp.mode = vname; vp.reverseView( vname ); }

It works, Michael.

Thank you very much!

Hi All,

I have a quick question that I hope one of you can help with:

Using much of the fine information in this thread I have sorted out most of my shortcut key wishes, however, I can't seem to find out what the shortcut key is for editing the "size" (x,y,z size dialog box) of a selected object. I probably have missed it but would one of you know what it is?

Best regards & wishing you a pleasant day!

Jesper

Scale, Scale1D, Scale2D ;)

But for that you want exactly no need shortcut it's direct! :)
