My bad code deleted.

They call this nitpicking:-)

Modified the text of the .html a little bit. ist = is, places = place, imputs = inputs, rebuilt = rebuild, olaces = placed, orientated = are oriented

"placed TO the rails" or "placed TO the first rail" do not sound quite right to me, but may be OK.
alternatives might be "placed on the rails or "placed along the rails..."

Also the AAABBBCCC placement description was not clear to me.
A description of the ABCABCABC placement would also be helpful.
Or even just AABBCC placement?
A specific example, say 4 objects to place, and two rails...(?)

The Sweep node has two options available by the RMB:

• One Rail
• Two Rails

One Rail:

Takes one Rail for each Sweep. The number of profiles used for each rail is defined by the whole number of profiles divided by the number of rails. The order in which the profiles are placed to the rail is defined by the switch in the infos panel. AAABBBCCC means the first, second, third, ... profile in the objectlist is placed to the first rail.

Two Rails:

Takes pairs of curves from the rail inputs and places profiles from the profiles input to them. The order in which the profiles are placed to the rail is defined by the switch in the infos panel. AAABBBCCC means the first, second, third, ... profile in the objectlist is placed to the first rail pair.

Hello Brian,

I'm very grateful for your invertigations and improvements. Feel free to change things and send me the improved html, please. There are alot of other nodes to describe.

Thank You very much!
Karsten

Ralf,

We are looking to rationalise the extension nodes, & with a view to this I have retributed your node contributions into existing submenus. Have a look at attached r2d3.js file, & let me know what you think.

Also, I was having a play with your stream2array node: icosStream.nod attached.
I posted an animation to instagram (it too big to post here, I'm running out of server allowance)
https://www.instagram.com/nodeology/

Anyway, I have noticed some anomalous behaviour. Have a look at 2nd instance of stream2array node. It is not connected to an output but rather outputs through the 1st instance of the node. Curious!

Nevertheless, I am enjoying exploring your nodes

Thanks
James

Hello Brian,

could you please test this:

 if ( document.URL.indexOf("appdata") > 0 ) { docupath = document.URL.split("index.html")[0]+"nodes\/extensions\/Documentation\/"+lang.LANGUAGE + "\/"; }
					else { docupath = document.URL.split(/moi:\/\/(.*\/).*/g)[1].replace("ui","")+"nodes\/extensions\/Documentation\/"+lang.LANGUAGE + "\/"; }

Thanks in advance!
Karsten

Hi Karsten,
This version enables the doc dropdown in both "Light" and "default Dark" versions of nodeeditor. (It looks like you added [0] to your code.)

However it also creates a "mouse scroll/zoom wheel" "Hole" at the top center of the nodeeditor screen, Light or Default version.

- Brian

Hello Brian,

I've changed to split and take the first part by [0].

The scroll wheel issue doesn't happenend here with Windows 7 64bit and MoI Beta V4. I've tested also on Windows 10 - also no Problem!?

Have a nice day
Karsten

Hi Karsten,

So far, no one else has reported having the "Hole", so ...?...

- Brian

Hi Karsten,

It seems that snaggit13 was causing the "Hole", so your latest code seems to be just fine, and enables Light and Default Dark nodeeditor, along with the ne doc dropdown.

- Brian

This world is too complicated for an old man like me.

Hi All,

Screen above lofted to fully open pattern to give variable aperture relief, mapped to a surface

Amazing James!

Great job!!

Much nicer than a recent stucco expanded metal purchase.

Hi James
for what little it is worth ..
amazing result

Thanks Al

It is worth a lot,

After 2 weeks of intermittent coding, study of many nodes, mostly by Karsten, and hundreds of corrections, a node for LineWeb was created.
There are many comments in the code, which could be removed.

In addition to the LineWeb node, a simple demo node program is attached.
Copy the LineWebNode.js file in the nodeeditor Extensions folder.
This will place the LineWeb node in the Construct2 menu.
(Construct2 could also be edited to include the LineWeb node code.) Maybe Karsten or James will do this, after the node is tested?

Testing has been minimal.
Input of other objectlist types has not be tested, nor is there any code to check for other types of objectlists.

For simple curve nodes such as Line, Circle, Star, Polygon, Curve/Interpcurve, ..., wired to an Output node, what color will the curve be drawn in?

If the Output node has "--" set for Style color, the color drawn will be the Style color currently in effect for MoI:
a. when the curve output is Wired to said Output node. And Run.
b. when the curve output is Rewired to said Output node.
c. when the node program is re-Loaded and Run.

If the Output node has a Style color set in it's Info box, that will be the color drawn, at Run, or during Run, over-riding a previously wired MoI Style color.
In the current session, Switching the Output node Style color set in it's Info box back to "--", reverts to the MoI Style color previously in effect, (even if MoI Style was changed, and there was no rewire.) (The previous wired color is "remembered" for the current MoI nodeeditor session.)
