Hello,
I published an updated version of my Xgs_Slate tool for Win32 on XSI Net : http
://www.softimage.com/xsinet/ ( look under "add-ons" or search for "Xgs_Slate" ).
The archive also contains the project source code ( see 040626_Xgs_Slate
_Project.zip ).
Installation :
* download archive ( 040626_Xgs_Slate_All.zip )
* extract "040626_Xgs_Slate.xsiaddon"
* launch XSI 4.0
* install the Addon ( User, Factory, Workgroup, as you wish )
* restart XSI
* File > Preferences > Custom : you can see a "Xgs_Slate" custom property on
the scene root
* open the Xgs_Slate custom property page
* enable the "Active" toggle : you should see information displayed in the 3D
views
Notes :
* the camera info was not displayed properly when parented under a Model ; this
was fixed
* the plugin is now using a "custom preference" instead of a "custom property
under the scene root" - this change is documented in the included source code,
along with explanations to design your custom property, make a custom
preference preset and change your code to use a custom preference preset
instead ( this is exposed as a #define compilation swtich, allowing you to
easily toggle between both methods ).
Enjoy !
