Changeable DisplayInfo Rocks! 2004-07-14 - By Dan Yargici
Back
I've been slowly working my way through the new features guide and have
discovered many hidden treasures :)
But the ability to change parameters in the viewport seems like a tiny, but
fantastic addition. Check it out:
NewScene
CreatePrim "Torus", "MeshSurface"
AddProp "Custom_parameter_list", , , "DisplayInfo Torus Radius"
SelectObj "torus.DisplayInfo_Torus_Radius"
AddProxyParam , "torus.polymsh.geom.torus.sectionradius,torus.polymsh.geom
.torus.radius"
SelectObj "torus"
DeselectAll
SetValue "Camera.camvis.custominfo", True
SetValue "preferences.Display.displayinfoedit", True
SetValue "preferences.Display.font", "ariel"
SelectObj "torus", , True
Now click on the numbers in the viewport and slide away! I don't know about
you, but I'm gonna be using this a lot. Much cleaner way of working with
Custom Psets.
