border points of a polygon cluster 2004-06-17 - By Guy Rabiller
Back
Hello,
we finaly did a compiled version wich is attached to this e-mail ( 9Ko )
as we think it is a usefull feature in association with the contour
stretch functionality ( when you have to disconnect edge, apply unique
uvs, then reconnect ). Just put the dll in one of your Plugins folder.
You can select boundary of any type ( point/edge/poly ) from any type of
clusters ( point/edge/poly ) except for samples.
It doesn't work from SubComponent selection yet, only from Clusters.
The tool is accessible from the Explorer, if you right click on a
Cluster you will see a 'Select Boundary' menu option, or from a Cluster
contextual menu in a viewport.
This is just a 'little' tool wich we found missing from XSI, and are
planning to update it sooner or later with additional features.
Feel free to use and give feedback about ergonomy and performances.
Thanks.
