quickinset

[geoath]

for a reason i can't find i can't make it work..
after installation:
-i go to the plugin manager>pmQuickExtrude(addon)>Plugins and the icon before the name of the tool has a red triangle.

-also i noticed after the icon, it writes pmQuickExtrude.dll shouldn't it write the name of the plugin?.
when i right click on the pmQuickExtrude.dll and choose properties i get a message : library not found" with the instalation path..
any idea what might be wrong?
si2012, win7/64bit

ps: the previous edition of the tool (the quick inset one) worked fine..

Hi, red triangle means for some reason dll was not loaded.
I compiled the x64 bin against 2012 SAP libraries.
Probably I should link with 2012 libs...anyone with 2012 non-SAP x64 can confirm it's not working?

Working fine here. SI SP1 64bit, win 7.

Testing ground. What a nice, powerful tool.

Thanks memag
well due to my limited knowledge of c++ voodoo I can recommend only installing vs2010 redist. http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/de ... x?id=14632

thanks, I'll try it!

YES, PROBLEM SOLVED
Thanks a lot origin, both for the solution and the great tool!

This tool ROCKS!!! Great work!!!

Is there some trick to getting this to work with keyboard mapping? I mapped it and it does nothing...

[jamnique]

Just WOW! This is one amazing tool. Feels so organic and intuitive. Hats off and thank you for sharing it.

When the left icon is clicked and it says "extrude along axes", it should extrude along XYZ, right? Doesn't really work for me. It always extrudes along normal.

Can anyone confirm this?

[Memag]

I think it doesn't work here either.
Is it possible to "remember" the button state, like tweak tool does?

[origin]

memag: yes it's possible. I had to disable this feature until I rewrite some parts of code.

Axis in 'E.A.A' means local component's axis (by default set to Y axis)

extruding along other axes is practically useless (you can hit enter after extrusion, or inspect OP and play with options to see difference)

I think the only difference you will see between these 2 modes is when you extrude group of polygons. extrusion along normal extrudes each component along it's own normal, while e.a.a. will 'averange' normals of selected polygons so extrusion will go in only one direction.

[Memag]

Okay, thanks Piotrek.
Do you think you can pull out "orient" polygon option (LMB+MMB?), like in this video?


I will totally understand if you choose to ignore me.

Interesting...will see ;)
meanwhile you can use sticky keys (transform tool in this example) to move polys around while quickextruding

Axis in 'E.A.A' means local component's axis (by default set to Y axis)

Ok, I assumed it somehow recognizes the direction im dragging and selects the right axes. Heres what i thought to achieve:

Note: the first is tweak tool. It kinda works but its very unpredictable and unpractical...

Man, awesome plugin. I got one question tho.

Would it be possible to have the tool work w/o having to click on your selection? So just by holding the ex. supra key, you could extrude/bevel the current selection. Sometimes very easy to missclick an edge instead of poly (ex. with small selections).

Once again, killer work.

[Memag]

The tools in the video, I posted above, do just that.
Clicking and dragging outside of selection performs the operation ,if you hold the key that is.
Would be cool to see it in quickExtrude.

no problem
memag, what's the software you used in this video?
