Auto Mirror EX

Coding Released Scripts and Themes
21

I thought this was merged into Blender and in a 2.81 nightly build I only find 2.52???

22

Oops 
 Sorry.
It seemed that the gumroad wasn’t saved properly.
I uploaded it again, so check the “mesh_auto_mirror_2-8_ver2-7” file.

23

I currently support the version branched from the built-in add-on.

Time series

  1. In Blender ~2.79 - There was AutoMirror addon by Lapineige.
  2. In Blender 2.80a - Lapineige was not supported
  3. In Blender 2.80a - I supported
  4. In Blender 2.80 - The version I supported has been merged into the built-in add-on

Now
Added functions version is supported on gumroad.
It is not yet merge with the built-in add-on.

Thanks for pointing this out as somehow I had it in my mind that updates were now only available in the builds and not at Gumroad. Updated and happy.

Hi,
Useful addon thanks a lot! What do think about something like this ?

To me, that sounds like a good idea on first thought as it saves one click, but there are several drawbacks:

  • There is always an axis selected, even before using it : you can’t easily guess that you need to click on “X” to apply the mirror.
  • On first use, it can be very confusing to select an axis (probably the first action you do), and see something happening
 and in fact, “Toggle Edit” is not activated by default (and I don’t think it’s a good idea), which means you don’t even see something happening
 which will probably result in some frustrating consequences on your model.
  • It doesn’t “split” the buttons between “options” and “action” buttons. It’s unclear whereas you click on some button and it will do something, or not.

That said, I think adding a “-X / -Y / -Z axis” row is very good. It would save one click for some action, and maybe make it clearer (or just the same as right now).

Thanks for your feedback :slightly_smiling_face:

Improved menu

2019-09-30_02h23_25
2019-09-30_02h23_251175×751 284 KB

Added

■ Added “Quick Axis” button

Changed

Boxed options and added some explanations.
The menu has been changed so that mirrors can be used for objects other than mesh objects.

■ Changed to disable keymap registration by default

Added support for users who do not require keymap registration.
Users who need keymap registration should enable the checkbox in the add-on settings.

Bug fixes

■ Fixed to the internal name of the “Use Clip” option was not correct

This change will initialize the state of the “Use Clip” option in the existing project file.

The part pointed out in ver2.7.1 was changed.
As lapineige pointed out, it was difficult to distinguish between options, so we covered the option item and left the previous button.
We adopted the buttons for the positive and negative options because it seemed reasonable.
Thank you for your opinion.

Thank you! Realy nice improvements.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply
 Thank you for your work, it’s a good point to have now direct access to positive and negative instead of dropdown! Not sure about the new design because it takes more vertical space but that’s not a big deal:

Hi.

I noticed that the addon (addon version 2.9.0 with blender-2.83-dc3f073d1c52-windows64) generates a warning in the console:

ValueError: bpy_struct “AUTOMIRROR_OT_mirror_mirror” doesn’t support datablock properties

ver2.9.4 Updated

Fixed Auto Mirror operator.

  • Fixed an issue where the X / Y / Z axis options in the Options menu were not reflected.
  • Fixed the problem that the vertex moves to the 0 position of the axis in the case of Y / Z in the cut option on the opposite side.
  • Known bug: There is a known bug that if you change the post-configuration option after running in edit mode, an additional mirror modifier will be created each time you switch options.
  • Internally, I removed the old ‘axis’ option (currently axis_x etc. are used).
