someone know whats up with the status of this add-on ? maybe the dev is famous here ? is it a dead add-on ?
if it is i want to shine a light on his work, maybe someone will want to update it for 2.8
The name is funny , i understand russian.Script makes a good job. I got it to work in 2.8, just changed 2.79 to (2, 80, 0) in script file. It works, but shows some errors in console. Would be nice if someone who can code would make clean port.
It would be possible to make a script that use of operators like select “edge rings”, “edge loops” and “checker deselect”, all of them (un)checkable from the F6 menu, with the addition of a quantity bar for this shrink/grow selection addon? Peraphs even adding the ‘select sharp edges’ operator.
We could name it “Edge Final Selector”.
(-Note: if ‘checker delesect’ and ‘edge loops’ are both checked, the former one must run before the latter to avoid funky selection behaviour)
I noticed the same issue as #1 that you commented. #2 hasn’t happened to me yet.
All in all though this is a terrific addon so thank you Titus for porting it! (I swear, like half of my installed add-ons are ones you’ve made or touched, lol)
This also occurs for me, it happens when you grow and shrink afterwards. The addon doesn’t seem to cycle though continuous shrink/grow operations for rings well. It would be really cool if someone could fix this as it is one of those key features missing in Blender compared to 3ds Max.
@TitusLVR I noticed the same erroneous behaviour in iOPS, so I presume you’ve used the same code there as well.
E: Here’s a gif to show the bug, if you shrink a ring, it happens unevenly and when shrunk down to the original edge, you cannot expand it. https://i.imgur.com/atAInpG.mp4
@TitusLVR checking back on this thread to see whether you’ve been able to identify what causes the bugs. Would you like me to open an issue on Github for this?
Hi, I filed two issues on the Zaloopok Github page, in the hopes of finding someone to fix the bug for shrinking edge loops and for a feature request to allow customising the panel’s name for the N-panel within the addon’s preferences.
When I tested Loopanar, the addon Zaloopok is supposedly based on, the bug already appears to be present there.
Maybe there’s something useful within the latest Machinetools for selections that could be employed one way or another?
