This tool become really amazing!!! Many, many thanks!
Can you pleas invert axis so too will work like this:


So it will become absolutley simple and intuitive, now axis works in inverted way.

Can you show it in a video? I don't get it.

Can you show it in a video? I don't get it.

I just rechecked again and looks liek everything is working as expected so no need to change anything.

So lets finilize tool:

- Lets make it looks like this:


- Refference Center and Space will be set to Pivot always, no need for other options, lets keep it simple.

- Position and orientation of Pivot when tool is activated will be derived from Selection center.

Lets make this and see how things work.

Since pivot is used, you can not modify the spline while the tool is active because it will change the pivot.

-Position and orientation of Pivot when tool is activated will be derived from Selection center.

Don't understand.

Works good!

Don't understand.

Looks like now when tool is activated it uses as Refference Selection center, so if spline and objects are selected we always will get strange array result because it uses spline too, to calculate center of celection, but instead it have to use center of only selected objects without spline.
So before creating Array this tool must deselect Spline to calculate center of celection.

- When you select spline without any objects and run tool no message appears.

- IStonia is it possible to make Composite tool to wait until this tool will be finished? I want to set some actions after tool is closed.

No possible. What are the actions you want to do?

Can you pleas make this:
when you activate this tool it will save Pivot Position/Orientation and activate this built in SL tool and set that manual Pivot to Center of selection:


When you exit tool it will deactivate that SL tool and Restore Pivot Position/Orientation.

Thanks! I thing we did very nice tool!
Just one question as you said before now if you move spline points it also shift Pivot. How we can fix it? I am not sure I understood what is going on so can not generate any ideas, how do you think we can fix it? If you have no ideas, can you just explain me what is going on so I will think too.

Hay, looks like new problem appears, when I want to move spline points I disable Manula Pivot tool but after I disable it it Restore Pivot Position and Orientation. It have to restore Position and Orientation only when I close this tool.

It have to restore Position and Orientation only when I close this tool.

Why it has to stay like that?

Hay I created video to show you this problem:

Try this

1. Open the tool.
2. Adjust the pivot position.
3. Check "Freeze current pivot" option. Now the tool is using a copy of the current pivot and the pivot can be moved without affecting the array. Also the pivot sl tool is deactivated.
4. modify the spline.
5. Uncheck the "Freeze current pivot" option. The pivot sl tool is back. Now you are ready to move the pivot to adjust the array again.
