Arrays

Yes it works how it should be but when you unfreeze it it jumps to to curent pivot position/orientation.
Check this video:

Lets automate this process and delete this checkbox, can we make it works like this:
If Create Instance (Spline) is enabled and you disable Manual Pivot tool it will freez Pivot.
If Create Instance (Spline) is enabled and Pivot is freezed and you enable Manual Pivot tool, Pivot will be unfreezed and will stay on freezed position/orientation.

I don't have the pivot jumping problem in my setting. Can you send me your config an that scene file?

Sent.

I tested with your config and file but it still works fine on me. I just did something and hopefully it will be fixed.

Works! Can we automate it as I worte in previous post?

It is automated. I still keep the check box. Not every one has a gui button for the pivot tool like you do. Some may even don't know its exist.

NICE!!!

IStonia, just wanted to ask, there are 2 exactly the same splines but bended in different sides, so in first spline instances is upside down on second everything is ok.
Is it how things works, is it how it should be?



IStonia, can you pleas add option to hide that checkbox, I do not want to overload users with not used UI.
There will appear a lot of free space in UI when checkbox will be hidde, can you pleas solve it some how, to make UI lookg cool.

I think the tangent space of the two splines are different. Not much I can do about it. You can adjust the spline tangent space manually, but that would not be the best solution.

No. I think this tool's ui is quite simple already. I prefer not to add an option into the options which is overly crowded already.

Got it, IStonia may I bother you last time
We will use this Manual Pivot tool in all other Instance tools that I requested.
This checkbox break Conception of Simplicity and Intuivity of these new tools. I started this requests only to simplify things but now what we will tell users about this check box, that some times become checked sometimes uncheked I will have to write something - avoid touch it and do not pay attention to it
It looks not proffesional.
Can you pleas add Option Show alternative UI for Instance Tools. When it will turned On all this new UI will appear without this Checkbox.
I know I bother you but have no any other alternatives, so excuse me please

Or can you jusr creat tool - Create Instance (Spline, no freez option).

Edit > Preference > Options > Instance dialog pivot freeze check box visible.

Oh, many thaks!
Tool is done!

I will start to prepare request about Circular array.

For now can you pleas make these little requests about spline to improve workflow, I just got them whyle testing this new instance tool.
- Can you pleas make selected Spline to show points only in Vertex Mode?
- Now we have Spline Color - Selected. Can we also have spline color in vertex mode?
- Can you pleas make show special Vertex only on Spline Start? now there are 2 special vertexes on start and on End so it is very hard to understand were is start and were is end because of them. Having it only on start will make everything clear.

So it will look like this with that requests:

- Now we have Spline Color - Selected. Can we also have spline color in vertex mode?

What is the reason?

In non vertex mode spline will have 2 colors:
- Normal
- Selected (We can set it to be the same as Selection Color to make everything looks the same or make it different)

In vertex mode it will have another color and it can be differ form Selected Color. That is why I asked for it.

For example it will look like this - Normal Color is black, Selected color is Red(the same as Selection color) and the color of spline in vertex mode is Blue.

I still don't understand why you need another color in vertex mode?
