Hello everyone,
I am trying to use the Duplicate_Tool command in COFFEE to duplicate a target Cube object and make 8 copies. Together with this process, I want to arrange the Cube copies in Circle mode. I tried to check in toolduplicate.h to check if I am allowed to do that but I am redirected to _toolarrange.h. _I tried using the following code which is activated by a button on my plugin dialog. The Duplicate_Tool works fine giving me 8 copies of the Cube object, but I cannot seem to get the Circle mode working. I tried using SendModelingCommand(ID_MODELING_ARRANGE_TOOL,...) as well but it does not work. Here's the code:
oObject::fNewObject(vDoc)
{
var obj = vDoc->FindObject("Cube");
var bc = new(BaseContainer);
bc->SetData(MDATA_DUPLICATE_COPIES, 8);
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_MODE_CIRCLE, true);
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_START, 0 );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_END, 360 );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_RADIUS,500 );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_USE_MOVE, true );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_USE_MOVE_X, true);
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_USE_MOVE_Y, true);
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_USE_MOVE_Y, true);
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_ALIGNTANGENTIAL, true );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_USE_ROTATION, true );
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_MOVE,vector(0,0,0));
bc->SetData(MDATA_ARRANGE_CIRCLE_ROTATION, vector(0,0,0));
var result = SendModelingCommand(ID_MODELING_DUPLICATE_TOOL,vDoc,obj,bc,MODIFY_ALL);
EventAdd();
vDoc->Message(MSG_UPDATE);
vDoc->Message(DOCUMENT_CHANGED);
return TRUE;
}I would appreciate if someone could help me. Look forward to learn from everyone.
Thank you very much.
best regards,
