Object Dialog Input |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Pressing this button, will open a dialog input box for the Object modes Toolbar item currently in use. Not all objects will use the same dialog input box. Which ever object button is active at the time this button is clicked, will produce that objects dialog input box. If a particular object has its own dialog then that objects name will appear in the title. Other wise the standard Object Distortion Dialog will be used for all other objects. |
Sphere |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick sphere maker: After you click this button, you can draw spheres on the map with the left mouse button and each sphere will be turned into an actual poly. Move the mouse forward to add more faces, backwards for fewer faces, right to make it larger and left to make it smaller. Because the Sphere object is a far more complicated item to compute, creating it will take longer then the other objects as the number of faces it is given increases. Although it can 'freeze' the program for a period of time for processing, it will return the object and become active again. When making the Sphere hollow, built in alert messages will be displayed when specific plat toes are reached to make the user aware of the processing time that will be involved to create it and give them the option to continue or cancel this object all together. Increasing the amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will increase its height, making it more elongated. |
Pyramid\Cone |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick pyramid-cone maker: After you click this button, you can draw pyramids-cones on the map with the LMB and each object will be turned into an actual poly. The more sides that are added the more it becomes a cone shape. Once the object has been created you might have to use the special vertex movement function to stretch or reduce its size by dragging its top point common vertex. To use this function simply hold down the ' n ' HotKey when you select, drag and release the LMB. For some reason, you only need to do this the first time the common vertex is dragged. Afterwards the vertex can be moved correctly, without using the special function, in the normal manner of just holding the cursor over the vertex, pressing the LMB and dragging it. Using the special function above without actually dragging the vertex will also create the same results. Increasing the amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will increase its height. |
Double-Cone |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick double-cone maker: After you click this button, you can draw double-cones on the map with the LMB. Each double-cone will be turned into an actual poly. The more sides that are added the more it becomes a double-cone shape. Increasing the amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will increase its height. |
Cylinder |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick cylinder maker: Clicking this button allows you to draw cylinders on the map with the left mouse button and each cylinder will be turned into an actual poly. This can make angled sides or a more curved style cylinder by adding more faces. Increasing the amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will increase its height. |
Dome |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick dome maker: Clicking this button allows you to draw domes on the map with the LMB and each dome will be turned into an actual poly. Move the mouse forward to add more faces, backwards for fewer faces, right to make it larger and left to make it smaller. The amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will be the number of sections to create the top, dome, curved part. |
Fan |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick fan maker: Clicking this button allows you to draw fans on the map with the left mouse button and each fan will be turned into an actual poly. Move the mouse forward to add more faces, backwards for fewer faces, right to make it larger and left to make it smaller. Increasing the amount of its Object Distortion Dialog will increase its height. |
Torus |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
Quick torus maker: After you click this button, you can draw a torus group on the map with the left mouse button and each torus will be turned into a group of polys. Move the mouse forward to add more faces, backwards for fewer faces, right to make it larger and left to make it smaller. This particular object maker has its own Dialog Input Box because of the many different shapes that can be obtained when using a torus object. |
Dialog boxes |
cdunde - 05 Apr 2018 | [ Top ] |
At this time there are two dialog input boxes for the QuArK Quick Object Makers Toolbar that are linked to the Object Dialog Input button.
