The polygon is drawn by Bezier curve.
However, it is not a custom polygon.

This is an incomplete plug-in. :)
The curve command of the polygon type is not mounted.

[4dartist]

That looks really nice. Lots of control. I wish motion curves in graph editor worked like that lol. Nice job.

[HoMe]

hi Pictrix,
that rocks..... :bowdown:

i hope you add the function to change the segments for any anchor independently.

Thank you. :)

Can independently set the segment between nodes one of these days.

[GregMalick]

Amazing Excellent work. :thumbsup:

I also vote for independent segment counts per anchor. :D

hi Pictrix,

can you make those snap?

hi Pictrix,

can you make that the bezier has an equal segment size?

Aloha GregMalick ,
It has understood.
It is possible to make the segment seen to be uniform between all Knot. :)

Hi HoMe ,
The control handle is snaped to another vertex.
Moreover, it is CTRL+LMB drug to limit the direction of the control handle, and to move.
However, it the snap and stripes corks it to another control handle.

can you make that the bezier has an equal segment size?
The segment concentrates on that when there is no control in Knot.
This is like the feature of the Bezier curve.
Putting the control becomes a natural curve from both Knot.
It might be possible to make the size of the segment distance the same.
1000 times calculate are put to CPU.
It only has to make such a code. :D

The curve of the polygon type was mounted.
The segment between anchors can be independently set.
Uniformly segment was added.
This applies the segment distance between the longest nodes to other segment distances.
Externals become becoming the same.
However, there is a thing that the number of segments decreases too much
between nodes of a short distance.
The lowest number of segments is guaranteed with Minimum segment.

hi Pictrix,

can you make a function where you can switch the guidelines on/off. in some cases they overlay over the geometry and then it´s hard to see the flow of the bezier.

For instance, do you think that what method exists?
Simply, is it on/off of the display of the guideline?

[Simon]

Another excellent plugin, thanks a lot!!

You have a rather unfortunate typo on the numeric panel though, I think it should say 'custom segment' !

[HoMe]

hi Pictrix,
what you think about a mirror function from the first and last anchor... that is great for symmetry shapes.

HoMe

[mikadit]

An ather great plugin,
thank you PICTRIX!

Domo arigato gozaimasu :) :thumbsup:

Another awesome plug Mr Pictrix.

[PICTRIX]

Good morning all.

OH !:D :bangwall:

The symmetry might be necessary.
I want a lot of functions for control handle.
Length is made the same. The direction is arranged. etc..etc..:)

There is a severe request that read the edge of the selection polygon from HoMe. :D :D :D

There is no key that can be used.
At least, I think that it liberates the number key. :(

I'm very happy to see a Mac UB of this plugin. I keep my fingers crossed that we will see UB's of many more of Pictrix's awesome tools.

Hi ,
Does the UB version operate?
Because my Mac is Intel, it is not a confirmation with PPC-Mac.

Can the confirmation with PPC-Mac do someone?

Hi ,
The updated time cannot be taken.
The guideline was made a thing made an always thin dotted line. :)

Hi ,
As for the compilation of the LW7.5-9.x version of Mac, it is scheduled to do soon.
Please wait. :)

Just tested this plugin with LW9.3 UB on a old 500mhz G4, seemed to run OK.

Mr. Pictrix does it again.
Soon I will need to make a new tab just to hold your plugins.
Your tools are innovative, but also your interface w/the snapping and multi-functionality is thoughtfully designed. Since you are running out of keyboard modifiers, maybe NT could consider giving you access to the context menu.
Thanks much.

[HoMe]

hi Pictrix,
when you use a background "curve" for polift you need 2 point polys. can you add a "2p Poly" button in the bezier tool....

HoMe

[Simon]

That's what the bezier option "Polygon type - Line" does, creates 2 point poly chains, you can put them in the BG layer for PO lift.

No problem. :) The two plugins work very well together for making bevel profiles.

yeah the dottet lines are cool :D


in some cases the polygon flips... look here :

isn´t that cool i am quote my own post....

i see you have a flip function with the right mousebutton....

----

when you create some handles add a new one in the middle of a bezier then jumps the new handle to the start or end from a bezier. when you click the add button from the menu he creats one in the middle of the bezier.

Hi noiseboy ,
Thank you for trying.

Since you are running out of keyboard modifiers, maybe NT could consider giving you access to the context menu.
Hi PixelFarmer ,
I seem to have to research the "context menu".
I become painful the head.
Thank you.

Hi HoMe ,
The Add button is a command that adds a new anchor between anchors.
The anchor of the start of the segment that wants to be added is
selected and executed.
It is decided that it starts in order of the row of vertex.
When flip is done with CTRL-RMB, the order of the row is reversed.
I think the addition between starting points that Add is done as the final anchor.

Thank you Simon.

It was told that there was a wrong spelling in HELP from HoMe.
brank > blank :D

[Andy Webb]

Hi PICTRIX you have produced some excellent plugins.

I know this has been asked in the past but it would be excellent if you could get some of your plugins compiled for 64 bit use.

While I do run 32 and 64 bit LW, it's a real pain having to keep swapping between the two just to use a plugin.

Thanks

[ANS]

I'm with Andy. I also use 64 and 32 bit versions of LW, and lack of 64 bit versions of plugins is a real pain. Pictrix, please- compile 64 bit versions!

Thanks!

[Andy Webb]

Now only if I could edit curves after they are made.

:agree:

Yes this would be a major step forward :D

[nemac4]

Thank you Pictrix!

I would like to have 64bit version of all of your plugs.
Especially spmove.
I do a lot of print renders which require the extra ram available in 64bit windows

Hi ,

update to 008.

Px_Bezier win32 (http://www.pictrix.jp/lw/Px_Bezier/Px_Bezier-008.zip)

Px_Bezier UB (http://www.pictrix.jp/lw/Px_Bezier/Px_Bezier-008UB.zip)

The making command was added.
The part of the improvement remains still. :D

"Tube" makes the tube.
The radius and the segment are specified.

"Extrude" makes the tube referring to the polygon of the FG layer.
The template polygon is put on the X-Y plane.
It is good anywhere.
In Z coordinates, 0 is bases.
The number of outer points of one polygon groups is up to 360.
The number of polygon groups is not limited.

The cap is not covered.
UV is not made.
It is because of the desire as it is possible to make it with another plug-in. :D

kanarazu de-ta wo hozon site kara asonde kudasai !
Good-bye.

Hi Wickster :D Are not 64 bits it and I'm sorry..and..
Hi kosmodave :D LW is not thrown away.

It neglected to call.
009 is being developed. It is likely to become happy a little more.

Good night.

Welcome back, pictrix! I was worried that you might don't make Lightwave plugins anymore cos you haven't make another lightwave for a while but now i'm glad that you are back :) Thanks for the update! :thumbsup:

[jwiede]

Hooray! Pictrix-san is back!

Thank you much for the Bezier update!

[Wickster]

Just saw the videos of the latest update on PICTRIX's blog. Looks awesome! :thumbsup:
Anybody want to help him convert his plug-ins to 64bit? Please contact him. :)

[Lewis]

Excellent stuff Pictrix, thanks for update it's really nice addition.

BTW one thing i noticed in dome of your plugins is that you call Subpatches "SubPutch" ? Is that intentional or typo ? It should be subpAtch not subpUtch ;).

Also if i may suggest feature for Twisting tube or any other is to allow Twist to work in degrees instead relative numbers (number of spins as it's now only allow 1,2,3....) would be better to be able to twist only by 15 degrees or any other degree.

cheers

Hi Lewis , It is called, "Subputch" in here Kasuga-cho where I live. :D
Let's make it to "Subpatch" because there is no other way. :) thank you.
It and the twist setting value were made a real number.
It is 180 degrees by 0.5.

It updated it to 014.
Other functions have published the movie in my web.

Thank you for the very nice update PICTRIX. :thumbsup:
