#New tool in detail edito
22 messages in this thread
Impulse,
I LOVE IM30 (sorry about yelling <g>).
I am desiging an object and have come to the conclusion that my work would be
made much easier by the addition of another aspect to magnetism. The point
that I wish to drag using magnetism to not lend themselves to a circular
pattern which cone, dome and bell are. It would be great and save me having to
move each point if you could turn an object into a magnet and then use that
object to drag points magnetically of another object. It does not seem like
this would be that difficult. Just make a temporary object (or tool) in the
detail editor (the user would make this 'tool' object) and then give it the
same types of magnetic properties that you do in magnetism setup except for the
shape and then as you drag this tool, the points of the object being affected
that are within the 'influence' of the points of the tool move.
Thanks for the ear and double thanks for the great product!!!

Tony,
Soon we will have a complete SPLINE editor, you will love it.
Have fun.

That would be great! You mean like spline modeling and the stuff?
ANdrey
Yep!

Is there anyone out there that has received the Amiga version of Imagine
3.0? It seems that the loyal Amiga users are going to be the last to
receive it? All the posts I see are from PC users.. 🙁

It does seem that not all loyal Amiga users are on CIS, many have
gotten it and I am sure that soon you will be in receipt of the software as
well. The final bunch of them went out on Friday, so by Monday you should have
yours as well.
Mike
Happy Happy Joy Joy. Hope it comes later today but Monday is fine as
wine.
Peter,
Got my 3.0 today! Na, na, na na na. . . 😉
BTW If you have not already done so check out FORGE.LHA. It's a
description of Steve Worley's new program. EXCELLENT! I'm ordering mine
Monday!

Grrrr. Hulk SMASH!!! 😉 I've seen the press release for Forge. Looks VERY
interesting. So how do you like 3.0????? I hope mine comes SOON! I'm going
Crackers, espescially now that I'm trying to use IM R/T's MELT function in
a Arexx script to make a Title look like its dripping blood. I can do it
by hand but would rather not as it's pretty tedious. Hopefully Ben will
have a workaround for me to somewhat automate things.
Peter,
I have mixed emotions. There's a whole lot of neat new stuff, and I
want to jump in and start playing, but it also represents a big homework
assignment. There's a great deal of new stuff to learn!

Well hopefully we'll enjoy 3.0. BTW as I'd hoped, Ben came thru with the
MELT workaround
You were correct! I received it on Saturday, thanks. Now to dig into the
manual.
Thanks again,

I'm with you. A loyal amiga owner waiting anxiously for 3.0.

No Imagine 3.0 here in Brooklyn. I've got both versions coming. The Nixon
Holiday probably slowed things a bit too tho. Heres hoping our packages
arrive SOON.
I received mine on Saturday.

Congrats, Still no 3.0 here at Midgard. I guess Monday or Tuesday it will
appear.

Soon? <vbg>

Dave,
The Spline editor is the first big improvement for the next release
(3.5?). Apparently, it is needed for the Object Digitizer to work, but they
won't actually start working on it for a few weeks, so it'll be a little while.
If you don't have 3.0 yet, there is a new deform tool for doing free-form
deformation type modelling that helps create freeform surfaces.
-Steve
Mike,
That is great news!! The type of magnet tool I mentioned would still be
usefull, though, for editing objects I already have.
Thanks,
Tony
Tony,
I like your suggestion. Have you tried the new deform tool? I only
ask because its not really advertised (though it is documented), and is often
confused with Deformations/Conformations. The deform tool is wonderous when it
comes to altering the geometry of an object.
-Steve
Steve,
I think I dabled with it once. Thanks for the suggestion, it may do what I
want. I will have to look at it again.
Thanks,
tony
