Summary | 0015836: Plot over line quirks | ||||||||
Description | Entering this during the PV tutorial at SC15 ;-) I made a remark about the first point during the session, but figured the other points might also be useful to suggest. - The line widget is not visible when the view in which it is defined is not active. This makes it a bit tricky to relate the plot to the actual line set in the 3D scene. - Using the P key to place the line widget endpoints is very useful, but might be more powerful if you could pick one of the endpoint and then press P to place it. Currently it seems to pick one of the endpoints to place at random, sets it at the intersected location, and when pressing P again the other endpoint is placed. - It is hard to comprehend which widget endpoint corresponds to what axis endpoint in the plot. I.e. if you would interchange the widget endpoints the widget representation would still be visually the same, but the plot will have mirrored along the X axis - When moving a widget endpoint restrict the translation to the x/y/z axis with the x/y/z key, just like in 3D interaction (great new feature btw!) | ||||||||

Thanks Paul, great ideas. Modifying the request (slightly): * Leave the line tool on in the 3d view no matter what view is selected. Allow the user to turn this off, for instance if the user wants to take a screenshot. For screenshots, if there is a line tool (or plane tool) across the view, explicitly ask the user if it should be turned off. * The confusion here comes from not realizing - or being able to recognize - that the line tool has a front and back. Hitting the P key toggles between the ends. Please change the line tool to look like an arrow, with a cone at the front and back, both pointing the same direction. * Fabulous idea regarding limiting movement of the end points or whole line to the X, Y or Z direction! Lets do this! Alan |
