Event TimelineComment Actions Hi, thanks for the patch. Could you describe what it does, maybe add a few images? A description should be reusable as a commit message as well. I just skimmed through the code, I’ll try to have a better look at it and test it on the week-end.
Comment Actions Hi Damien thanks for the fast reply, I was looking to talk about the ideia with you in the chat and forum and people suggested to just submit the patch. This is my first time doing this, just added a description and will work to improve the code after your observations. Comment Actions After refactor of the add-on, a few additional changes were made:
Comment Actions Thanks for the description, I can see how useful this can be! There are many small things I’d like to change as to how the code is structured. I took the liberty to update the patch myself, let me know what you think. Comment Actions I think the new structure reads a lot better! Just learned a new way of doing math with python, really appreciate that. Happy to collaborate with this amazing addon! Wow very cool! I want to learn more about the gpu module and how to draw things in the viewport with the python API. Something I was thinking is perhaps avoid drawing the flat region of the surface (where z < 0) but was not capable of finding a way to do. Other idea is to add an option to create a mesh to allow easily render the surface if needed. Maybe for another patch? | |||||||||||||||||||
