Selection To Cursor (Parent Only)
Closed, ArchivedPublicPATCH

Description

Project: Blender Extensions
Tracker: Py Scripts Upload
Blender: 2.62
Category: 3D View
Python: 3.2
Script name: Snap: Selection To Cursor (Parent Only)
Wiki page: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.5/Py/Scripts/3D_interaction/Selection_To_Cursor_PO
Author(s): Martin Bürbaum
Status: Buggy

Snap the selected object to the 3D cursor, but keep children in place.

Tracker Problem: The "Wiki page" field is to short for some URLs.
In this case i tried to use
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.5/Py/Scripts/3D_interaction/Snap_Selection_To_Cursor_Parent_Only
but that was too long.

Event Timeline

I wish Blender had a way to manipulate the coord-system of an object similar to C4D:
You basically switch into another mode and can manipulate the transformations of an object without influencing anything else.

Missing that in Blender I tried to get at least part of this functionality into Blender (re-positioning of parents, their children stay in place).

hi,
is the script working in 2.57?

Yes, at least it seems to work with the most recent code in svn (revision 36240).
Didn't try the builds for 2.57 stable though.

Hi,

Hi,
Due to changes to the api including the merging of bmesh, several addons are outdated.
Please, if you are the author of an addon check your script with blender revision 44256 or newer.
That is builds made After blender 2.62 official release.
I would ask that updates be made to your addon before the Blender 2.63 release.
6-8 weeks away.
This allows time for the api to become more exposed & bmesh to stablize furthur.
If you need help, drop into irc freenode #blenderpython or #blendercoders & feel welcome to ask questions.
At the time of 2.63 release, scripts that are not repaired or in active developement will have their tracker page marked "Closed"
this will not affect your links to the tracker, similar to closing scripts in 2.49b, the page will be still availible & can be re-opened.

Thanks for your understanding & patience during these Exciting Times.
Brendon.

hi, tested as still working but has some registration errors.

Uploaded new version with fixed registration (it was broken even with the older version of Blender).

Brendon Murphy (meta-androcto) changed the task status from Unknown Status to Unknown Status.Oct 22 2014, 4:52 AM

hi this seems outdated, I don't see any different to current snap tools, maybe it's broken.
please feel free to re-submit new patch.
