how would it be possible for me to create a little popover form that allowed me to create/remove/edit and select selection sets?

like, take the "By Selection Sets" part from the Element Details->Statistics-> By Selection Sets and make a menu such as the Action Center one, or a little Containter like the Meshlist ?

would i need to do some perl programming, like:

(pseudo code)

fetch the selection sets
show the selection sets
add selection to selection set

.. etc etc?

also, is it possible to assign an icon to a popver menu?

Unfortunately, no, select.useSet cannot currently be used to create a popup in a form.

A perl script would also not be able to do this; at this point in time, scripts are really just macros with flow control.

Currently, no, forms cannot have icons assigned to them.

ok, thanks for the input/reply, i almost had a perfect layout setup goin.. but ill have to change it around a little bit :)

do you know if and when u might possibly be implementing such features?


in the mean time.. i think ill setup my nostromo n52 to the modo hotkeys so i can get to them faster :)


hopefully this will eliminate some un-necessary buttons/interface clutter
