BevelMan v0.2 implements a new Setup utility which gives instant and interactive control over various aspects of the gizmo placement, size, color, menu items etc.
*Turn Gizmo on/off - when off, it will never appear, even when in Manipulate SO mode in EPoly object. When on, will behave as before.
*Gizmo Offset - lets you put the gizmo above the face to avoid probelms when using move/rotate/scale gizmos at the same time.
*Extrude Gizmo (Ball) size - 4 modes!
-Relative to Face Diagonal (this was the old default).
-Relative to the Outline Gizmo size - this is the new and (pretty cool) default.
-Relative to total Object Size - this is similar to the way Magmapulators were scaled. Good when working with differently sized objects.
-Absolute constant size in world units.
*Menu Items position - by a strange coincidence, the Sugar Babes happened to sing Round-Round-Baby-Round-Round on MTV at the moment I wrote this feature! :) Lets you slide the menu around the gizmo and change the spacing between items.
*Gizmo colors
*All settings are persistent and saved to disk whenever changed.
*When max starts, it will load the settings from disk. Any max scene will be saved with the BevelMan preferences.
*When a max scene opens, it could bring its own persistent settings from an older session. To overwrite with the current defaults, just open the Setup utlity.
*When a single polygon is selected, the Normal options will not be displayed as they are relevant only when two or more polygons are selected.
To install, you should place the script into your \Plugins directory! Remove BevelMan v0.1 from wherever it is first!!!
To use the Setup utility, customize a toolbar by dragging "BevelManSetup" from "Bobo_s Tools" category.
