menu command problem with object by criteria SET=TRUE

[Etienne Azambre]

Hi everyone,
This topic has probably been discussed before, but here’s my issue: when I turn my Marionette network into a menu command and use the "Input Object by Criteria" node with "SEL=TRUE", I select the objects I want to process in my drawing and then run the menu command — the tool works, but it ends up targeting other objects as well! Ca you help me please ? this examples is to rotate 90° group individualy and it works as a network but not as a menu command.

example rotate.vwx

SEL = TRUE can be a dangerous criteria because there can be objects that are Selected but not Visible to the user (on a hidden layer, invisible class, inside s symbol, etc.)

 

Try changing the criteria to VSEL = TRUE which should only return the Visible Selected objects.l

Hello,

 

i just tested the criteria node with VSEL = TRUE and it does not work as expected within a menu command that was created via a Marionette Network. It seems like it does not find any objects at all.

Hello Thx Pat and Letti 🙂 but yes Letti VSEL=TRUE does't work for me too 😞

There have been issues with this workflow before, I don't see any recent bugs reported against it, but I will file something with this bug to get it back in the eyes of the engineers. Thanks!

I have been using a workaround to get object selection to work via menu commands. it still has an issue, that it will not run correctly when inside groups.
