Jack Helgeson Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Why Doesn't Vector Works have a option to right click on a object/line/symbol and have the dialog box appear to have the class that the item that you clicked to turn off that class. The only way to turn off class is by the navigation box or the upper Class and Layer drop down menu boxes. This would solve the having to click the object to see what class it?s on and then go and find the class to deselect it from the drop down menu or Navigation box. Anyone have a plug-in tool for this or Vector Script? Blackjack Quote Link to comment
Kevin McAllister Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Use the Visibility tool. It looks like an eye next to a small pointer. It can be set to turn off either layers or classes. KM Quote Link to comment
Jack Helgeson Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 Very cool! To bad we are still on 12.5.3. I was looking for the Visibility tool on the new version to import to see if it will work put I can't find the plug-in at all in the plug-in folder called Visibility. We have one copy of the new version so it doesn't do me any good since I'm on and older mac. Thank you Kevin Quote Link to comment
gmm18 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Attached is a plug-in "Class Invisible" You can add this to your workspace and assign to context-click. Here is the script: { maarten '08 } PROCEDURE ClassInvisible; VAR h : HANDLE; ClassName : STRING; BEGIN h:=LSActLayer; ClassName:=GetClass(h); HideClass(ClassName); END; RUN(ClassInvisible); Quote Link to comment
mmiles Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Sorry if I ask an elementary question, but how do you add this to a workspace? I attempted to place this file in the application plug-ins folder, but when I launch VW (2008) and open the vector script plug-in editor it does not appear in the list. Further to that, how do I assign the plug-in to the context menu? thanks. Quote Link to comment
