Add substitute part from context menu

[Victor Di Rienzo]

some days ago i asked trevor to add this to lpub3d now it will be available on 2.3.12 version of lpub3d



Subject
Add an option when you right click on the PLI "brick" to add Substitute part, with a dialogue to also change color, scale, camara angels etc.
The aim is to automate the following manually entered meta commands:

Code:

0 !LPUB PLI BEGIN SUB 20844c01.dat 15
0 !LPUB PART BEGIN IGN
1 15 -160 -24 20 0 0 1 0 1 0 -1 0 0 powerfunc2distsens-1.ldr
0 !LPUB PLI END
0 !LPUB PART END

Environment
Version of LPub3D - 2.3.12
Operating system - All
Solution
Insert, update or remove part substitution meta commands via the PLI part context menu (right-click) with a dialogue to configure the following:
Primary Arguments:

• Part type,
  
• Part colour,
  

Extended Arguments:

• Scale
  
• Field of View
  
• Camera angle latitude
  
• Camera angle longitude
  
• Part rotation - Using ROTSTEP arguments
  

NOTE: Extended Arguments are disabled when LDView 'Single Call' render option is enabled. As this option processes multiple part model files simultaneously (i.e. on a single command call), it is not currently possible to individually apply the extended arguments to each part.

OK, this is a very nice feature. When will 2.3.12 be available?

I am waiting for another bug that is fixed ;-)

OK, I tested the PLI part substitution and everything works up until I hit OK. Then LPub3D crashes.
I will report to Trevor on GitHub.

Jaco, this behaviour has already been corrected. See Segfault in substitute part dialog #294.

To respond to tickets faster, I’ve added a Continuous Build pre-release to the production repository.

You can download a latest build for Windows (installed and portable distros), Linux AppImage, Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora and macOS.

On the LPub3D GitHub Page, you can check the existence of a continuous build pre-release if the Revision badge is greater than 0. You can also see the list of latest commits (i.e. corrections) from the Last Commit badge.

Cheers,

Ah yes, OK. I wanted to report it, but found the 294 ticket.
I will download a new build to check it out.
