Have you ever wanted to control a widget directly in the viewport and have it drive your Grasshopper model? The Rhino Work-In-Progress includes two new components in the Transform tab: Curve Widget Angular Widget [OffsetCurve_01] What are these widgets? Curve Widget The new Curve Widget compone…

[image] Andy Payne: [image] Intuos: I would draw the widget on the last selected item and store its settings with User Text Attributes You can actually store all of the states of the sliders on a widget component using the Save State/Restore State functionality. […] That should make stori…

[image] Andy Payne: [image] Jakub Czajczynski: it would be nice if the Angle Widget could also accept a list of values This would be tricky (in it’s current configuration). In it’s current setup, these widgets work much like a slider and a slider only ever has a single value. So, enabling…

[image] Andy Payne: I do have some ideas about a class of HUD elements that could be displayed… but that’s a much bigger topic and not something we plan to focus on for this WIP. It could definitely be added to the wish list for future WIPs though. If this would include a horizontal coloured …

Hmm. That definitely looks like a bug. I’ll investigate. Thanks for reporting this. One thing that’s odd to me when watching your video is that when you click to “Save State” for state number 4, the curve and domain inputs are empty. So, when the state gets saved, the domain is likely empty or null …

Yes and the idea is that when a curve is saved with the slider info in user text, it can be referenced in another file or another version of a definition and a slider widget can be fed with a saved position.

[image] Andy Payne: Regarding adding Names to the viewport display. I did think of this, but I wasn’t sure where these name should be displayed. Always to the left? Always centered and below the curve? It seemed really tricky to get the display location correct. The most obvious solution would b…

I’d also like to join the calls for the ability to inject a widget’s initial settings. The reasons are the same. Using the Content Cache, you could return to created elements, display their current settings, and modify them via the widget. This information would need to be assigned to the object som…

This is a wonderful addition! Please consider a setup option to disable previewing the full domain from sliders and only display a part that is below the set value. In some cases this will work better - but by default it’s good as it is. I hope this thing will be further developed. It’s awesome. …

@AndyPayne Can you please consider to add just plain input text field widget, and button/toggle widget ? There would be so many scenarios to interact with objects from gh, rename, set user text, set height etc
