the current settings like optimisation do never stick, not even during the session, since i usually set this one to zero and never activated it i have to reset it each time anew. currently it sticks to 10.
the optimisation does not make a good job at the edges, it leaves a jagged result behind, it might be better if it would respect edges more optimising further into the flat areas rather.
could shrinkwrap become history dependent? to compare in c4d for instance (its called volume builder combined with volume mesher, i can make a short video if wished) the output is in realtime, i can drag the input geometry around with no noticeable lag. having history plugged in would probably require a better performing algorithm maybe its too much of a wish but would make using shrink wrap very intuitive. by the way i really love that tool it opens up a lot of formfinding properties, thanks you so much for implementing it.
@Trav if i may tag you here, thank you for checking
Settings stick as long as the object doesn’t change. Once the object changes, a new group of settings is created based on that object. This change is to manage system stability as we had a lot of users generating meshes that would destabilize their systems constantly. As for the edges, this can often be the case for voxels in general but we hope to bring some improvements to sharp feature preservation along with more volume/voxel style tools to future versions of Rhino.
hm you mean because it generated too many mesh faces then and having optimization set to 10 decreases that risk? i could imagine that some users may go full in with there amount of geometry, but that is not the case for everyone, i wonder if that is even the minority much rather. nevertheless i for my purpose have never used the optimisation and have to repeatedly turn it off which is very bothersome… maybe there could be a check “keep settings” for instance?
Let’s try just adding a settings toggle in just the command line version. The toggle would apply to both the interactive UI as well as command line version and act as a sticky setting value like an on/off switch. Something like ResetValues=on/off. RH-84236
hi @Trav the advanced settings do not stick as far as i can tell, it keeps resetting after each object.
what i do is set adaptivity to zero uncheck fill holes, then the next object which i use shrinkwrap on will keep those settings but after that it looses it all again.
i just downloaded SRC14, is that the version? if so the bug is still there. i also dont have SaveSettings, neither under “shrink…” nor under the dashed or normal version of the ui command.
ehm i am lost, is the dashed version not the command line version or do you mean the command options dialogue which was taken out a long time ago reimplemented but got somehow stuck, is that what you mean?
This feature enhancement will be part of SR14 when it ships. If your Rhino is set to download service release candidates then you’ll be notified that SR14 is ready for install when SR13 ships.
And yes, when using SR14 you’ll use the -ShrinkWrap command with the “-” dash in front and use the command option SaveSettings in order for the settings to be stored.
anyway thanks!
