WISH: Draw Full / Short names toggle for selected GH components

Grasshopper
1

I’ve been using Grasshopper for several years now and I’m certain about many of the component inputs. Sometimes my scripts get long and I could save some space by not displaying their full names. Unfortunately, I still need many of the components to be more descriptive by showing their full names.

I wish there was an option in the radial menu to toggle full names for selected components or there was a list of exclude/include components for displaying Full Names similar to drawing component names in Sunglasses.

Components that I would like to always show short names

Is there any chance that filling you with coffee would make you look into your very useful plugin and check if there is a chance to add this option? :wink:

Hi @Czaja, thanks, I think it makes sense. I added it on its Github for when I get my hands back on it.

I see no reason to use the radial menu for this. A sub-menu of ‘Display | Draw Full Names’ would be more logical and consistent, I think.
