  • It seems to mess up my default maya shortcuts a bit

    It seems to mess up my default maya shortcuts a bit

    This one I am actually not very sure, but that's the only suspection I have, cause it happen after I start using the picker. My "f" button, and ctrl -z button is not quite working as before, the f button works on the picker's window, but not working for my perspective view anymore.

  • (nested ?) Namespace error

    (nested ?) Namespace error

    Hi!

    Im having problems with the namespace. Want to check if its from the picker side.

    When referencing a rig which changes the original rig namespace. Original rig namespace: rig_group_name Referenced rig namespace: file_name:rig_group_name

    When doing this (referencing the rig), my IK/FK switch code stops working, because it doesn't find the namespace "rig_group_name" because now it has been changed to "file_name:rig_group_name"

    Is this something the picker can control?

    Cheers.

  • ISSUE, Button Right Click Action, script, not working maya 2022

    ISSUE, Button Right Click Action, script, not working maya 2022

    Hi there, I'm playing around with the picker, and i think came out great, i just wanted to post a few issues here as I'm finding them, as suggested by your readme. (maya 2022) When setting a button to use Right Click option, and setting it to HasCommand True, using Python, inputing a python command, wont work on the picker. As i right click on the button, from the main UI view, nothing happens, and or no menu are showing for the inserted command. Also noticed, that even tho i removed a selection Target (made the string Empty), by left clicking is still selecting the object that was removed from the Targets.

    Tell me about the problem I encountered.

    Hello, this picker is very excellent, but I will encounter some problems. I will list my questions here for your reference. 1. The view zoom setting is a little anti-human in Maya, and the main performance is whether it easy to be too large or too small; 2. Is it possible to add custom button shapes? 3. The picker will be reset every time it is opened. Can you remember where I put it and the window size? 4. Can the namespace settings be placed in a prominent position?

  • Update checker

    Update checker

    As this is an ongoing project there are so many updates, and having to check github every now and then is pretty annoying. I've seen other tools have a very simple Update button which compares the localVersion with the currentVersion. Then downloads, unpacks, replaces and rehashes the Tool.

    Is there any way of implementing this onto here? That would be awesome.

  • Wacom pen Scale View issue

    Wacom pen Scale View issue

    Hi,using wacom pen to zoom the view is not friendly and changes too fast. Similarly, “ALT + pressing the withmiddle mouse button” is as unfriendly as wacom pen. It changes too fast. The use of mouse wheel sliding zoom experience is very friendly. Can this be optimized? Quite a few animators use wacom pen

    Relative path for images

    Is it possible to set relative path to images? For example, i would like to have a folder named "pickers" inside my Maya project's folder and simply set: "./pickers/mypicker.png"
    From there, i should be able to use my pickers from differents working station without having to set every time my path for the image. Thank's in advance!

  • picker attributes copy and paste function

    picker attributes copy and paste function

    in advance editing window,If we have the function of copying and pasting the color, size, border and other attributes of picker, it will be more convenient in the production process of picker. Most pickers have the same color, size, border or other properties. The preset size of the picker window is invisible, and the effect can only be seen after creation. In the advance editing window, if we have this copy and paste instruction, we just need to adjust the size and color of one picker, and then copy it to other pickers.

  • Request to encode picker data in base64

    Request to encode picker data in base64

    Hi, we would like to request to change default picker data storage format from plain JSON to base64 encoded JSON.

    1. because it is compact notation in maya scene
    2. our antivirus check raises when it encounter python keyword and removes picker data from scene.

    I realize that you may not want to change that, but what if we make a patch to support storage plugins that would be passed to DwPicker constructor?

    Hi, I just download the 2022 version, I am using it on maya 2017, and when I start creating a picker, I find that I was not able to use the " add background item", I saved my image in both jpg and png, but the button was not able to detect those images. it only detects msi and mp4, I am not sure why.

  • Button attribute copy and paste bug

    Button attribute copy and paste bug

    When I paste the attributes of another button, the attributes of the picker are refreshed in time in the picker window, but they are not refreshed in the advance edit window. Even if I close the advance edit window and open it again, it cannot be refreshed correctly. Then I move the copied button in the advance edit window, and the previously copied information is restored to the previous state

  • Ability to display a submenu list of buttons(like hotbox designer)

    Ability to display a submenu list of buttons(like hotbox designer)

    Hello, i noticed that on your hotbox_designer, there is a possibility to display a subMenu clicking a button (via script), and i would like to do the same but using the picker buttons.

    Basically, i want to make certain buttons to be picker functions buttons, and these would "open" a sub-menu (these could also be other json file pickers like on the hotbox_designer), either running this as a right click action for a button or a left click.

    This would have to be displayed on top or as part of the main UI or perhaps only display as a layout widget with the buttons (no ui boarder)?

    Do you know if this is already possible?

  • Support buttons as both selector and command trigger

    Support buttons as both selector and command trigger

    This is actually not possible to execute a function and select shape with the same button. That would be usefull if user want to write an automation (like selection channel in the ui) directly after selection.

    Store pickers with referenced maya scene

    Hi, it was very desired option to AnimSchoolPicker and it is nice to have here.

    I would tell that we already implemented that on our own, but i think it is nice to have it in mainline and remove any divergence. I would tell more about our approach but you may have another points so, what do you think about this?
