Hi, all; I have done a little bit of work to the screencast add on so that it better fits my needs. The improved version is here:
http://www.pasteall.org/24634 It has following differences compared to the original: 1.) x,y are now in % instead of absolute pixel (0-100%) Benefits: - The mouse and the text can no longer be placed outside the 3D view - When i place the mouse near the center (54% is my favorite value) then it keeps near the center when i resize the window. 2.) I have separated the font size and the mouse size. Benefit: I can make a huge font and keep the mouse small at the same time. 3.) I have moved the attribute storage from the Window Manager to the context.scene Benefit: When i store my blend file, my screencast settings get also stored. Not: I have kept the run status in the window Manager because it make no sense to keep that persistent. 4.) I have renamed the attributes by prepending the string "screencast_keys" to all of them. Such minimizing possible clashes with other add ons, which might also use context.screen as storage location. 5.) I have added a bit of code for a bounding box, but i disabled that code by commenting it out. Maybe i want to improve the Display a bit more later. On the other hand i guess it's better to not add fancy stuff so that blender doesn't get slowed down ? 6.) I have also added the most recent patch (from nazgul?) to avoid crashes. I hope the modifications are somewhat usefull and i would be happy if this small contribution is of value to some of you. Thank you to all who have helped me to survive in the python cage ;-) thanks, Gaia _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
