Gizmo Update

16 Aug 2011 -

After a few long nights coding I think I’m about ready for another release of my gizmo project. I’ll be writing up a full post about it later, but if you’re keen to give it a go you can download the code here (you will need Panda3D installed to run). Or you can watch this thrilling demo:

Version 1.1 has the following fixes and features:

• Fixed intra module importing
• Moved constants out of init.py and into constants.py
• Fixed local transforming for rotation / scale
• Added “complementary” scaling when ctrl-clicking an axis of the scale gizmo
• Added middle mouse functionality to continue transforming
• Fixed bug where moving the mouse from the rotation gizmo would stop transforming
• Fixed bug where quickly rotating in camera axis would spin the gizmo wildly
• Added support for attaching multiple nodes
• Added marquee selection for demo
• Fixed scale gizmo appearance during transform
• Added concept of default axis
• All transformations now done with matrices
• General code cleanup
