Thread plugin (screw thread) - micheus - 04-13-2020 Someone has asked me about a thread primitive that could make easier to build screws and similar. I hope this help. I think it really became easier to build screws like this: Download the file wpc_thread.tar and use the File->Install Plug-in or Patch to install it. After that, restart Wings3D. RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - RubberMan - 04-13-2020 ....This exists! lol RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - nigec - 04-13-2020 awesome! is there a way to move it down the menu order so its not listed first? I don't want it above cube etc RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - micheus - 04-13-2020 In this case it's possible. Since the plugins are loaded by name order the "T" comes after "S" and then I could track the menus and put it after Spring. But, sometimes there is no way to put a item where want. I just updated the file. RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - oort - 04-14-2020 Micheus, Nice addition to the list of primitives. Any chance you could add a Shell primitive like the one that was started in the following thread. Shell primitive oort RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - nigec - 04-14-2020 thanks micheus RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - tkbd - 04-15-2020 Thank you. This is a very useful plugin for me. I also like the plugins mentioned by oort. (create Shell primitive) RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - Klim - 04-10-2021 this plugin will be included in primitives wings3d? RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - micheus - 04-11-2021 Yes. It will be in the next release. RE: Thread plugin (screw thread) - Klim - 04-13-2021 Thank you!
