As usual, I am working on a large generator and trying to simplify the process of generating complex splines. Right now, I am focusing on creating something similar to Array and Stacker functionalities. Array isn't a problem as the Offset Operator can be used, but for Stacker, I had to be a bit more innovative to obtain the X/Y Bounding Box of the spline.
In this regard, I have one ER (Feature Request) to potentially introduce an operator that would return the Bounding Box of the current Spline Setup. I am aware that splines can be placed in many ways, but I believe that the Bounding Box of the entire setup could be useful. I created a small macro that currently does the job, but I believe if it were integrated into the core, the result would be calculated much faster.
I also encountered a couple of technical issues:
1. The size of the macro window is determined by its name, not the longest text in the window, so we need to add a few blank characters to increase its size.
2. The Default values of the String type Parameter for the Sequencing MatID are not working.
3. When I tried to apply the translation to the Stack, the entire Spline Setup was correctly moved and participated correctly in the segment generation, but there was a "duplicate" left at the original position (I assume this happens because they are additionally generated through generators in the auxiliary macro for the Bounding Box).
If you need any further clarification, feel free to ask. I have more topics to discuss, but it would be nice if we could have a live chat, as it is really hard to explain everything with images and text.
Best Regards
