[Closed] Display System units in UI
I have created a script which is creating a series of objects and I when I click and drag I can create them over an area.
This is all fine and dandy, but the units displayed in the spinners are irrelevant to the unit scale I am working in. For example today I am working in decimal inches. Tomorrow I might be working in feet.
Is there any way to either set the unit display for each spinner or for the scripted plug-in overall?
I have tried several variants of the following with no luck.
parameters main rollout:params
(
length type:#float default:0 ui:spn_length units:#Dec_In
width type:#float default:0 ui:spn_width
thickness type:#float default:1 ui:spn_thickness
height type:#float default:0 ui:spn_height
)
rollout params "LidBox Parameters"
(
spinner spn_length "Length" range:[0,100000,0]
spinner spn_width "Width" range:[0,100000,0] units:#Dec_In
spinner spn_height "Height" range:[0,100000,0]
spinner spn_thickness "Thickness" range:[0.01,100000,1]
)
I have borrowed some code from one of Bobo’s podcasts for autodesk to illustrate my attempts.
Does anyone know how to achieve this? Or is my question just confusing?
Thanks Denis, couldn’t seem to find that in the help. Hence my failing example which the help seemed to imply would work.
