RE: [Virtools] MouseWaiter question

Usually, mouse waiter outputs a 2D position, that you can feed into a
parameter operation that '2D Pick' that returns the picked 3D entity. You
can work from that entity, checking if it belongs to a certain group, for
instance, or activating it to run all its attached scripts.

I think it's the best solution, and 'mousewaiter' shouldn't take long at all
(0.01ms on my pc).

Hope this helps

Objet : [Virtools] MouseWaiter question


All,

I am doing a project with a ton of switches that send messages. To activate
them all I want to try and avoid using the MouseWaiter. It takes a decent
amount of processor power in relative terms of milliseconds.

Does the WaitMessenger accept more than the "onClick", "onDoubleClick", or
numeric values? Can it take "left/right click", or any other mouse messages?


We have the combo of "Mouse Waiter", "Get Mouse Position" and "2d Picking"
working for clicking on objects. However, there is a problem with it
discriminating between objects. Does anybody know how to make it work by
clicking on only one object?

Thanks in advance,

Matt Gierula
