A suggestion of idea for the "script brains Gurus"

[Frenchy Pilou]

Can you easy put on a key(left/right arrow key for exemple) the size of the tool brush ?
You are drawing and when you push the "key" the size of the brush changes in real time ?
A script can make this or it's only works on in sequential(in this case mouse is the same)time ?

use the buttons OR hit the Letter on your keyboard
S for small M for medium L for Large ::sizeME.txt (http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/zbc_uploads/user_file-1035530767bch.txt)

Hi Ez
It's a good beginning !
But now, can you take the current size of the brush tool size=B and
when pusch "S"--->B=B-10 ,
"L"--->B=B+10
with tests if B<1 then B=1
and if B>129 then B=128 or similar.
I don't know if script autorized test :)

Hey, I simply modified

[IButton,"S-Small","Made by EZ",[ISet,Draw :Draw Size,42],,,'S']

to

[IButton,"S-Small","Made by EZ",[ISet,Draw :Draw Size,Draw :Draw Size+10],,,'S']

and it works.

I did a zscript, my first. I used EZ's as a template.

PS: those graemlins in the last post were a result of UBB translation.

I added a slider to change the increment. :)

Is there a reason that the arrow keys can't be used as the shortcut keys? I am not too up to date on my ZScripting so I am not sure myself. I think I will try adding this little script to my default ZScript, and maybe a few others. I have always wanted something that changed brush size with just a keystroke. Thanks!!

What would really be great is the ability to map shortcut keys to the wheel on the mouse. Now that would be Heaven.

Hi Keith
I try your first "txt".
Great effort ! That works fine !
I don't try your second because
a slider is like a move of mouse :)
The interest of a press key is draw in the same time to change the size of tools.
There something wrong with the "S" ?
I find the little error :) and repare it :)

I have swearing to never programming :D
Damned I restart :) I am now a perjurer :o

Now more difficult !
The Key "Alternate" for "push" don't work with "D" or "I"
because this shortcurts still exist :)
WHat don't use arrows key ?
I know there are not on Mac but yes on Pc :)
Pilou :cool:
Ps I don't save the script because I Have only demo 1.23b , just edit the "txt" so try it, at home that works fine :)

Can you assign brush sizes to number keys? For example:

1=10
2=20
3=30
4=50
6=60
etc.

Or are these already taken?

[keith]

Well the slider is to change the value it goes up or down by. Say, you could make it go up by 10 or 5 or 1 or even 128. In the first version it goes up or down up 10 only.

Here's an update with mentat's suggestions.
