Thread plugin (screw thread)

[micheus]

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.

....This exists! lol

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

[micheus]

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.

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.

Thank you. This is a very useful plugin for me.
I also like the plugins mentioned by oort. (create Shell primitive)

Yes. It will be in the next release.
