GuideLine Test Script - ToggleHVlines for TVP 11 Pro
Posted: 19 Mar 2015, 14:31
I've been experimenting in TVPaint 11 with GEORGE scripts that manage GuideLine Lines functionality. Here is a short button/script for setting Vertical / Horizontal GuideLine Lines.
The button acts as a three-way toggle for H/V Guidelines:
First Click: Sets a Vertical Guideline Line and makes it red - so the cursor is an extended vertical red line.
Second Click: Turns the Vertical Guideline Line into a Horizontal Guideline Line and makes it green - the cursor is an extended horizontal green line
Third Click: Clears the Guideline Line.
Note that if you already have an active Guideline Line at some angle other than vertical or horizontal, it will be treated as if you requested a Vertical Guideline Line, sets it to red and makes it so.
Whatever drawing tool and colors you have currently selected will be used to draw straight lines vertically or horizontally.
I think the script demonstrates a general approach to GuideLines but I'd appreciate any feedback, good or bad. Thanks
