Dear Alain,



I was wondering if there was a fix for the refresh on this plug-in.



If a scene is renamed, the scene name doe not get refreshed in XGS Slate.



Cheers



Andre

Greetings,

Just a quick note to mention that I published a new version of Xgs_Slate ( v1.5 ) on XSI Net.

Go to http://www.softimage.com/xsinet_ and look under "add-ons" or search for "Xgs_Slate". _

_The archive contains Xgs_Slate version 1.5 compiled for XSI v4.0 and another one compiled for XSI 4.2. _

_The plugin source code is included. _

*_Installation : _*__

    * _download archive ( 050117 - Xgs_Slate v1.5 - All.zip ) _
    * _XSI 4.0 : extract "050118_Xgs_Slate_v1.5_XSI_4.0.xsiaddon",
      install the Addon and restart XSI_
    * _XSI 4.2 : extract "050117_Xgs_Slate_v1.5_XSI_4.2.xsiaddon",
      install the Addon and restart XSI_
    * _File > Preferences > Custom > Xgs_Slate : allows you to modify
      the plugin parameters_

_ _

*_NOTE :_*_ a bug was found in XSI which causes it to crash when trying to uninstall an addon containing a XGS plugin. If you already installed the addon on a machine and wish to replace it with a newer version, you can avoid this issue as following :_

    * _quit XSI_
    * _go into your user installation folder, e.g. :
      C:\Private\Setup\users\alainl\Softimage\XSI_4.2_
    * _delete file Data\Preferences\Xgs_Slate.Preset_
    * _edit file Data\Preferences\default.xsipref ( text file ) and
      remove any references to Xgs_Slate parameters ( if any )_
    * _delete the addon file from Addons\InstalledAddons_
    * _delete the Addons\Xgs_Slate folder_
    * _launch XSI_
    * _install the addon_
    * _restart XSI_
    * _all should be working fine_

_ _

*_Modifications from v1.4 to v1.5 :_*_ _

    * _replaced the Mask "Aspect Ratio" parameter with a "Standard"
      pulldown menu containing standard aspect ratio definitions like
      the ones found under Camera > Properties, as well as the ability
      to specify a "Custom Ratio" value_
    * _renamed "Mask Colour" as "Outside Color"_
    * _added "Inside Colour" parameters to control the color of the
      view inside the mask_
    * _added "Field Guide" control parameters :_
          o _new parameter to control display of the Field Guide_
          o _new parameter to indicate the display area : View, Mask
            or User-defined ( in this case a "Standard" pulldown menu
            and "Custom Ratio" parameters are available to specify the
            area )_
          o _new "Safe Title" and "Safe Action" parameters which
            replicate the options available in the Visibility Options_
