Thank you so much. I'm trying it now.
Because in my branch, it is possible to save your document as a directory without compression (for using with external version control software), in which case there is no extension used. And it seems only possible to choose directory for saving when using Qt style file dialog. I'll probably disable using native file dialog permanently in the future.
Maybe these two problems you have are related, probably due to the fact that you prefer to split the tree view and property view on two different side? Why not turn on the standalone property view and dock it together with the tree view. You can expand and collapse the property view at will. Or better, use the tab bar hint for easy switching between them. You can still keep the property view at combo view if you see fit.OficineRobotica wrote: ↑Sat Aug 08, 2020 5:06 am 1- suppress auto hide while a task is opened and make the hint bar act as a quick toggle for hiding the dock. For example if I start a filet task and want to add extra edges , when clicking in the 3d view the dock will hide forcing the user to go and unhide it to complete the task. This extends to all task dialogs that I opened.
2- I found my self allot clicking features in the tree because I wanted to modify some parameter in the property view. Then I had to go and unhide the right side dock. Having a voice named “raise property view” on click in the “tree view actions” would beautifully solve the problem. If I’m modeling I’ll have that on as 90%of the time by clicking a feature of a body is because I want to modify some parameter. I’ll have that off if I am working with an assembly and I use the tree mostly for selecting stuff.
Of course there is the corner case here also. If I click a “element” of an assembly in the tree it is because I want to examine or modify some of it’s parameters.
Sure, don't forget to ping me.This might become complex because there is a special case where the dock should hide. The sketcher dialog. This is where the quick hide/unhide by clicking on the hint bar might be usefull. Can we spawn a discussion here on how a automatic logic of hiding should work?
I'll expose the dock overlay re-layout delay parameter. You'll see that removing this delay completely will give some undesired effect. Reducing it to 100 ms is probably what you want.4- there already is a delay setting for showing the hint bar. The subsequent delay for showing the dock should be shorter or removed all together. There is no need for yet another setting for that. I just felt that the action between seeing the hint and starting the animation should be faster.
I'll expose the draw style and each workbench as individual commands. On the other hand, you probably want to try creating workbench specific pie menus, to reduce the need for explicitly switching workbench.3- I love the functionality of pie menu’s that you introduced. I’m pie everywhere I can lol. There are some voices that I can’t access though with this implementation. For example I can’t have a pie that can change between workbenches. Somehow the @triplus pie gives direct access to that. Also I can’t have direct voices to “as is” “shadow” and “wireframe” display modes. Those can be accesed only through a drop down menu. How can I create a pie that has “one click” voices for “as is” “shadow” “wireframe” “asm3” “part design” “part” ?
Saving the document as a directory is a very interesting feature for me since I already use GIT as version control for my CAD projects. Of course, currently I can't diff between two version because of the binary file format. How can I save my project as a directory?realthunder wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 9:53 amBecause in my branch, it is possible to save your document as a directory without compression (for using with external version control software), in which case there is no extension used.

Use the save file dialog to create a directory, select it, and then click open. And yes you can diff it, as most of the data are saved using text format.tom wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 11:02 am Saving the document as a directory is a very interesting feature for me since I already use GIT as version control for my CAD projects.

Yess....auto show on edit did the trick for the right side combo view. For now it is enough for me for keeping tasks visible.realthunder wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 10:23 am Maybe these two problems you have are related, probably due to the fact that you prefer to split the tree view and property view on two different side?

You can then set the tree view side of dock as 'hide on edit', and set the combo view side of dock as 'show on edit'. The 'show on edit' option will show not only when editing the object, but also if there is any visible task dialog. The 'hide on editing' option, however, will only hide if there is object in edit.
Don't expose it. We already have so many options lol. If there are side effects in removing all together that second delay just make it shorter.I'll expose the dock overlay re-layout delay parameter. You'll see that removing this delay completely will give some undesired effect. Reducing it to 100 ms is probably what you want.
There is the type to search bar in the "toolbars" edit dialog. Perhaps exposing those actions in the search results? This way a user can search for "as is" or "expand/collapse" etc and add to his preferred pie. It is just a suggestion. Ignore me if i talk nonsense. In the mean time the macro workaround works for me.I'll expose the draw style and each workbench as individual commands.

I think it's better that I answer to your question in the correct thread, OK?OficineRobotica wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 6:04 am

I think you might be the one that can give me a helping hand with this:

Atm I'm really intrested in point n°1 because using the size option for the text/icons in the tree will make them lose the vertical padding
Thank you again.
Thanks for that. There might be a small bug in this release.
