Random transformations
This plugin exposes tweaked versions of Move, Scale and Rotate that allow you to transform a bunch of objects with different settings simultaneously.
The transformation is random within the specified bounds.
Available commands:
- _QuantumJump (Random translation)
- _QuantumSwirl (Random rotation)
- _QuantumBloat1D (Random scaling in one direction)
- _QuantumBloat2D (Random scaling in two directions)
- _QuantumBloat3D (Random scaling in three directions)
- _QuantumChaos (All of the above)
Unlike the Rhino3 version of this plugin (which was never released officially) this one has a purely command line interface, making it scriptable.
Many of the commands implements one or more of these settings:
- Randomize
- (Calculate new random seed values for individual objects. In case you're not happy with the current distribution)
- AllowNegative
- (If enabled the random range is {-D to +D} rather than {0.0 to +D}. D is defined by your mouse-pointer)
- Local
- (If enabled each objects is transformed around its own center rather than a global base point for all objects)
- Linked
- (If enabled separate transformation along each axis direction share the same random value)
- NumericInput
- (Allows you to specify exactly what the random range is along all directions)
