![]()
If you are terrible at drawing flowers, like me, this one's for you!
![]() ![]() It's basically the star tool, just with instant node type changing, adjust the settings, then click the button to generate a shape in the middle of the page: ![]() The code to install it is in the zip, but also here: Code:
Sub addMultigonDocker() Dim dockerAssembly As String dockerAssembly = "D:\YOUR PATH GOES HERE\Multigon.dll" Call FrameWork.AddDocker("0F10EF19-3BD9-458F-9FA5-60320658A792", "Multigon.Docker", dockerAssembly) Call FrameWork.CommandBars("Dockers").Controls.AddToggleButton("0F10EF19-3BD9-458F-9FA5-60320658A792", 0, False) End Sub An infinite supply of flowers, bottle caps, stamps, badges and other things await. Enjoy! PS. I know it's a tad cumbersome at first, but after a bit you see the settings in your head. If there's enough interest I might make a live preview version and/or a click to place and set size version. PSPS. Also (and this might as well be a signature, heh) massive thanks to Shelby for helping with a potentially buggy bit on the other side. Thought I was going crazy there for a bit.

Having done some interface improvements to the main project and learned the data binding system that WPF provides (it's awesome, btw) I decided to update Multigon as well:
![]() You now get an interface more in line with CorelDRAW standards, several ways to input the values + presets. Neat. Also a new function - you can now shift the outer nodes by a percentage of a full step letting you make some rather neat shapes easily: ![]() Two more improvements - the icons now look sharp and the rotational center of the shape is now set at the exact center of the shape. Enjoy, feedback welcome. |

Well, I'll just keep on improving the thing with things that seem useful... So what more can a Multitype Polygon Generator need? More Polygon types, of course!
![]() Eight more types, to be exact, including the rather neat gears: ![]() I have this silly idea of a pattern-based side editing option, but that may be going too far. This is probably the last version for a while. Enjoy, as usual. |

Try using this when you are adding the toggle button...
Code:
With FrameWork.CommandBars("Dockers").Controls.AddToggleButton("0F10EF19-3BD9-458F-9FA5-60320658A792", 0, False) .Caption="Multigon Tool" End With End Sub You might also try wrapping everything in BeginCommandGroup and EndCommandGroup so you can easily undo and redo it. |

Ah, neat, thanks for the way to change the caption. Will have to find a way to make it stick, though. I have another docker I'd like to make a proper product of and that would need easy installation, proper button with icons, etc.
Also will check if I have forgotten a commandgroup, usually have them everywhere. |

You can just use the .xslt's to add everything actually. You can do it the way Shelby described using a Macro to just toggle the docker on or off, or forget about the macro and remember a ToggleButton is just a checkbox.
I'm using the Macro Toggle on these... http://www.softbotz.com/QRCode/ http://www.softbotz.com/DockerSet1/ Have the need for VBA elminated and will put it in the next versions. Last edited by SteveDude; 28-05-2012 at 15:25. |
