This tool is just a quicker method of reseting the visibility for a layer on a certain frame.

See this page:
http://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtop ... highlight=

The files:
http://crashcore.com/public/moho/extras ... bility.lua
http://crashcore.com/public/moho/extras ... bility.png

Zip of all files:
http://crashcore.com/public/moho/extras ... bility.zip

To Install:
Place the files in the Moho scripts/menu directory

Usage:
- Click on the layer and it will turn visibility ON at the current frame.
- Alt-Click on the layer and it will turn visibility ON at frame zero.
- Ctrl-Click on the layer and it will turn visibility OFF at the current frame.
- Ctrl-Alt-Click on the layer and it will turn visibility OFF at frame zero.

* Visibility keyframes that are no longer needed after the new key will be automatically deleted.
I installed both the files from the Zip archive in Moho's scripts/tools folder and it didn't seem to work. It doesn't modify the invisibility at all. Clicking, Ctrl-clicking, Alt-clicking or Ctrl-Alt-clicking: no effect.

BTW I use Mac OS X.

Hmm.. I don't know.
Here's a guess:
From your screenshot it looks like you're clicking on the layer in the hierarchy list.
You need to click somewhere on the actual layer
i.e.
1. Select the layer you want in the hierarchy
2. Click anywhere on the main view

Let me know...

These scripts are so useful (an plentiful!) that I've made this topic sticky, so it will always be visible at the top of the Scripting forum. Thanks for the great work macton!

:oops: Sorry, for that, my mistake. It works exactly like you wrote.

Only on the Mac the keys are not Control and Alt, but Command and Alt. The Control key in the Mac is used to simulate a right-click with a one-button mouse. This is a system-wide feature in Mac OS X.

So, could you please include an OS-check to display the correct keys per OS?

Hmmm :) , I'm never sure where I must Reply for :arrow: THANK YOU!!! :D I always have loved the Magnet tool and with all this improvements is becoming in the most incredible POWERFUL tool! I love specially that "Repel" new function :) THANKS! Very useful & save time in lots of situations, really... Only a doubt, at first when I tried to move points and they were atracted to the center of the red area, I thought that could be a bug, but then I understood that I was in front of a totally new tool, isn't? Well, I only wanted to be sure... Well (and now SORRY but I can't aboid it...), any hope for that "Mega Super Archi Magnet" tool? That which would be possible move points betweeen different layers, you know... I'd be a "Super Archi Mega Dream" too :roll: ...CIAO! And THANKS! :D

PD: ...Ah, and THANK YOU very much for all that "Follow Line" scripts very useful (as usually) all they :)

I guess the best way to thank Macton is to use his scripts to create animation.

Macton:
One of the most useful scripts for me so far is the List external file.

However, yesterday I needed t ocheck which Switch reference file was being used - its not listed. So I did a dedicated test just a switch-file ... no dialogue box comes up. With one external picture and a switch, the dialogue box shows just the single file.

Its's not a big issue and it might be down to the way Moho uses the information (ie, it reads in the information and embeds it on the time line ... if that is the case there will be no inherited filename information).

Just providing feedback.

Rhoel.

As you suspected that file is not available to scripts.
