+ | > Update 11.10.15 - MicMacTools v1.0 is done and uploaded! | ||
+ | |||
+ | This page has links for several scripts I have created over the years for myself and others. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The **MaqueTools toolset** is a collection of toolbars with both vb and Python scripts loaded in them. These can only be used in Rhino for Windows. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The **MicMacTools toolset** is a collection of Python scripts that run from aliases. They are principally aimed to use with Rhino for Mac (although they will also run in Rhino for Windows). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Both of these toolsets will only run in Rhino 5 or later, as they contain Python-based scripts which will not run in earlier versions of Rhino. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Large thanks to Dale, Steve, Pascal, @ McNeel, | ||

+ | ====MaqueTools toolset==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This toolset is a master toolbar with flyouts. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I use many of these tools every day. Those tools have been more or less thoroughly tested, but there still may be bugs in some of them. [[toolsets@swissrhino.com|If you find a bug or failure, please report it to me]] (preferably with an example file) so I can fix it. I try to make this stuff as reliable, user-friendly, | ||

+ | ==How do I install MaqueTools? | ||
+ | The toolset is offered as a single V5 .rui file. You may import these into Rhino 5 for Windows in the usual fashion [[rhino: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Once open, you may copy the topmost button (MaqueTools) into your normal workspace. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Or, you may copy individual buttons or toolbars to your own workspace, or even edit the buttons and pull out the scripts behind. | ||
+ | == Why aren't there image icons for all the buttons? == | ||
+ | |||
+ | I don't have the time to design and implement button images for all, but if anyone is interested, I will be happy to accept contributions of images for the next version. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ====MicMacTools toolset==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is my first toolset designed to use with Rhino for Mac. As Rhino for Mac does not currently have the capabilities to import toolbars, I have designed this set to be alias-driven. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Rhino for Windows users can also use this toolset if they prefer aliases to toolbars. It contains a somewhat smaller subset of MaqueTools. | ||

+ | ==How do I install the collection? | ||
+ | In the downloaded .zip file, you will find a PDF file with a brief description of the tools, a folder named **MMT** with the entire script collection, and a text file named **MMT_Aliases.txt** which contains the aliases to be imported. The installation of these is currently more or less manual, but simple. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Move or copy** the downloaded MMT folder //(must be unzipped!)// | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | //(This is the default scripts folder for Mac Rhino.)// | ||
+ | |||
+ | > **Note:** //Library// is a hidden directory on the Mac. To get to it: Pull down the **Go** menu and then press the **Alt** key. You will see //Library// magically appear in the menu. From there, expand along the path above until you get to the //Scripts// folder, then drop the MMT folder inside. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now from inside Rhino, go to // | ||
+ | |||
+ | > **Note:** If you have already done this at least once, it will ask you if you want to overwrite the existing aliases. Answer yes if you are updating your MicMacTools installation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **//You should now be good to go!// | ||
+ | |||
+ | These scripts have been tested to some degree, but you may encounter unforeseen bugs or problems. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Notices of periodic updates to both the MaqueTools and MicMacTools toolsets will be posted to the [[http:// | ||
