Hi Roaoao,
I’m setting up a modal operator and I wanted to point out some problems with Confirm on Release. Maybe it is still broken.
I’m using spacebar to enable the modal operator with Confirm on Release checked, Block UI checked and what occurs is the modal locks on display ignoring confirm on release and exits only when hitting esc/rmb. Here are the three cases I discovered:
- If accidentally I press spacebar twice
- If accidentally release spacebar before releasing the mouse
- If I call an operator while inside modal like a pop-up menu or e.g. transform/spherize
The second case is crucial when working, one may not notice which one is released first during workflow and it’s very distracting to hit esc/rmb all the time.
And a couple of questions
On a modal is it possible to hide commands like rotate view, zoom view, select/activate etc, which I use regularly and in all modals, but I end up with a very long text?
Is it possible to use other hotkeys than enter/lmb and esc/rmb for confirm/cancel? I’m using lmb and rmb for sub-hotkeys.
Thanks a zillion,
Panos
