Wow! SOOO useful! I love this idea and the plugin as well! Literally, perfect work!

Hi Daw. Thank you for making this pluging, it’s one of those tools that in specific situations is very useful to have.
I have two suggestions. Right now the plugin opens by itself when studio starts. This is annoying because this plugin is only needed occasionally.
And there isn’t a a plugin button created so after closing the window I cannot re-open it.

With these suggestions I believe your plugin would be even better.
Thanks for reading.

This is something you absolutely need every now and then! The amount of times I’ve had to copy-paste IDs and go replace a URL is crazy. Thanks for this!

I 100% agree with this, I closed it when it opened and then went to find the button, to which there is none. Please add one as this isn’t something you always want to have open.

Was gonna buy the plugin and then I saw this. LOL. If this issue was fixed I would definitely get it, I just cannot STAND plugins that open themselves and interfere with my studio layout. cough zilibobi’s ui tools cough

Thanks for your feedback! I will correct this behavior by adding a toolbar button. Expect this to come out by either today or tomorrow.

@ZweiForgot Will be fixed, no worries!

Pro tip: You can open/close plugin windows by right clicking on any plugin top bar and then clicking on the plugin name.

This will be fixed soon.

I’ve got a feature request, and it’s not for utility but for fun. :point_right: :point_left:

Setting to autoplay sounds when hovered.

#12

You mean like a setting that makes the plugin autoplay sounds that it detects you select?

#13

I assume that future additions will have interactive sounds and models in a way that you consciously click Play, or Inspect. I would find it exciting to program if the sounds just auto-played as they are selected (or hovered if possible).

Unironically legendary plugin, 100% worth the purchase.
No complaints here, great work!

Sure! Hovering is unfortunately not possible as those things are either locked behind C++ or CoreScript security.

Can you make it, so the GUI only opens itself when you select code? Or is that locked behind some coregui stuff

#17

I could, though wouldn’t it be annoying for it to show up each time you select an ID? since it would shift the space around the other widgets. If not, then I could add a setting for this.

#18

Well, for me its currently annoying when it’s there and not used. I dont like the instant startup when opening studio. I’d prefer to have it open in an undocked window when i select code. But those are just preferences

Would be nice if you could make a setting for that :slight_smile:
