This is a simple module that displays a bunch of information inside | ||
the 3D View window, in a somewhat configurable manner. Most of this | ||
code has been stolen blatantly from the wonderful Speedflow | ||
(<https://blendermarket.com/products/speedflow>), whose features | ||
I've found I don't really need... but I wanted this feature, and | ||
I wanted to be able to add additional features to it without having | ||
to keep a close eye on Speedflow development (lest it break under | ||
my nose). And, well, here we are. Much appreciation to the Speedflow | ||
developers for all their hard work! | ||
the 3D View window, in a slightly configurable manner. | ||
|
||
This idea (and much of the original code) was blatantly stolen from | ||
from the Speedflow (<https://blendermarket.com/products/speedflow>), | ||
whose features I've found I don't really need -- but I loved the | ||
overlays! The original Speedflow code has been hacked almost beyond | ||
recognizability, but you can still see bits of the original if you | ||
look. | ||
|
||
This addon should definitely be considered beta quality at best, but | ||
it works well for me! I will *gladly* fix any problems found if they are | ||
reported (via Github issue, ideally, but I'll also take email, text | ||
message, smoke signals...). | ||
|
||
If you get no text in the 3D viewport, something is probably crashing -- | ||
check the Blender console, and if it's dumping out a bunch of errors, | ||
open an issue with the error text. I'll probably make it better about | ||
catching its own errors in the future. | ||
|
||
I hope someone finds this addon useful! |
