Bar Properties

• Standalone: If the Bar plug-in is going to be used without a Pie Values plug-in to set the values, enable this button. It enables you to set the value directly on the plug-in and you can define normalization factors between the input values and the value that is being set on the geometry.

• Bar Min / Max: If in standalone, these values set the minimum and maximum values for the bar. These values are connected to the Obj Min/Max values and by adjusting these together you can get the required effect between input values and visual effect.

• Value: Sets the scaling value of the object.

• Obj Min / Max: Maps the input values to the native values on the object being controlled by the plug-in. Adjust these together with Bar Max/Min on the Bar Values plug-in or on the Bar plug-in itself if in standalone mode, to get the required effect between input values and visual effect.

• Param Type: Sets the type of value to control on the object.

  • Param: Controls a named parameter on the object. Use the console to find the correct name for the parameter: Enable “Show commands”, Open the object’s editor, change the parameter and see in the console what the parameter name is.

  • Position: Position values can be set to control the X, Y or Z axis.

  • Rotation: Rotation values can be set to control the X, Y or Z axis.

  • Scale: Scale values can be set to control All, X, Y or Z axis.

  • Text: Text values can be shown as Integer, Float or Formatted text.

• Initialize: Enables the plug-in to initialize and gain control of the parameters.
