Hi guys, I have a question:

I noticed this routine in my travels (Units\unit_XMLDataReader.pas):

Code:
function TXMLDataReader.ObjectTypeForDescription(const aDescription: string): TObjectType;
var found: boolean;

begin
    found := FALSE;

    for result := Low(TObjectType) to High(TObjectType) do
    begin
        if XML_PRIMITIVE_TYPES[result] = aDescription then
        begin
            found := TRUE;
            break;
        end;
    end;

    if not found then
    begin
        raise Exception.Create(Format('Unknown blend operation "%s".', [aDescription]));
    end;
end;


Should this:

Code:
raise Exception.Create(Format('Unknown blend operation "%s".',


be:

Code:
raise Exception.Create(Format('Unknown object type "%s".',


??

This looks like the good old copy and paste but forget to edit trick!! LOL

Been there, done that! Wink

Anyway, I noticed this when I was trying to add in a path primitive to DeleD, and I got an Unknown blend operation... error when trying to load a scene with a path in it (not via IDE).

cheers,
Paul

I have another question now:

If I want to create a new primitive (vertices, polygons, etc) and add it into the current scene from DeleD code, what is the best procedure for this (including enabling undo, etc)?

I have managed to add in a path primitive to DeleD so I can sort of see how the primitive is added when doing this, but it uses tools and other stuff which is quite confusing...

Is there an easier way of adding plain primitives to a DeleD scene using simpler code?

cheers,
Paul
