DuncansTools Notes: April 2013
http://duncanstools.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Updates and notes on various software packages I maintain. Thursday, April 11, 2013. I have fixed a small bug that was causing the add-in to crash on load. The old code was from some web tutorial and was trapping for errors rather than pre-testing for conditions. On Error Resume Next. On Error GoTo 0. The new code is below. For Each cbar In CommandBars. If cbar.Name = ToolBarName Then. GailsTools is now at v5.3. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Simple theme. Powered by Blogger.

PointLightLab Notes: Bug - Stupid Random Number Generator rewrite
http://pointlightlab.blogspot.com/2013/03/stupid-random-number-bug.html
Updates on the PointLightLab Software Suite. Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Bug - Stupid Random Number Generator rewrite. Using the new standard library C 0x random number generators is still an aquired taste. Apparently if you initilise a bunch of random numbers together using the time clock, the value is truncated from a long long ( time64 t, time t) down to an unsigned int. Removed one cpp file, two headers and now have less dependancies on boost. (Not a bad thing, just trying to simplify). View my complete...

PointLightLab Notes: December 2015
http://pointlightlab.blogspot.com/2015_12_01_archive.html
Updates on the PointLightLab Software Suite. Friday, December 18, 2015. PLL 45.x Reboot. Ok, got a bit of perspective and what I deludely call a stable base to work from. 1) I can compile what I am calling the 4.5.0 codebase. This includes the full suite of tools. This includes the installer projects. This will install on Windows 7 but crashes in the Player. Also needs two changes to the xmlConfig file to turn off the parallel port and set the refresh rate to 60. Question. Will this run on XP? Somewhere ...

PointLightLab Notes: September 2011
http://pointlightlab.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Updates on the PointLightLab Software Suite. Friday, September 16, 2011. PointLightLab v4.5.10. Added "Merge Close Dots" tool to Model Editor. This tool merges any dots in the model together if they are within a specified threshold distance. Useful for simplifying models or overlaying and merging models together. Also fixed up the compile chain for the help files. Now I just need to actually update all the help file content. Monday, September 5, 2011. Version 4.5.9. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

PointLightLab Notes: Visual Studio 2012 Really Slow Performance
http://pointlightlab.blogspot.com/2013/03/visual-studion-2012-performance.html
Updates on the PointLightLab Software Suite. Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Visual Studio 2012 Really Slow Performance. After having VS open and working for a couple of days it starts to run like a real pig. I can see icons flickering and intellisense is on its knees. Closing a small file takes a minute or two now. It keeps spawning Tasks in Task Manager which show as not responding. then slowly killing them off. This situation has only gotten worse. Here are some other folks solutions. 4) Network storage....

PointLightLab Notes: Ghosts from the past
http://pointlightlab.blogspot.com/2015/12/ghosts-from-past.html
Updates on the PointLightLab Software Suite. Thursday, December 17, 2015. Ghosts from the past. I have had cause to re-visit PointLightLab and I have to say that its a freakin mess. Since I last worked on it in 2013 it has rusted pretty badly. The versions in svn do not look right, the working directory on my hard drives are all out of whack and there was an abortive attempt to update the code to be Unicode compliant. What a mess. I now have three different branches of the code:. 3) Update VS, libraries,...
