Reference Planes 1.0.0

The first release of Reference Planes: reference images in the scene, like Blender's.

Needs BlockDesigner 0.4.12 or later (plugin API 3). Install: download reference-planes-1.0.0.jar below, then in BlockDesigner open Plugins › Manage plugins… › Install… and pick it.

New

  • Add a picture (Plugins › Add reference image…, or drop a PNG, JPEG, GIF or BMP on the window). The plane keeps the picture's proportions.
  • Views: added in an orthographic axis view, it faces that view and shows only there; otherwise in every view.
  • Layers panel: a row per picture with a REFERENCE tag, eye and lock buttons.
  • Move, Rotate, Scale with G, R and S; Ctrl snaps to whole blocks, 15° and 0.1× steps.
  • Right-click menu: position, rotation and scale, UV offset and scale, opacity, which views it shows in, drawn behind, among or in front of blocks, flip, align to view, replace picture, reset aspect ratio, and a Properties… window.
  • Saved with the project, pictures included.
