Small enhancements request

Roman_21157

Hello,

Please fix the following issues:

• It is not possible to use CTRL+C / CTRL+V shortcuts in text boxes in the Selection Tool dialog.
• Not all characters are selected by clicking in the text box that already contains some numbers. For example in the given sequence 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 37 39 41 43 45 47 57 59 61 63 only 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 37 39 will be selected:

• Add the possibility to add/ adjust hotkeys.
• Add a checkbox in the Selection Tool dialog asking to keep the previous tab open.

Thank you for your suggestions, Roman, we will raise this with our team for future consideration!

Hey Matthew,

It seems that the issue with the joints number range is worse than I described. For example, if I have a number sequence like this:  7 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 41 43 45 47 49 51 53 55 57 59 65 67 69 71 73 75 77 79 81 83 87 89 91 93 99 101 103 109 111 113 115 119 121 123 125 127 129 131 133 135 137 139 141 143 145 147 149 151 153 155 157 159 161 163 165 167 169 171 173 175 177 179 181 183 185 187 189 191 193 195 197 199 201 203 205 207 209 211 213 221 223 225 227 229 231  only characters in bold will appear in the text box. 

I suppose that the text box has a limit of 255 characters.

Thanks for your reply, Roman, this information was part of the original request we sent to our team.  I would be curious to know, however what sort of application you were using this for.  I ask, in case there may be an alternate method that we could recommend to achieve this task.

Thanks for the prompt response, Matthew. I'm using Microsoft Excel for some post-processing tasks and I need to select joints in the model to visualize results.

Thank you for the info, Roman.  As mentioned this has been shared with our team, but I just wanted to suggest that if this selection set is constant (ie, you will need to continuously reselect these joints) you may want to consider adding them to a unique group folder.  We appreciate you sharing your observations with us, and we will look to use that information to make S-FRAME better.
