Questions for boss coders -
-can you nest a group? possibly not...
-will we be able to run favourite scripts in the Octane UI from either from a pull down list or via an icon?
Nesting groups is possible. In the tutorial we nest all the groups in the layout group.
You can set up a script directory in your preferences. Then when you click "reload scripts" from the script menu you should see all your own scripts in the script menu (below the seperator). You can run them by selecting them from the menu. When running a script from the menu, the output goes to the log window and on error it shows a dialog.
Looked at your homework looks great, we can hook up spiraling later in your UI.
cheers,
