Because the end result of creating Luxigons and Powergons in Modeler
happens in Layout, commands for creating them are found in the
Layout Tools category (Figure 1.52).
UtilitiesTab
The Utilities tab contains tools for extending Modeler??™s features and
giving you greater control over them (Figure 1.53). These tools are
used to install and access third-party plug-ins. This tab is also home
within Modeler to LightWave??™s custom scripting language, LScript. If
you??™ve added a third-party plug-in but don??™t know where it went, just
look at the Additional drop-down list within this tab.
Figure 1.53 The Utilities tab is home to various commands, LScript tools, and plug-in controls.
Commands
You use tools in the tools in the Commands category (Figure 1.54) to
create and edit instructions, or commands, for LightWave Modeler.
Say you want to always perform the same string of events on an object.
You can create a custom command to do so with the Edit Command
tool. Or perhaps upon startup, you like to have a Luxigon created from
a ball. You can do this and much more with the Edit Startup tool.
