# Relation Constraint Dialog

This MotionBuilder plugin provides a convenient search dialog for quickly creating objects in the Relation Constraint.

## Platform
- **MotionBuilder: 2022 ~ 2027**

**Note**: MotionBuilder 2020 is no longer supported since v3.0.

- **OS: Windows**

## Intended Usage & Limitations
> [!CAUTION]
> This plugin is implemented based on the internal specifications of MotionBuilder, which are not officially supported by the MotionBuilder SDK. It has been developed by leveraging the Qt libraries, based on the assumption that the MotionBuilder UI is built on Qt. However, these internal specifications are subject to change without notice in future updates. Please use this plugin at your own risk.

It is **not recommended** for use in **production environments**, such as:

- Live performances or real-time operation

Instead, please use this plugin only for:

- Offline editing or pre-setup tasks

**For safety, please remove installed plugin from the `plugins` folder in your production environment**.

## Installation

1. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Ndgt/Relation-Constraint-Dialog/releases) page

2. Extract the downloaded archive

3. Identify the product version of your software

(e.g., use `...-MB2027.dll` if you're using MotionBuilder 2027)

4. Copy the corresponding `.dll` file into the default plugin folder:
 `MotionBuilder <version>/bin/x64/plugins`

(**Note**: You may need administrator privileges to copy files to the `plugins` folder.)

## Documentation

See the DeepWiki page for detailed documentation: [DeepWiki](https://deepwiki.com/Ndgt/Relation-Constraint-Dialog)

You can build the documentation locally using [Doxygen](https://www.doxygen.nl/) if you have it installed. Run `doxygen <path/to/docs/Doxygen/Doxyfile>`, and refer to the generated `index.html` in the `html` folder.

## Usage

### Dialog Controls

- **Tab** – Open search dialog / Toggle "Find Option"

(**Note**: This control only works if **the mouse pointer is hovering over the relation view**.)

- **Up/Down** – Navigate the suggest list

- **Enter / Click** – Confirm selection and create object

- **Esc / Click outside** – Cancel and close dialog

> [!TIP]
> **Press A while hovering over the relation view** if the relation object is not created at the expected position (at the mouse cursor). 
> Since this plugin monitors mouse interaction with the relation view to determine where to create the object, the calculation will result in an incorrect position if the view is "frozen" (i.e., dragged with the mouse but the view was not moved).

### Dialog Settings
Since v3.0, settings button ( `...` ) has been added to the search dialog, allowing you to customize the behavior of the search dialog and open the online help page.

#### 1. Preferences

Push the settings button and select "Preferences..." to open the preferences dialog.

The LineEdit on the top of the preferences dialog displays the path of the configuration file. Right click the LineEdit will open the context menu, where you can copy the path to clipboard or open the folder containing the configuration file.

In the preferences dialog, you can customize the following settings:

- **Show Hit Operator First** (default) / **Show Hit Category First**

Whether to search by operator name first or category name first. If "Show Hit Category First" is enabled and you type `q`, the search results will prioritize categories that start with `q` (e.g., "Quaternion"), while if "Show Hit Operator First" is enabled, the search results will prioritize operators that start with `q` (e.g., "Converters - 
Quaternion To Axis Angle").

- **Do not search in namespaces** (default: OFF)

Whether to ignore namespaces when searching for models. If enabled, only the model name will be considered for searching, and the namespace name will be ignored.

- **Model Search Filter** (default: All filters enabled)

You can choose which types of models to include in the search results. For example, if you disable "Skeletons", `FBModelSkeleton` models will be excluded from the search results.

> [!NOTE]
> These settings are saved in the `RelationConstraintDialogConfig.ini` file generated in the `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\MB\<version>\config` directory. You can also edit this file manually to change the settings.

#### 2. Online Help

The following online resources are available:

- Relations Reference: [Official Help](https://help.autodesk.com/view/MOBPRO/2027/ENU/?guid=GUID-C50152F9-5607-4779-A964-186B4E1A0601) of relation operators
- GitHub Repository: This repository

## Development

### Requirements
1. **Visual Studio Build Tools & "Desktop development with C++" workload**

- MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tool : MotionBuilder 2024 ~
    - MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tool : MotionBuilder 2022, 2023

2. **Qt - qtbase(Required)**, **qttools**(Optional)

This plugin depends on **qtbase** (specifically QtCore, QtGui, and QtWidgets modules), and utilizes the **qttools** module to design the UI using [Qt Widgets Designer](https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtdesigner-manual.html).
    - Qt 6.8.3: MotionBuilder 2027 
    - Qt 6.5.3: MotionBuilder 2025, 2026
    - Qt 5.15.2: MotionBuilder 2022 ~ 2024

First, create Qt Account on the [Qt Group website](https://www.qt.io/), and download the Qt Maintenance Tool, then install the required Qt components (Open Source version) with the Maintenance Tool.

3. **vcpkg**

This project uses vcpkg for project configuration and dependency management. Set up vcpkg with the following command:

```
    git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git
    cd vcpkg; .\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
    ```

### Customizing UI
You can customize the UI of the search dialog and preferences dialog using the Qt Widgets Designer. Open the `.ui` files with the designer to edit the UI visually.

After you've finished editing the UI, use **uic** (User Interface Compiler) to convert the `.ui` file to the header file `.h`.

```
path/to/Qt/bin/uic.exe SearchDialog.ui -o ui_SearchDialog.h
```

> [!Note]
> This process is not necessary, as the `AUTOUIC` CMake property automatically generates the header files from `.ui` files during the build process. Run this command only if you need it for features like code completion in your IDE.

### Building Plugin
1. Open the terminal **as an administrator**.

2. Clone this repository.

```
    git clone https://github.com/Ndgt/Relation-Constraint-Dialog.git
    cd Relation-Constraint-Dialog/src
    ```

3. Edit the user-specific variables in [CMakePresets.json](./CMakePresets.json) according to your environment.

You might need to change the following variables:
    - `generator`: The CMake generator to use
    - `MOBU_ROOT`: The installation path of MotionBuilder
    - `QT_SOURCE_SEARCH_PATH`: The installation path of the Qt source

```json
    {
      "version": 6,
      "configurePresets": [
        {
          "name": "base",
          "hidden": true,
          "architecture": {
            "strategy": "set",
            "value": "x64"
          },
          "binaryDir": "${sourceDir}/build/${presetName}",
          "generator": "Visual Studio 18 2026",
          "toolset": {
              "strategy": "set"
          },
          "cacheVariables": {
              "CMAKE_AUTOMOC": "ON",
              "CMAKE_AUTOUIC": "ON",
              "CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD": "17",
              "CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED": "ON",

...

{
        "name": "MotionBuilder2027",
        "inherits": [
          "base"
        ],
        "toolset": {
          "value": "v143"
        },
        "cacheVariables": {
          "MOBU_ROOT": "C:/Program Files/Autodesk/MotionBuilder 2027",
          "PRODUCT_VERSION": "2027",
          "QT_SOURCE_SEARCH_PATH": "C:/Qt/6.8.3/msvc2022_64"
        }
      },
    ```

4. Build and install plugin

```
    cmake --preset MotionBuilder2027 --fresh
    cmake --build --preset 2027-RelWithDebInfo --clean-first
    cmake --install build/MotionBuilder2027 --config RelWithDebInfo
    ```

The built plugin `.dll` file will be copied to the default folder `MotionBuilder <version>/bin/x64/plugins`.

**Note**: If you are using Visual Studio Code, you can use Tasks to run these commands. See [tasks.json](./.vscode/tasks.json) for reference.
