After this lecture I have noticed that in my model the following is going on:

If I present the deformation by pressing the button and than press it again to hide it…it is no longer possible to go from object mode to eddit mode without selecting the object again first.

Not really sure yet why this happens.

Solely for this reason I would change the following:

  • Change in file: generate_deflected_shape.py
  • Change:
    def generate_deflected_shape_object():
    …
    …
    bpy.context.view_layer.objects.active = new_obj → bpy.context.view_layer.objects.active = serpens_prop_structure

Yust a preference, I gues.

Good suggestion - there are likely to be many areas like this within the add on that will benefit from small improvements. Spotting these (as you are) means that you’re making excellent progress.
