Is it correct that Speckle AddOn, installed from disk, comes now as an Extension (like Photographer AddOn also does), is now called “Speckle Connector” (former Speckle Blender ?) and registers as Version 3.0.0 - or did I mix up my folders when preparing Final V3 for my Mac ?
The 3.0.0 version likely is expected, because it hasn’t come from our build installer, the version number hasn’t been set. I think it we have a hard coded fall back in the__init__.py file, (bl_info) .
I wasn’t expecting a extension however, our plugin is uses the older addon system. But if you installed it via the extensions menu, perhaps that also works.
No, old school legacy AddOn “install from disc” *.zip installation.
AFAIR the Beta 5 did not show up under Extensions, or I just did not notice as I did not expect.
The same happens for Photographer’s *.zip too.
OK, I see Bonsai and Homemaker also, maybe because I install these from a Github Path.
Here ? :
bl_info = {
“name”: "Speckle Blender ",
“author”: “Speckle Systems”,
“version”: (3, 999, 999),
Just wonder why it is then listed in AddOns as “Speckle Connector”
Nevertheless, no problem at all,
I just wanted to be sure that I really have the latest Final version now. Not that I test and criticize an old Beta instead.
(Could have easily been I that accidentally mixed something up here, with my today’s very first Python contact and experience)
Yes, had not yet updated my Blender 5 Alpha. And I can see that my last V3 Beta 5 installation still resides in the old /scripts/addons/ Folder.
This was the place I was thinking yes… I guess it’s 3.999.999 here, so not too sure how that becomes 3.0.0.
Perhaps there’s some left over files from when we experimented with making the plugin compatible with the blender extensions system, and that’s what’s being picked up.
