DrawCircle

A well rounded plugin for Doom Builder 2

animated demo

To use, simply switch to the Draw Circle mode and right-click drag to draw the guide line.

This will create a "preview" that can be edited by moving the guide handles around with your mouse, increasing or decreasing the number of linedefs, or using the panel to fine-tune the angle and radius of the circle.

When done, press Enter to create the sector.

Features

  • Displays on-screen measurements for each linedef, the total length across all linedefs, and the number of lines that will be created.
  • Lines that are snapped to the grid are displayed in the Selection color; free lines are in the Highlighted color.
  • HOLD Shift to flip the snap state for both the circle linedefs and the guide handles. Has no effect on linedefs if the "never snap" option is enabled!
  • HOLD Control to flip only the linedef snapping. Has no effect at all if the "never snap" option is enabled!
  • Size tools to let you resize the circle so that the linedefs all measure up to a desired length. Great for fitting textures on those columns.
  • Property editor to give you fine control over the angle and length of the guide for pixel-perfect scenarios. Note that the "Never Snap circle linedefs" option is enabled by default

NEW for 2.0:

  • Can now specify a "thickness" for the circle, instead of the circle always being from the point of origin.
  • Can now optionally only fill in the outer circle, when thickness is used (sector will not be created for the center)
  • Can now optionally draw spokes and ante spokes along the vertex and line segments, respectively.
  • Control handles now always get preferential rendering
  • Up/Down boxes can now be incremented/decremented by 1, 0.1, 32, by holding shift, ctrl, alt, respectively.
  • Loosened sidedef requirements, so that it is possible to draw with 1 or 2 lines. This is useful for creating line guides of a specific angle and origin

new 2.0 features

2.0.1

  • fixed an issue where sometimes dragging a control handle would not work.
  • edit mode will no longer start the drawing over by default, but will instead manipulate the control handles.
  • added an auto scrollbar to the options panel for cases where the main window is not tall enough.

Shortcuts

shortcut list

A set of actions are available for customization inside the doom builder preferences panel. You can bind a key shortcut for easy access.

By default the +/i linedef is bound to shift + mouse wheel

You may also access these tools from the main toolbar:
