tyCache Position Offset for Icon when set to local - TubeSmokeGuy - 11-01-2021
Hi!
I think it would be helpful if we could set a position offset for the tyCache Icon when the cache is set to local.
So that we could place the icon close to the sim without moving the sim, if the sim was recorded far from scene origin.
Thank you and greetings!

In the Export Particles operator there's a setting to export local coordinates. That will make the "center" of the exported sim the tyFlow Icon, rather than the world origin. If you enable that, the resulting tyCache coordinates will be local to the original tyFlow icon, allowing you to place the tyCache icon close to the tyFlow icon with some offset, in local coordinates mode.

Allright thank you!
Unfortunately for an already saved out cache, there won't be a chance to move the icon in local mode, right?

Why not just adjust the tyCache pivot point?

Is this related to the icon position?
All in all this is not a major problem, so all good.
Just a small QoL thing
