Introduction

mcjTreeMakerA is a companion script for the mcjTracer2 plugin

but it can also be used without the plugin to export web-browser-renderable vector art files ( SVG )

it creates 2D flat tree shapes ( no leaves )

The recursive tree building method was developped by Gurpreet : http://techie-notebook.blogspot.ca/

Installation

the mcjTreeMakerA.zip installation package is found in the attachments section at the bottom of this page

unzip it in your daz content folder, typically C:\Program Files\DAZ\Studio\content\

once installed, it will appear in your content library, under Studio / Scripts / mcasual

Typical Use

Create a null node or a primitive sphere

select it

launch mcjTreeMakerA

click on the Do it button

a tree will be created and will be visible if you have the mcjTracer2 plugin

You could now use the "Save tree as svg" button to save the tree as a vector-art file

which can be viewed using any web browser

and could be embedded using proper html codes

Parameters

Bend range : in degrees the spread angle applied at each branch junction, the angle is chosen at random in that range

Length Range: in centimeters the length of branch segments - the length is chosen at random in that range

Depth : the number of levels of branching in the tree

Exported height : in pixels the height of the vector art tree

this is SVG Vector Art
