Picking points for alignment

[Anna486]

Hello
I've got a problem when I try to pick points for aligment.
When I select both the base object an the align object and click on "Align: Picked Points" Button I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/anna/.config/blender/2.80/scripts/addons/object_alignment-b_280/operators/align_pick_points.py", line 320, in invoke

Hi Anna,

Can you confirm which versions of blender you are using with each of these. Also let's split this up into two issues (b_280 branch and 2.79 branch). Please post info from splash screen on your blender version. Thanks!

For the blender 2.8x error, region_toggle definitely exists. I think this may be an API blender version issue.

https://docs.blender.org/api/current/bpy.ops.screen.html?highlight=region_toggle#bpy.ops.screen.region_toggle

However in version 2.80 of Blender, region_toggle was not in the API yet. https://docs.blender.org/api/2.80/bpy.ops.screen.html?highlight=bpy%20ops%20screen#module-bpy.ops.screen

Can you test out with Blender 2.81 or 2.82. I just put this update in to keep up with the current version of blender API.

Hi Patmo,
Following your suggestion I've installed Blender 2.82a and the addon works.
This is splash screen of 2.80. I used version b_280 branch. Interesting, now I see that I lose base object after clicking "Align:Picked Points"

I'm curious if I do somethig wrong? Anyway, thanks for your answer!
Regards, Anna

Hello Patrick!

Here's an additional 'bug' report.
I've tried using this add-on on the following versions of blender 2.8x:

(v2.81a) - 2.81 (sub 16), branch: master, commit date: 2019-12-04 11:32, hash: rBf1aa4d18d49d
(v2.82a) - 2.82 (sub 7), branch: master, commit date: 2020-03-12 05:06, hash: rB375c7dc4caf4
(v2.83 alpha) - 2.83 (sub 11), branch: master, commit date: 2020-03-24 23:23, hash: rB188ccfb0dd67

All return an error when clicking Align: Picked points, so I haven't been able to use it.
Is this an user error, or is something amiss in the add-on?

I can't seem to find documentation to help me along, some instructions, however brief, would be greatly appreciated.

v2.81a

v2.82a

v2.83 alpha

You are using the wrong branch of the add-on! Make sure you download the b_280 branch

Hi Patrick, I can't get the tool to work on any of the versions you have recommended. It always gives me an error. What could I do to fix it?
