What’s new in 1.0
SuperSolo 1.0
Section titled “SuperSolo 1.0”- Now on aescripts + aeplugins. Buy, install and license SuperSolo through aescripts, with a 14-day trial to try it first. See Licensing & support.
- Leaving a solo always works. Clicking SuperSolo to end a solo only puts your own scene back, so it is never held up by a licence prompt — a scene can’t be left half-hidden.
- Nothing is written into the plugin folder. SuperSolo keeps its settings in Cinema 4D’s preferences folder, so it is happy in a read-only or shared plugins folder.
Since the first release
Section titled “Since the first release”These arrived during the 0.1 releases and are all part of 1.0.
- Parents bring their children. Soloing a parent solos its whole hierarchy.
- Children don’t need their parents. Soloing an object deep in a hierarchy keeps it visible without cluttering the Object Manager with its parents. See Hierarchies and materials.
- New objects join the solo. Anything you create, duplicate or drop into the scene while soloed is added to the solo — new materials too.
- Selected materials stay visible. Materials selected in the Material Manager stay visible through a solo, even if no soloed object uses them.
- Your layers come back exactly. Each object returns to its own layer when you un-solo, even when several layers share the same name.
- A colour you choose. The solo viewport colour is set in Preferences, and works over a gradient background.
- No stranded colours. If Cinema 4D closes mid-solo, or you switch to a document that isn’t soloed, SuperSolo puts your viewport background back on its own.
- One Chroma menu. With the Chroma Plugin Manager installed too, SuperSolo no longer adds a second Chroma menu or a duplicate entry.
The full list of changes is in the plugin’s CHANGELOG.md.
