✨ OED(nged) ✨

okay so bestie, we're in the BRL-CAD User Commands section and this little icon is oed — short, sweet, and it literally yeets MGED straight into matrix edit mode 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

oed — places MGED directly into the matrix edit mode. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

oed {path_lhs path_rhs}

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So oed drops MGED directly into the matrix edit mode — no detours, no extra steps, we go straight there 🔥

Now the rules, and bestie you gotta respect the rules:

• path_rhs has to be a path to a primitive shape ✨
• path_lhs has to be a path to a combination that includes the first component of path_rhs as one of its members 👑

The matrix that actually gets edited is the matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs. And the last component in path_rhs? That's your reference shape while you're editing the object — it's giving main character energy for the edit session 🧚

⚠️ ngl, this part matters if you're scripting: the object you want to edit must be in view, so you have to run a B or a draw on the object before you use the oed command. no cap, don't skip this step 😭

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

This example shows off oed putting MGED into matrix edit mode. The matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs is the one that gets edited — iykyk 💫

Example 1. Place MGED in matrix edit mode.

mged>oed group1/group2 region1/shapea

Places MGED into matrix edit mode, editing the matrix in group2 that corresponds to region1, using shapea as the reference shape. slay 🫶
