X(nged)

report the currently displayed solids and vector list information

πŸ“… published 7.44.0, from nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

x β€” bestie, this is the command that tells you what's currently drawn on your display, plus all the vector list tea ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

x [level]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so x (you can also call it solid_report, twins fr fr) reports info about the solid objects that are currently drawn in the display. It's literally equivalent to who solids [level] β€” same energy, different name πŸ’–

The optional level argument controls how much detail you get. Think of it as a vibe check dial:

  • -2 or less β€” primitive names only. Bare minimum, no frills πŸ’€
  • -1 β€” full paths to each drawn primitive πŸ›€οΈ
  • 0 (default) β€” full paths plus illumination state ✨
  • 1 β€” adds per-solid center, size, region flag, and color information 🎨
  • 2 β€” adds vector-list counts πŸ”’
  • 3 or greater β€” adds the actual vector-list commands πŸ‘‘

If you just omit level entirely, no worries β€” it defaults to level 0. Iconic behavior tbh 🫢


πŸŽ€ EXAMPLES πŸŽ€

Example 1. List currently drawn primitives with default detail

mged> x

Lists all currently drawn primitives with their full paths and illumination state (level 0). The classic, the standard, the main character 🌟

Example 2. List primitives with per-solid color and size information

mged> x 1

Lists all drawn primitives with center, size, region flag, and color information. Color AND size? obsessed πŸ’…

Example 3. List primitive names only

mged> x -2

Lists just the names of currently drawn primitives, with no path or extra detail. Minimalist queen behavior, we respect it πŸŽ€
