~Display Frame~ The grid arranger will snap to the X positive axis of the referenced link. In cases where you want to 'hide' cells and leave the hidden area interactable, this is better than a cut cube because it saves on LI after linking. ~Septocell 7-Character Cell~ Seven Display Elements, 1 Background Element. It's just simpler to write UI for and allows for per-cell colors and can be re-arranged easier. ~Demonstrator~ This is a standalone configuration with full-perm scripts to help understand the system and scripts to squint at for 'working example' learners (like Rez is) ~Septocell Display - Lite .lsl~ A trimmed version of the display driver without the extended Icon Glyph support or hideable cells. ~Septocell Display - Full .lsl~ Lite, with full Icon Support ~Septocell Tookkit .lsl~ Cell Arranger, Display Tests, Symbol Builder

Advice; Where possible, cut a slice of parcel out as a 'sandbox' for yourself when assembling tiny things. So that you can clean that subparcel later.

  • Where you want to put Septocells, either apply a cube, a flat mesh plane, or our Septoframes where you want them and give them unique names
  • Make a backup copy of your build. Save early, save often.
  • Rez one Septocell an duplicate it enough times to populate your hud. Don't be afraid to add more just in case.
  • Name one septocell or flat plane 'septoreset' and place it and rotate so it an't be seen by the use rwhen worn.
  • Drop in the SeptoTools script.
  • Open the SeptoTools sscript and [ varbles here]
