You're not going to do backflip on that one, but I though the Pin behavior can benefit a "get pinned Object UID" method.

So, here's the modded behavior (if Ahsley want to add that to next release, it's a one line property ;)) :

Edit : version 1.1 (new icon !)

You can know use "pin by angle only", and "pin by distance only". If you want the pin behavior to behave normally, just pin it back to the same object.

It is very useful indeed and already helped me alot)

Thank you)

Although i wanted you to ask, if it would be possible to add some options to this behavior, like pin only by angle(don't follow pinned object's position) and distance(follow to position but the angle)?

Hm... could you make it not to move to the position of the pinned object when enabling "Pin by distance" but to keep its offset? And same for the angle.

JohnJ made it here, but his behavior didn't had such a marvelous option to return pinned object UID <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle">

There seems to be a bug if you keep clicking back and forth between "pin only distance" and "pin only angle" it gets all screwy.

justifun : I didn't update the plugin after Ashley added some functionnalities to the stock one, bundled with C2. I'm going to check that.
