New Ellipsoid Dialog¶

This dialog is used to add a new contact ellipsoid to the currently selected human. It is displayed by the Add button in the human's Contact Ellipsoids dialog.

Enter a name for the new Ellipsoid¶

User-editable name for the new ellipsoid. The name must be 30 characters or fewer; a longer name produces a "name too long" error message and the dialog remains open. The name must also be unique among the human's existing ellipsoids — a duplicate name is rejected after the dialog closes.

OK¶

Accepts the name and creates the new ellipsoid, provided the name is valid and the human does not already have the maximum of 3 contact ellipsoids (an error message is displayed if the maximum is exceeded).

Cancel¶

Closes the dialog without adding an ellipsoid.
