19:58 jin_xi   hey all, can i make a tool that opens a formspec when used with right click?
19:58 PilzAdam yep
19:59 jin_xi   cool. is that a detached formspec then?
19:59 PilzAdam but currently only when pointing at a node/object
19:59 PilzAdam formspecs are not called "detached"; only inventories can be detached

19:59 jin_xi   so is it the tools or the node/object's formspec?
20:00 PilzAdam whatever formspec you want
20:00 jin_xi   ok thanks
20:01 berome   _0/
20:02 jin_xi   so i'd use minetest.show_formspec in on_use in the tools item definition?
20:03 PilzAdam on_use() =  leftclick; on_place() = rightclick
20:03 PilzAdam (but on_place() currently only when pointing at something)
20:03 jin_xi   oh, i see thanks a lot again
21:27 jin_xi   ok, but how do i redisplay this formspec?
