Problem picking aligment points in Blender 2.8

[leonlazic]

Hi I am experiencing an issue when I try to pick points for aligment.
When I select both the base object an the align object and click on "Align: Picked Points" Button I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/leonlazic/Library/Application Support/Blender/2.80/scripts/addons/patmo141-object_alignment-2f5bc25/operators/align_pick_points.py", line 241, in invoke ob.select = False AttributeError: 'Object' object has no attribute 'select'

Align Object Version: 0.2.0
OS: Mac OS
Blender Version: 2.80 2019-07-29

you need to download the 2.80 branch

I have downloaded the 2.8 branch. Otherwise I wouldn’t expect it to work

you may nee to clear out the cached addon files. As you can see, the error mentions line 241. In master branch, the line matches the error you have. In b_280 branch, the line is completely different because of the additional gpu code I had to add at the top of the file.

just make sure you click this little dropdown before the "clone or download" button.

and the download should be named the following "object_alignment-b_280.zip"

Thanks.
But I know now what happened. I downloaded the 2.8 branch already the first time but right after installing the addon (before checking if it actually works) I clicked on "check for update" and it said that the 0.3.0 version is available.
So I said " Cool newer version probably even some early bugs fixed already. I'll update right away..." And after the update I got that error and even some other ones.
But now I figured that the update probably doesn't link to the correct branch. Thanks again for your help.

Best regards, Leon

created new issue #20 since I anticipate maintaining 279 and 280 support for a while. Thanks!
