      Anyone remember where I can find the ruby script that made pages for each hour of the day for a shade study?

        I don't remember any such script, nor can I find it anywhere. It's an easy one to re-write, though. Did it do anything besides create a page for each hour of the day? And would that be sunrise to sunset, or 12 hours, or 24 hours, or....?

        Hi

          Is this it? It's called shadowsequence.rb

            Jim,

            I not sure, it's been so long and I'm getting old. But I thought there was a ruby that set up pages for each hour of the day sort of like a time photography. I could be mistaken.

            Thanks.

            Btw how does the time ruby work? I click on it but did not notice any change.

              unless i am wrong, the only script there for dwnld is su2rad.

                Sorry Edson, I mean to get back to this earlier. It's a little complicated to download, so I am working on putting together a download. I still haven't been able to get it to work myself.

                You need to click the Source tab, then the Browse tab. Then look in the trunk/shadowsequence folder file the files to download. Then there another trick to getting the Ruby - click on View Raw File, then save the page. For the HTML, you can just right-click and save it.

                Then move both files to your plugins folder and start debugging. ๐Ÿ˜„

                Update: Ok, now I've got it running, but it requires you have the ImageMagick executables installed on your system.

                  I'm actually working on a SunStudy plugin right now. Trying to get the dialog working and looking the way I want it to.

                    I got the plugin to work with only minor changes. You need install ImageMacgick, and then tell the script where ImageMagick is installed. Here's a shot of it's interface.

                        Me too I'm in need for such a plugin to automate the work.
                        I recently used SU to make a shadow study and I must confess that this is a tedious task without a ruby script.
                        So, thanks RickW and Jim for your interest in this matter!
                        Hopefully we'll soon have a script to put to work ๐Ÿ˜‰
