Funny PushPull fact
-
maybe many of you already know that, but also, maybe are more who don't know it. I just figured it out
Well, what is all about? Make a geometry (a cube) and post on top of it a component which have Glue feature. Then push-pull the surface. You will notice that the glued component moves along with the face . It works in any direction, just put a component that glues on that face. -
yes, I've noticed.
is very practical for some examples.I wonder if you can create a plugin that allows to "glue" components to geometry, no?
-
In code you set a component's 'behavior' to mimic a handmade one - there are methods like
defn.is2d=true
,defn.cuts_opening=true
,defn.snapto=SnapTo_Arbitrary
[or other snap-types] etc
and theninstance.glue_to(face)
to set the face the instance glues to... etc etc... -
Thanks for responding.
TIG Excuse me, sir, but do not understand the red textWhat is it?
maybe, a plugin would be a good idea just to the context menu.
that works as follows:
1 - select the components
2 - right mouse click> context menu> glue -
There 'red' text shows Ruby code...
There are ready several 'glue/reglue' scripts...
There's even a context-menu one as part of my HolePunchTool...
Search the Plugins Index for them... -
I understand now. thank you very much.
I found this plugin, very good.
thank you very much
