Offset + Thickness + Groups

[pingpink]

Hi Everyone ,

I'm trying to write a code to make a real glass size which I want to make all 3 functions of

Glass Offset , Thickness , and Group's name of " Glass Unit " in one time. From what I can do is to make Glass Offset + Thickness. They are all faces , but I want to convert faces to separate groups at the end. How can I add groups and have a name of glass unit ?

def face_offset

	model = Sketchup.active_model
	model.start_operation( "Face Offset" , true)
	selection = model.selection 
	entities = model.active_entities 
	arr = []
	faces = []
	selection.each{|entity| 
	   if entity.class == Sketchup;;Face 
	     arr.push entity 
	   end 
	}
       $face_offset = 13
	 $glass_thickness = 6
	 prompts = ["Offset Width [mm] ", "Glass Thickness [mm] "]
	 defaults = [$face_offset.to_s,$glass_thickness ]
	 list = ["",""]
	 input = UI.inputbox prompts, defaults, list, "Offset Face."

	 doffset = input[0].to_f
         $face_offset = doffset
	 berase = true
	
	# 1. Offset Glass + Erase outer faces
    arr_glass = []

    arr.each{|entity| 
	   face  = face_offset1(entity, doffset.mm, berase)
	   arr_glass.push face
	} 

	
	entities.each do |e|
      faces.push e if e.is_a? Sketchup;;Face
	  
    end
	
	# 2. Glass Thickness
    distance = input[1]
 
    faces.each do |e|
      e.pushpull distance.mm, true
	  
    end
	
	# 3. Make all to be glass groups 
	# faces.each do |e|(g=entities.add_group(e.all_connected)
        # g.name="GLASS UNIT")if e.valid? and e.parent==entities.parent and e.class==Sketchup;;Face
	# end
    
 
    model.commit_operation 
end

I can do it now !

def glass_groups

	model = Sketchup.active_model
	model.start_operation( "Face Offset" , true)
	selection = model.selection 
	entities = model.active_entities 
	#entities = model.entities
	arr = []
	faces = []
	selection.each{|entity| 
	   if entity.class == Sketchup;;Face 
	     arr.push entity 
	   end 
	}
     $face_offset = 13
	 $glass_thickness = 6
	 prompts = ["Offset Width [mm] ", "Glass Thickness [mm] "]
	 defaults = [$face_offset.to_s,$glass_thickness.to_s ]
	 list = ["",""]
	 input = UI.inputbox prompts, defaults, list, "Offset Face."

	 doffset = input[0].to_f
     $face_offset = doffset
	 berase = true

	# 1. Offset Glass + Erase outer faces
    arr_glass = []

    arr.each{|entity| 
	   face  = face_offset1(entity, doffset.mm, berase)
	   arr_glass.push face
	} 

	entities.each do |e|
      faces.push e if e.is_a? Sketchup;;Face
	  
    end

	# 2. Glass Thickness + Group's Name
    distance = input[1].to_f
 
    n='Glass unit'
    faces.each do |e|
     # e.pushpull distance.mm, true
	   
	   g = entities.add_group e
	   e.pushpull(-distance.mm)
	   g.name=n
	   ###############

    end
	
    model.commit_operation
