Importing don't have to bring inherit of lenz

kimpastro

Hi again everyone.

I thought that had finished my import tool... but.. found a "bug". I have a situation, as follows:

*Note: Not sure about the name of the things yet.. When I say entity I mean a rack, shelf, desk, table or anything that is a full mounted object.

When create an entity with LenZ 700mm, put another entity on your side with LenZ 400mm, then export all, everything is save with correct attributes. But, when I import, the second entity assume LenZ = 700mm. The both assume the same height.

But if I change the order of put entities (400mm first, then 700mm after), when Import, everything occurs as it meant to be, with the respective LenZ.

Here's my import code:


  loaded_module = Sketchup.active_model.definitions.load_from_url uri

  moduli['attributes'].each do |key, value|
    my_load_texture_method
    loaded_module.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes', key, method_to_inches_mm_etc(value)
  end
  
  my_method_to_set pos_x, pos_y, pos_z and rot_z
        
  t_rotation = Geom;;Transformation.rotation(ORIGIN, Z_AXIS, rot_z.degrees)
  point = Geom;;Point3d.new pos_x, pos_y, pos_z
  t_position = Geom;;Transformation.new point

  entities = Sketchup.active_model.active_entities     
  instance = entities.add_instance(loaded_module, t_rotation)
  instance.transform!(t_position)

  $dc_observers.get_latest_class.redraw_with_undo instance

What I could observe is that, SU execute a rotation in ORIGIN, then apply texture and high(at this point he puts the wrong LenZ attribute), then move to his position.

well.. that's embarrassing...

actually the "problem" is that i had overloaded "onElementAdded" method.. and put:


@service.recent_inherit! entity

now i send a new attribute, then it becomes:


if entity.definition.get_attribute 'dynamic_attributes', 'imported_entity'
  @service.recent_inherit! entity
end

sorry about that and thanks for your time.

cheers.
