[Plugin] Double line
-
Hi all,
Remember good ol' dline.lsp in Autocad ?
Here is a similar plugin to draw these kind of things:Available options (on TAB press):
-justification
-caps
-draw axis
-draw face
-make group
-width and height
-closeEnjoy !
EDIT 21.09.08: "close" option added, options selection persistent.
EDIT 23.09.08: changed the shortcut for "close" option: "x" instead of "c" which is a default shortcut for "circle".
EDIT 25.09.08: changed the shortcut for "close" option: double-click.
EDIT 26.09.08: changed the "undo": one wall at a time.
EDIT: 10.04.10 file_loaded? bug fixed
EDIT: 11.04.10 file_loaded? call removedEDIT: TIG
Please download the latest RB [in RBZ format from the SketchUcation PluginStore]http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=dline2 It is now recoded for compatibility with MAC & PC and suitable for v8 to >=v2015.
TAB (up) now opens the dialog on MAC and PC.
Its lines are forced 'flat' - constrained to the first picked point's Z.
If it's grouped it is given a unique name ["DLINE#n"]. -
fantastic gift, didier! thanks!

All hail the WISE and KIND DIDIER.

I was missing this tool. Many thanks indeed!
Some minor problems:
1/ Sometimes it refuses to make "walls" after tracing over existing lines.
2/ Sometimes it it makes negative Z height.
3/ Could the last parameters input be remembered?Could there be option to get vertical (along world z axis) not perpendicular "wall" to sloped face?...with sloped\terraced
upper cap to keep average height? -

3/ Could the last parameters input be remembered?1/I know how to fix this. wait next release
2/This happens when you draw a wall on an existing face. this is normal, the workaround is to ask for making a group in the dialog box, or create a group with the existing face you want to draw on.
3/Yes. For now the tool only remembers prameters if you draw several walls without exiting it.P.S.: I guess a "close" option to come back to the very first point would be nice ?

Hi Didier !
Thank you for this another great plugin !!J'ai juste un petite question : Tu dois connaitre archicad ! L'outil de dessin de mur permet de modifier la justification du pan de mur que l'on va dessiner...
I have a question for you : I suppose you know Archicad... In archicad, we have possibility of changing the justification while you are drawing the 2d wall...
For example :
Wall 1 = Justification "center"
Wall 2 = Justification "Left"
etc..
In just one command !Is it possible to do that ?
-
Thank you, Didier!
-
Very useful...looking forward to next update. Thanks Didier.
-
Hi Didier
thanks, this is great. -
very handy, thanx!
-
Some enhancemments added today. See top of post.

@ Tig Same problem but ...
Just enter any number then backspace for erase it then write c then Enter
And you can keep your C shortcut -
Are any other script.rb required to be installed in the plugin folder?
-
Hi Didier !!
One question : Is it possible to add an "undo" key inside the command ?
Thank you ! -
Do you know how easy this tool makes it to create pieces of wood for my models!!!! Hit D, enter 2 of the dimensions, click click, done.
That is awesome, thank you...

Hi,
@unknownuser said:
I can't get 'C' to work closing the loop - I have a short cur for circle that's 'c' so it dumps into that. Perhaps having something like shift+enter to close might do it ?
I noticed that also at the office on a standard install of SU, at home my PC doesn't have the "c" shortcut...
BTW, how to detect the Shift+enter keys pressed ?
I was thinking of a "x" shortcut instead but Shift+enter is more intuitive.@honolulu: no, no additionnal files required. Maybe a glitch with the pushpull if you are on Mac ?
@Pilou: want always more, hey ? i'll try to do it... -
thanks
-
This is fantastic, Didier. I have one suggestion (for now Each time the user hits the enter key to draw the walls so far, commit the operation so the wall sections can be undone one at a time. Thanks again, this is really useful. CB.

With some arcs now?
No no no. Ask TIG!
BTW, you can draw walls that include arcs with the "line2wall*.rb" scripts.
