New(ish) HouseBuilder ruby?

tim

Aaaannd... now I've managed to remove a really stupid bug that made the system beep every time you click for a context menu and the selection is not a wall. SIgh.

Ah, that's the infamous beep with housebuilder!

Dear Tim,

Perhaps you could release your de-bugged version. I am sure that it would be useful to some Forum members. What is the etiquette here?

Kind regards,
Bob

I'm perfectly happy to do so; if anyone wants to package it up that's fine by me; I guess Didier is the best candidate.

Here it is anyway - modified Housebuilder.rb with the door sizing fixed to compensate for the rough opening offset and the stupid beep fixed. There is still a huge amount that could be improved.

Dear Tim,

Thank you for doing that. I'm sure that others will appreciate having a de-bugged version.

Kind regards,
Bob

Hello all,
Tim, thanks for the bug fixes. I found this thread doing a search to get rid of the beep you described. I downloaded the new .rb file and put it in my Housebuilder subfolder under Plugins, replacing the one that was there. However, I'm still getting the beep anytime I select the EDIT menu as well as every time I right-click on a drawing. Was this the beep that was address and, if so, are there more steps I need to take?

Thanks,
-mike

Ah. Yes, you need to slap me upside the head to upload the correct file. I forgot that I altered the HousebuilderTool.rb as well. So here it is.
HouseBuilderTool.rb

Thanks for this ... I wondered where that 'plink-plonk' appeared from (I don't always have sound on, so didn't immediately associate it with Housebuilder).

Hi Tim, huge thanks for the door size bug fix. I copied the two files you posed into Plugins/Housebuilder file - fixes the door problem perfectly but has also converted my metric version of Housebuilder into imperial. Any advice on how to get it back to metric?

Thanks

I downloaded HouseBuilder.rb. Should HouseBuilder_extension.rb be removed from the plugins folder?
