      Hello everyone,

      I have a ruby script I developed and I'd like to have be able to be able to execute it remotely. The script generates renderings of walkthroughs based on the pages in a model (which I then assemble into a video manually). However it takes a long time to generate the images and I'd like to easily execute the script over multiple computers.

      I have tried invoking SketchUp using the COM API (in VB) but I'm unable to get it to even do that, let alone what I want it to do.

      Any suggestions?

      Thanks,

      Jon

        you can use SketchUp Bridge to run your scripts like:

        • start SU
        • wait for SU to initialize
        • load and run script via SUBridge

          TBD,

          any posibility to let sub.exe use stdin and stdout, instead of needing to save an intermediate file?

          Hi
