How do you make plug-ins for sketchup
-
Anyone have anything new to post about their Ruby scripts?!
I DO!
I made a tutorial for how to begin writing Ruby scripts. Its short and fast, but I tried to explain what software to install, what websites to go to for help, and then I go over a basic script that iterates over all the entities in a model and sorts the edges, faces, componentInstances, and groups into arrays and displays how many of each there are in a model. And of course, I give a few suggestions about what to do with those arrays once you have them.
But hopefully the next tutorial will go over how to actually do things with an array of faces, or edges, etc. But I felt like the first tutorial just needed to explain what to do to get ready to start writing code.
Check it out (though if you've followed this thread from start to finish, there won't be too much new infomration). But its a good, quick, read.
