      Hi,
      In fact, send_action just performs an action which doesn't need any user input, or selects a tool (afaik).
      If you want to get the distance between 2 points, you don't need dimensions for that (d=p1.distance p2). If you want your script to draw a dimension, I think this is impossible.
      I hope I'm wrong...

            Hi Didier, is this going to be your next (and shortest) SU ruby plugin to get rid of us before we even started? 😲 πŸ˜• --> 😠

              Getting distances between two points is easy as stated...
              You CAN'T make dimensions direct from Ruby, BUT you can make a dimension-component.skp (or a set of various ones) that are stored in a Plugins sub-folder - these have a 'base' length, your script then has you pick two points - it places the component at p1 and rotates it to towards p2 and also scales it by the required factor p1_to_p2 : base... Point p3 could be an offset and scale approproiately for this...

              .

                Hello !
                It's strange Ruby can't answer to a Sketchup pending command ! 😞 😲 πŸ˜•

                I would like to create a tool for continuous dimension. Acad like !
                1- Draw a simple dimension
                2- Retrieving the last basis point of the first dimension
                3- draw a dimension with the first basis point already given.

                If I understand, we must re-program dimension tool ?? 😲

                  Can I do smt with the observer tools ?

                  When a user action is done, the observer returns the action ??? And we just have to send the action to the tool... no ? πŸ˜•

                      The blokes at HQ would make life a lot simpler if they could provide simple GET functions (GETPoint,GetAngle,GetDistance etc.) - quite difficult and probably beyond many to do in Ruby with a tools class. If only they would apply the Sketchup 'simplicity' ethos to the API.
