Grouping a selection of component instances

chrisglasier · 3 Jan 2009, 07:15

I want to group these component instances and the container, move it and then explode the group. I have ruby code for selecting and moving, but I cannot figure out the code for making the group and exploding it. I would really appreciate help.

Thanks

Hi Chris,

It's not documented, but try something like this:


grp = entities.add_group(selection)

Works like a dream - many thanks! To explode I just need to identify the group like this?

entities[entityNo].explode

Yes the explode works as well.

Thanks
