New API doc - typos and questions

Dont pretend your not in on it as well
on a more serious note, it seems a shame to miss out on the ever so powerful ruby based capabilities of sketchup, so i thought i'd try my hand at it and see if i got anywhere.
I reckon i could just about right a box making script at the moment just as long as you dont want to change your box at all...

Seems that
InstanceObserver.onClose
is dead as well. http://code.google.com/apis/sketchup/docs/ourdoc/instanceobserver.html#onClose
ButonOpen
works. -

@unknownuser said:
For example, if a user has double-clicked into a component to edit its geometry, and then double clicked into a sub-group to edit that, the active_path might contain:
And there it stops. Doesn't actually display an example.

Self note: We should add these codes to the send_action docs:

# This is an example of an observer that watches tool interactions. class MyToolsObserver < Sketchup;;ShadowInfoObserver def onActiveToolChanged(tools, tool_name, tool_id) UI.messagebox("onActiveToolChanged; " + tool_name.to_s) end end # Attach the observer. Sketchup.active_model.tools.add_observer(MyToolsObserver.new)
Note that it refers to
Sketchup::ShadowInfoObserver
instead ofSketchup::ToolsObserver

Does this list work 'across-platforms' - my understanding was that PCs and Macs differ ?
If there are such codes it makes like a lot easier...
Some "wrong": Sketchup.send_action 21513 >>> opens the Outliner ???

The manual says the argument should be either
true
orfalse
, but the example sets it to3

The FAQ page lists some sites that carry/catalog ruby scripts. the Sketchucation extensions index (thanks to Jim!) would also be a great resource to add to that list now

It'd be nice if the ToolsObserver listed the full list of tools IDs.I've begun a list here which associates constants to the IDs for convenient use in scripts: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=18124

In the back of my mind I have the idea the the tool id's were not reliable and shouldn't be used; but I can't remember why.

I thought is was the tool names as on Mac the first four characters where truncated? No?

http://code.google.com/apis/sketchup/docs/ourdoc/componentinstance.html#definition
The
ComponentInstance.definition
example does not include the method in the example anywhere, so by definition it is not really an example.This is the given example:
point = Geom;;Point3d.new 10,20,30 transform = Geom;;Transformation.new point model = Sketchup.active_model entities = model.active_entities path=Sketchup.find_support_file "Bed.skp", "Components/Components Sampler/"

Any ideas about a way to mark these errors as they are fixed?

We could ask Coen to have a strike-through BBC tag. [deleted] or something...
Or, put a big fat FIXED in bold green. Might be easier. -
From Image.explode:
entitiesarray an Array object of entities if successful
which I interpret as the face and edges created in the explosion. However, the result from my testing always returns an empty array.
-
I see that behaviour as well: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=17150&hilit=+explode

add polygon detail just repeats the add_point example.

ButonOpen
works.Thomas,
I'm about to push an update with all of the recent changes above. This one puzzled me, though. The ToolsObserver examples work fine for me on the onOpen and onClose. Can you clarify what "dead as well" means?
@unknownuser said:

Tig, these action codes only work on the PC, but I still think I'll add them to the docs. There are some cool things in there that PC-only shops might need.
Thanks, guys! New update should be live in the next day or so.

Dead as in: I never see it trigger.
