Isn't windowizer already make the same ?

thomthom

Windowizer generates window components. This is just plain offset.

Remus, please, post some image in the first post so that we can have some clue what it does (and I can rip it for TDC, too)

A "window component" is a pure abstraction. With glass inset =0 it makes the same plain offset+ additional options (i.e. materials assignment, edit and eraze in the future)

Does the faces have to be on the same plane?

remus

No, the faces can be on any plane. It wont work on curvy things, though.

As for windowizer doing the same thing, it probably can, and i think Fred06's offset on surface could do it as well, i just fancied writing it for a bit of practice.

Thanks, but does not work.

If you have a solution, thank you

remus

Could you open the ruby console (window->ruby console), run the script and post whatever comes up in the console?

Remus - do you have RickW's [free from Smustard] 'offset.rb' and elcorto doesn't ?

DIEGO-RODRIGUEZ

Thanks Tig, I had no offset.rb.
Now works fine

remus

I havent got it, but im guessing its included in some other script. Thanks for the pointer by the way, i'll add it to the 1st post.

It's the simple things that are often the most complicated !
