Add a text on a point

Pauline01

Re re hello,

I try to add on my group a text.

The text will be contain the string of "adrresult"(see in my code).

I have somes things but...

In my code i want complete after : " #i want to associate the position of my text on a point
#???? position_point_of_my_text = text.point "

and

" # text=addresult
#??? textstring = text.text= addresult "

thx again...



require 'sketchup.rb'

class Vsx
  @@Obj = nil
end

def add_etiquette

  # Get "handles" to our model and the Entities collection it contains.
  model = Sketchup.active_model
  entities = model.entities

  # Create a series of "points", each a 3-item array containing x, y, and z.
  pt1 = [0, 0, 0]
  pt2 = [30, 0, 0]
  pt3 = [30, 0, 17]
  pt4 = [0, 0, 17]
  
  # Call methods on the Entities collection to draw stuff.
 # new_face = entities.add_face pt1, pt2, pt3, pt4
  group = entities.add_group
  group.entities.add_face(pt1,pt2,pt3,pt4)
  
  #i want to associate the position of my text on a point
  #???? position_point_of_my_text = text.point


  prompt = ["Zone Name"]
  val = group.get_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone")
  default = [val]

  result = UI.inputbox prompt, default, "Enter the Zone Name"
  adrresult = result[0].to_s
  group.set_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone", adrresult.to_s)
  UI.messagebox ("@ ; " + adrresult.to_s + " saved")
 
  # text=addresult
  #??? textstring = text.text= addresult
 
end

#Menu
if (not file_loaded?("zEtiquette_config.rb"))
 
    tool_menu = UI.menu "Tools"
	tool_menu.add_item("Create zone item") {
    add_etiquette
    }
	
	  
	$VSX = Vsx.new

  file_loaded("zEtiquette_config.rb")

ok thx

thomthom

note that the third argument is optional. so you only need to spesofy the point and text. something like:

group.entities.add_text('myText', position_point_of_my_text)

ok, now i want can change my text contained in a group.

In my second plugin, i have a menu to change "Name_zone" of the object selected.

I can't change the 2D text of my object, because it contained in a group of entities.

In my second plugin i want do this after "#I wish change my 2D text in the object selected
#??? "

It's possible or i delete my object and i create a new?

My code who associate my text in a group of entities.

thx again and again. I'am begining...

First plugin:



def add_etiquette

  # Get "handles" to our model and the Entities collection it contains.
  model = Sketchup.active_model
  entities = model.entities

  # Create a series of "points", each a 3-item array containing x, y, and z.
  pt1 = [0, 0, 0]
  pt2 = [30, 0, 0]
  pt3 = [30, 0, 17]
  pt4 = [0, 0, 17]
  coordinates = [0, 0, 8.5]
  
  # Call methods on the Entities collection to draw stuff.
  # new_face = entities.add_face pt1, pt2, pt3, pt4
  group = entities.add_group
  point = Geom;;Point3d.new coordinates
  group.entities.add_face(pt1,pt2,pt3,pt4)
 
  
  prompt = ["Zone Name"]
  val = group.get_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone")
  default = [val]

  result = UI.inputbox prompt, default, "Enter the Zone Name"
  adrresult = result[0].to_s
  group.set_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone", adrresult.to_s)
  group.entities.add_text adrresult.to_s, point
  UI.messagebox ("@ ; " + adrresult.to_s + " saved")
 
 
end

Second plugin:



def zonename


  
  prompt = ["Name"]
  val = Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].get_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone")
  default = [val]
  result = UI.inputbox prompt, default, "Enter the Zone Name"
  adrresult = result[0].to_s

  adr = Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].set_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone", adrresult.to_s)

  #I wish change my 2D text in the object selected text=adrresult
  #???

  UI.messagebox ("@ ; " + adr.to_s + " saved")

end





#Menu
if (not file_loaded?("zEtiquette_config2.rb"))
 
    UI.add_context_menu_handler do |menu|
      if (Sketchup.active_model.selection.length == 1)
	    menu.add_separator
	    if ((Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].get_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone")) != nil)
	
		  menu.add_item("Change Zone Name (@" + Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].get_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone").to_s + ")") { zonename }
     
	    end
      end
    end
	$VSX = Vsx.new

  file_loaded("zEtiquette_config2.rb")
end

  adr = Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].set_attribute("MyDico", "Name_zone", adrresult.to_s)

  #I wish change my 2D text in the object selected text=adrresult
  #???
  # Interate over the content of the selected group and find the first Text object. 
  # Once we have found that we can change it's text.
  group = Sketchup.active_model.selection[0]
  myText = nil
  group.entities.each { |e|
    if e.is_a?(Sketchup;;Text)
      myText = e
      break
    end
  }
  myText.text = adrresult
