Find and replace multiple components?

[tenquin]

Olá TIG!
Boa tarde!
Obrigado pelo retorno.

Desculpe se não soube me expressar corretamente, na verdade preciso que o plugin troque todos os componentes que tem um parâmetro específico, no caso o parâmetro "modeloptions=portas inferiores"

Desde já agradeço.

Yes, that's nothing like it !

You could try editing the code...

###....
dcs.each{|d|
  next unless d.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes", "modeloptions", "") == "portas inferiores"
  # this skips if it's not that type of dc ???
  p d.name # to see their names listed in the Ruby Console
  d.instances.each{|i| i.definition = defn }
  # replace with original
}
###...

Obrigado mais uma vez TIG!

Vou estudar mais um pouco e tentar fazer,
sou novo em programação mas vou tentar até conseguir. rsrs

OK

Let's consider this...
The original component is named [let's say] "DC" - so its unique-ified siblings are named DC#1, DC#2 etc...
So we can search the model's definitions for matching 'patterns' and replace their instances...
The naming has to be logical, and all instances the same...

> model=Sketchup.active_model
> defns=model.definitions
> name="DC" # perhaps you'd use an inputbox to get this 'name' ?
> defn=defns[name]
> dcs=defns.find_all{|d| d.name =~ /^#{name}#/ }
> # note how 'name' starts the match-pattern and has a following #
> model.start_operation("Un-unique #{name}", true) # one-step undo
> puts "Un-unique #{name}"
> dcs.each{|d|
>   p d.name # to see their names listed in the Ruby Console
>   d.instances.each{|i| i.definition = defn }
>   # replace with original
> }
> model.commit_operation
> puts "Done"
> 

This works within nested components etc...
You could check that the geometry/size etc of the instance of the original defn matches the instance of the to-be-un-uniqued definition, but that requires more convoluted code...

Olá TIG

Desculpe minha insistência.
Há alguns meses conversamos sobre o código acima, que faz um script que substitui componentes.
Ainda não consegui fazer com que funcionasse, criei um componente com nome DC e copiei e colei o código no console Sketchup,mas não obtive resultado.
Estou me dedicando a Ruby, mas mesmo depois de ler o livro Automatic Skechup, não consegui identificar o que está errado...

What results do you get ?
The Ruby Console will show errors and output.

You are looking for a component definition name, NOT a component instance name.
They are different things.
The component's name is displayed in the Components Browser.
Instances can have different names from their definition - this shown in Entity info - if it's selected...

@TIG

Obrigado mais uma vez por responder.
Não retorna nenhum erro, porém nenhum resultado também. Segue uma imagem.

Minha intenção é buscar os componentes por atributos dinâmicos ao invés de por nome, se poder me dá uma luz de como ficaria o código assim eu agradeço, se não, depois tentarei editar o código para se adequar ao que desejo.

[TIG]

What else do you expect ?
You have 1 component definition named 'DC'.
If you had more using that name pattern - e.g. 'DC#1', DC#2' etc.
Then DC would prevail !

The code is working just fine - but your model has got nothing in it to be processed !

Perdão TIG.
Você tem razão, eu não estava sabendo usar o código corretamente.
Agora me parece que está funcionando.
Obrigado

IF you name your components logically then a script in the form swapcomponents("-aaa","-bbb") is straightforward - and quite simple - I can talk you through it... Once you have something working vis the Ruby Console it#s easy enough to add a menu item and dialog, even a toolbar and so on...

First off - make a logical component-naming strategy/
Then write is a simple step-sheet explaining how you'd like to use the new tool... e.g.

I select various cabinets where I want to swap one type of door [and drawer] for another.
I activate the new tool tell it what code to find and what code to replace it with... and it automatically finds equivalent doors [and drawers] in the model [or perhaps SKPs in folder[s]] in ../Components/.
It then uses/loads them and replaces the current component instance with the required definition.
A dialog reports what's been changed and/or any errors.
It is one step undo-able.
For example always name doors 'Door-WWW-HHH-FINISH-CODE' and then all we have to do is swap components with the same base but a new FINISH and/or CODE - In the input you could type Door*-Oak-A and in the output type Door*-Maple-A and all doors code A would change from 'Oak' to 'Maple'; or Door*-A >>> Door*-B would swap from code A to code B - if there were no Oak versions of code B doors then the closing dialog tells you!
On a more global system *-A >>> *-B tries to swap all type A 'fitments' to type B.
If things are 'nested' - components inside groups etc then it's more tricky but not impossible...
You could also swap ironmongery from Handle-*-A >>> Handle-*-B.
See the schema ?

TIG can I ask you to post an example of this code here? Thanks.

[TIG]

You quoted my example of a step sheet...

Please outline exactly what you want to do - what to find by a pattern-match and how to rename them etc...

This thread have been around for a decade !
So what you want to do needs to be specified very precisely...
