    Hello dear sketchup experts,

    I like to bring a software with game information together with sketchup.
    The game informations are the view vector and the map positions of the
    camera in the game (ready working).
    For now I like to load a car model in sketchup and rotate this model
    with the ingame view vector for a direction display as a first step.

    Now my problem: I do not see a method to change the cam or the model
    orientation or one of the model details in realtime. There is a
    cinematic option in sketchup which allows some parameter change like I
    need but I get not the trick how you could do that over the ruby API. It
    looks like the ruby API is only written for some menu extension and
    smart tools.

    The question to the experts: Is sketchup able to be controlled from the
    outer ruby API to control some model details like orientation and
    length/size.

    regards
    SirNoName
