How can I create a 1 meter square plane in Ruby?

[jrstoup]

This seems like it should be fairly trivial, but for the life of me I can't find the answer I'm looking for so I'm counting on you guys to come through for me. Here is my problem, I want to create a plane that is exactly 1 meter square as in this example:

pt1 = [0,0,0]
pt2 = [val,0,0]
pt3 = [val,val,0]
pt4 = [0,val,0]

my_face = entities.add_face [pt1, pt2, pt3, pt4]

I need to figure out the relationship between the unit system sketchup uses and meters. Does anyone have a clue as to how I can do this?

Sketchup uses inches, but provides methods so you can use any measure you like -> http://code.google.com/apis/sketchup/docs/ourdoc/numeric.html

val = 1.m # 1 meter
pt1 = [0,0,0]
pt2 = [val,0,0]
pt3 = [val,val,0]
pt4 = [0,val,0]

my_face = entities.add_face [pt1, pt2, pt3, pt4]
