How to create the pulldown menu for DC

goga63

Hi !
I learn to write scripts for Sketchup, вut has rested against a wall...
I can set attributes of components this code:

entity.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','price', '0'
entity.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_price_label', 'price'
entity.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_price_formlabel', 'Price'
entity.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_price_units', 'STRING' entity.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_price_access', 'TEXTBOX'

It works!
But I could never understand how to write code using meta attributes to create the pulldown menu for DC ...
Show me a code fragment which it does.
Thanks !

You know where the DC Attributes are stored, so now you can inspect the "dynamic_attributes" Dictionary to see how to recreate any DC you find.

Here is a basic example of a dropdown list with 3 options:

    sang_def = sang.definition

    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','test', 'yes'
    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_access', 'LIST'
    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_formlabel', 'My test'
    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_label', 'my_test'
    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_options ','&yes=yes&no=no'
    sang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_units', 'STRING'

Result on the image
What do I do not so?

I have found a problem!
It was necessary to use a symbol " instead of ' .

You have an extra space in this line:

ang_def.set_attribute 'dynamic_attributes','_test_options[highlight=#ff0000:2ph6o4z3]_[/highlight:2ph6o4z3]','&yes=yes&no=no'

Yes, thanks!
All has earned.
