Plugin Help
-
Hi everyone,
I am quite new to SketchUp and Ruby so not too sure on a few things.
I've made a plugin for a project I'm working on for myself everything works as needed but this it where it gets tricky.I'm trying to "automate" the creation of a basic design (a room). If you select the plugin in the menu it will generate the design, but I want to find out if there is a way to execute this via code (without manually clicking the plugin).
So basically I want to open SketchUp from code and then execute generation of the design. Is this possible?
Apologies if my explanation is not the best.Thanks in advance.

What you suggest could be done.
You'd just have set up your code to execute as SketchUp loads, rather than giving the user the choice.BUT this would be very restrictive !
With your concept, every time a user opened SketchUp it'd run your Plugin to make a room ?
What's so bad about having it like 99.9% of tools, which run off a menu entry [or toolbar or context-menu] ?
You have given a limited description of your tool, but I suspect that you don't really want to do what you have so far said...
