Is this possible? [code] batch export
-
Hey guys, thanks for your help so fast!
I want to export to
.3ds
.dwg
.dae
.objI would be willing to bash my return button a few times to make those pop ups go away. Is it possible that way?
Keep in my I have no idea how ruby's work, so that piece of code looks really fancy to me but what to do with it is beyond me.
-
Using a dot-slash ( ./ ) puts the export files in the same folder as the original file (assumes the file has been saved somewhere), which might be more convenient.
Regardless, nice one-line coding
Too bad this wasn't issued specifically as a ruby challenge item... -
Rob,
To export to the types you specified, just change the stuff in parentheses after the %w at the beginning - something like
%w(3ds dwg dae obj)......
and leave the rest of the code intact.
-
And I enter the code into the ruby entry console? or could I form it into a nice button?
-
Make 2 nice buttons and post them here. a 16X16 pixel and a 32X32 pixel. Someone will do it.

Hey Rob,
I just continued where Jim and Rick left off.
Put the contents of what is in the attached .zip into you plugins directory and restart SketchUp.
You'll see your icon that you made. Open a model click on the tool bar icon. The model will be exported to c:\ with the models name i.e. whatever the name says in the Title bar. I also gave the icon a tool tip and the status bar text.
Let me know if that works. This is a first draft and I'm sure it could be better.
BTW the defect Todd was talking about "not suppressing the results dialog after dwg export" is fixed and will be in the next version of SketchUp.
Hope this helps, I hope it doesn't suck....it good to breath clean air

Thanks alot Brad!
This will save me and the guys over at FF quite a bit of time!If anyone is interested in advancing this ruby,
A window in which you can tick the exports and specify their file names and their location would be awesome.But for now this works perfectly! It indeed is nice to breath clean air Brad

Any progress on this one?
I used it the other day and all the files showed up with no name, just a .dwg .obj etc...
I would welcome a more refined script.Thanks.
