@unknownuser said:
This Bounding Box includes rotation, so X, Y , Z sizes are not object sizes.
Is there a way to get exact sizes of objects (or groups,entities.. any kind of selection)according to local ("objects") or world coordinate system? (Sorry if my terminology is wrong).
Here is my solution:
b = instance.definition.bounds
t = instance.transformation
x = ((b.max.x-b.min.x) * t.xscale)
y = ((b.max.y-b.min.y) * t.yscale)
z = ((b.max.z-b.min.z) * t.zscale)
Hope it helps
Have fun!
Thank you Masters.
I have another problem:
I wrote code to make BOM base on ComponentReport of TIG. Then I place data on a html datatable.So I have to replace all "\n" by "<br>" like this:
des=c.definition.description
des=des.gsub("\n","<br>")
Then the datatable looks good. Then I save data in a .xlsx file. Still look good when openned in Excel. But when I inserted it to LayOut, it create "x000D" before every new line in cell. Please help me how to solve this. Thanks a lottt.
Hi there,
Im beginner to Sketchup ruby,
Im writing something like this:
a = instance.parent.layer.name
with "instance" is a component instance placed inside a group/component. "instance.parent" returns a ComponentDefinition, not the instance, so that i cant get the layer's name i wanted.
Is there some way for me can get this?
Thanks.
I have some tips you can make your Sketchup's 2D scenes better before send to Layout.

Hope you like it.
Make your scenes ready to LayOut!
Hope you like it
I think that function will be very goood for templating for projects.
There were a log, right? because Sketchup have "undo/redo" functions.
You can record, and than playback for some multi-function, can translate logs to ruby or add a button for it on toolbar, etc...
Were there a plugin can do somthing like that?
I can make diffrence templates and run like in this video.
But how can i "export" these templates to run in another .skp file?
Does anyone know how, please help me,
Thanks

I found it's not a bug on layout. It a bug on "rotate plan view" plugin from TIG. It made layout didn't recognize the scene as an ortho top standard view scene, then the dimension display the same number in any directions.
Can fix it by choose "top (relative)" in "Sketchup Model/View/Standard Views"
