Hello,
I'm new to sketchup, though I'm an architect with years of experience with AutoCAD, Rhino, Flash, etc., etc., etc., and am also an able programmer (actionscript, html, javascript). I'm loving sketchup because unlike the more complex CAD apps, it seems to have exciting features like being able to play on web-sites and imbue elements with scripted behaviors. I also love that it embraces the open-source community, which makes its potential so much greater in the long run . I'm seeing a lot of potentials of communicating radical ideas in 3D to a more general audience that I just can't do with these programs over the web.
So here's my first question. I see that both 2D and 3D objects/components in sketchup can be made to always face the camera. But is it possible to make an object or component always face another object?
If not, what would it take to write a plugin in Ruby (I've never coded in Ruby, but I'm hearing it's not so hard...)
Let me know, thanks.
