Currently you can't insert or edit dimension entities or their settings with Ruby.

Grmbl... Is it a v7 upgrade???

@unknownuser said:

A script work-around is to insert a component [skp file] that is simply a dimension drawn from the origin say 1 unit long in the x (red), with the text-style/arrow-style preset as required, your script then inserts it at picked-point 1, and then the script rotates/scales it in its length etc to suit picked-point 2 etc. The dimension shown updates accordingly.

Thanks for the method !
I want to make a script that erase all units in texts... Verz easy in lisp language, but not in ruby....

Thank you TIG !

Hi !
Access to "dimensions" entities informations via scripts seems really hard in Sketchup ...
How can you access to the dimension text ? Modify it ? Start point of the dimension ? end point ? Line weight ? Arrow ? etc...
Is it a block ? A group ? Can't explode it...

Please Help me !!!
Thank you !

Salut !
Le script "sketchup.rb" se trouve dans le dossier "tools".

hello....

Ouch.. A purge of the drawing, perhaps ?
Sorry, it's in french...

This post can also help you. Curved faces make the drawing heaviest.

Excuse me....

A new version has been updated in the script's post.

@unknownuser said:

a "transform to group" command

New version can transform all components in the right click selection.

@unknownuser said:

I get an error message on opening SU after copying in your .rb

!!! I have no problem here !!! Could someone test this script ???
Mac or PC ?

@unknownuser said:

I ran the other .rb I received- it definitely works,

Can you show us this script, please ?

@unknownuser said:

but I had to delete and purge 90% of the model

New version asks if you want to purge.

EDIT : New version with TIG advices !
EDIT : New version with bugs fixes ! Thank you Plot Paris !

Hi plot-paris !

@unknownuser said:

however, I can't transform a selection of components to groups anymore. now I have to right cklick the instances one by one, telling them to become a group, which costs a lot of time.

Strange... It works without problem here...
Can you open ruby console before running the tool and show the matter returned inside the console here, please ?

If you want to convert all components, don't select anything, it will convert all components in the drawing.

Hello TIG !

@tig said:

why not make a new group containing the instance and then explode the instance

Great idea !!! I have not thought about it... I have updated the script...

@unknownuser said:

You can name the group to match the instance

Also updated !

@unknownuser said:

It takes the group's name...

Only if the group has a name...
Otherwise, we must compare all groups, see which are the same ... If so transform them into components with same definition! Quite complicated...

Thank you for the advices !!

Group to component is really more complicated...
Each group is different, no definition...

I will try to make smt.

Petit tuto fait maison, donc pas de rigolade, siouplé.

Quelques détails en plus :
Il faut supprimer toutes les scènes existantes.
Sélectionner la courbe avant d'activer l'outil flightpath.
Attention, juste, avec 1 metre par seconde, tu auras le droit à 169 scènes...
Penser à virer le délai entre les scènes.

Voilàààà !

Can I do smt with the observer tools ?

When a user action is done, the observer returns the action ??? And we just have to send the action to the tool... no ?
