Hello Didier !

Regarde la méthode send_action pour le peu qu'on peut faire (take a look at send_action method)

Sketchup.send_action 21410

But I can't control the action process !
For example, to find the dimension between 2 points given by the program... Not by the user !

Any idea ?

Hi Oscar !

get_current_unit_(a)

What value do I put the setting up of "a"?

Ok !!
I tried to find a system to allow the same thing, but I was not expecting something like this!
Thank you! It will greatly help me!

Je m'étais inscrit ici il y a un moment, mais je poste pour la première fois aujourd'hui. Je travaille plus souvent sur Autocad que Sketchup..

Et bah prends garde, ça va changer
Je n'utilise presque plus autocad ! Mais bon c'est un cas parmi d'autres...
Quoiqu'il en soit bon premier post !! Pilou s'occupe de toi, tu es entre de bonnes mains !

Hello AdamB !

@adamb said:

Sketchup.active_model.entities.add_line([0,0,0], [3,1,4])

yes, I know these methods.

"Command" function can use ALL the existing commands... AND also user commands... Very interesting !

@unknownuser said:

Sketchup.active_model.entities.add_text "Allez Les Bleus", [5,6,7]

For example How can you add a dimension...

Thank you for your answer !

Pieroka, comme sur CadXP ?

Salut Regis !

C'est quoi ton outil vers 3min38, tu utilises une icône et tu as l'air de cliquer sur les arêtes cachées...
Je vois pas du tout !

Sinon, vidéo DE-MENTE !
Merci à toi !

Hi every body !

Before using sketchup, which became completely indispensable , I used autocad and its language Lisp. The lisp contains a very interesting feature: the "command" function.
It allows you to use all tools autocad in the running. All the arguments are replies to messages orders.
Example : (command "_line" "0,0,0" "10,0,10" "50,50,50")
And to close the line command : (command "")

Do you think it would be possible to create a similar function in ruby?

PS : Sorry for that frenglish !!!

J'n'arrive pas à mettre le fichier sketchup et ma photo sur ce post.

En bas de la fenêtre du cadre de rédaction des messages, tu as un onglet "options". Et à coté "Upload attachment" !! Voilà ! A toi de jouer maintenant !

Hello !

Hi Tig !
Excellent Plug-in !!
I have translated it in French language...

I tried to create similar script... It works differently, and I have some problems...
1- Select a face with the old texture
2- Choose the new texture in the 'paint' palette
3- Apply "Add to the model" in the right click context menu in the palette
4- Run the script.

The third stage is a problem. I can't add the texture directly with the code... And if you don't do that, the texture is not saved. Do you have any method ??

#Replace texture definition of a face with the active texture in the palette

def process_textures(entities, anctxt, newtxt)
	entities.each do |entity| 
		case entity.typename
		when 'Group'
			process_textures entity.entities, anctxt, newtxt
		when 'ComponentInstance'
			if entity.material == anctxt
					entity.material = newtxt
			end
			edef = entity.definition
			process_textures edef.entities, anctxt, newtxt
		when 'Face'
			if entity.material == anctxt
					entity.material = newtxt
			end
			if entity.back_material == anctxt
					entity.back_material = newtxt
			end
		end
	end
end

def reptxt
	model = Sketchup.active_model
	ss = model.selection
	model.start_operation "Remplacer textures"
	if model.materials.current !=nil
		active_material = model.materials.current.name
		puts "Texture active = " + active_material
		if ss.empty?
			UI.messagebox("Aucune selection.")
			return nil
		else
			ent = ss[0]
			if ent.typename == "Face"
				puts "\nL'entité sélectionnée est de type Face."
				if ent.material !=nil
					process_textures model.active_entities, ent.material, active_material
					model.commit_operation
				end
			else
				UI.messagebox("\nL'entité sélectionnée n'est pas de type Face (" + ss[0].typename + ").")
			end
		end
	else
		UI.messagebox("Aucune texture active.")
		return nil
	end
end

if not file_loaded?("reptxt.rb")
	UI.menu("Plugins").add_item("Replace texture definition"){reptxt}
end

Thank you !

fr_Global_Material_Change.rb

Like that ?

class Sketchup;;Model
	def entlast
		nb = self.active_entities.length
		
		return self.active_entities[nb-1]
	end
end

Wouah !!
I wanted to do same thing but I but I didn't know how to...
How can you do that : Sketchup.active_model.entlast please ???

Hello !

To RW or TIG or Jim Foltz or any guru: Any chance to overwrite the default SU menu ?
For instance I would like to have, in the Draw menu, a menu "Arc" with sub-menus to add to the standard "Arc" option my own scripts there. Is it possible ?

It's an excellent question !!!

Can anyone answer ?

Hi !
At the request of Jim , Here is a script selects last entity drawn.
The original subject is here.

the first script places a shortcut in the plugins folder. It selects only the last entity.

Another script, from Didier Bur, places a shortcut in the context menu. It adds the last entity with the current selection.

The last script is for developpers. It works like autolisp function.

Sketchup.active_model.entlast

With this last script, you can re-write the others !

model = Sketchup.active_model
model.selection.add(model.entlast)

And

model = Sketchup.active_model
model.selection.clear
model.selection.add(model.entlast)

Thanks to Didier Bur and Rick Wilson !
