you can't not change that line, "c:/temp/_image.png" IS your image name...
each new one will overwrite the previous...
if you want different names that line has to change...

Then, what if I don't specify an image file path? Only the name and extension of image file will be remained and it looks like it can be treated... using #{name}
Hi, I'm working on 'export image' by myself and the result was not bad.
Now, I'm trying to export some images with different name. The problem is, I already set up the specific name. I couldn't get next image with different name before I change the name in code.
Maybe, I have to treat the name as variable but don't know how to do
could you please help me with it? Here, I'm sharing the code
require 'sketchup.rb'
def exportimage
model = Sketchup.active_model
entities = model.entities
view = model.active_view
# Set the camera properties
eye = [0, 0, -1000]
target = [0, 0, 0]
up = [0, 100, 0]
# Create the camera and make it active
cam = Sketchup;;Camera.new eye, target, up
view.camera = cam
view.zoom_extents
# Set file property
keys = {
# Naming file
;filename => "c;/temp/_image.png",
# Pixel setting
;width => 500,
;height => 500,
# Tranparent setting
;transparent => false
}
view.write_image keys
end # def ExportImage

if( not file_loaded?("exportimage.rb") )
add_separator_to_menu("Plugins")
if $submenu!=nil
$submenu.add_item("ExportImage") { exportimage }
else
UI.menu("Plugins").add_item("ExportImage") { exportimage }
end
end

with the code. All the name of images I produced was '_image'. I would like to get images have different name without changing the line "c:/temp/_image.png", in the code.
Yes right, I was talking about adding 'UI.input box' to the codes and would like to make the coordinates act like variables. Hmmm.. X and Y coordinates will correspond to length and width of rectangle, and Z coordinates will correspond to height of generated rectangle.
After making rectangle automatically, objects in space will be cut by the rectangle. It is like a process of making cross section. This work could have been finished manually, but so many objects are involved in my work. Defining all entities and being cut and removed by rectangle automatically would be easier by making codes
Hi
I'm a beginner at making codes and am currently doing a work which 3D model is changed to 2D plan(its similar with 'section plane') with a code which I personally made. I used to change the size of retangle by inputting numbers into the coordinates(p1~p5), but it was a troublesome work. Inputting number to a created box may be more handy for my main work. Could you please help me create an box which can input coordinates? The codes I made is shown below
model = Sketchup.active_model
entities = model.entities
group_a=entities.add_group entities.to_a
entities_a=group_a.entities
trans_a=group_a.transformation
group_b=entities.add_group
entities_b=group_b.entities
p1 = [0, 0, 1000.mm]
p2 = [15000.mm, 0, 1000.mm]
p3 = [15000.mm, 15000.mm, 1000.mm]
p4 = [0, 15000.mm, 1000.mm]
p5 = [0, 0, 1000.mm]
entities_b.add_face(p1,p2,p3,p4,p5)
trans_b=group_b.transformation
entities_a.intersect_with true, trans_a, group_b, trans_b , true, group_b
group_b.explode
group_a.erase!
Hello, I'm looking for plugins which is about removing invisible area as shown in the attached picture. In the view of the vertex of the cone, the parts of the cone shape which has passed through the hexahedron is invisible coverage and It can be removed to represent visible coverage only. The three cone shapes are manually made by hand. I would like to make the process automatically by clicking a kind of icon. Can you please give me related plugins or ideas for creating the tool?
I attached a picture to show clear intention. I wanna remove blue box in green box with trim, split
Hello, I'm beginner in Sketchup. My question is simple and mentioned it on title. I couldn't remove shapes inside of other shape. I transparentized bigger shape and tried to remove smaller shape in bigger one, but it didn't work and even clicking. Furthermore, even clicking shape in bigger shape was really hard. I had to click it with ctrl and shift keys. Is there anyone who can give me clear answer?
