Hello!
I have been trying to import multiple SKP files in my script to known points. The current model.import requires the user t click a point.
A method to import to a point would be useful… (to me any hoo)
something like:
model.importToPoint '*.skp' (100,200,300)
Ed
Try loading the SKP as a new component definition [rather than importing it] - referenced as thus:
that_definition = Sketchup.active_model.definitions.load(path_to_the_skp)
Look at the API docs for more details…
Now decide on its location:
some_transformation = Geom::Transformation.new(some_chosen_point3d)
Them use:
instance = Sketchup.active_model.active_entities.add_instance(that_definition, some_transformation)
Bish-bash-bosh…
I show the same workflow followed by explode and purging the definition list.:
Is there an equivalent way that will also work for non-.skp files? Say, .3ds or .dae models?
