  1. I made it!! ------------------------- procedure TEST; CONST overrideid=8; VAR result:BOOLEAN; BEGIN result:= SetObjPropVS(overrideid, true); result:= vsoAppendParamWidget(parameter_number,new_text, 0); END; run(TEST); -------------------------
  2. Hi, i'm trying to rename the field "Alternate Name" of one parameter, but i can't do it. I use the "SetRField" procedure to change the value of that parameter, but now i want to rename it. Somebody could help me? example (see attachment): when i choose from my "pop-up" menu "White", the third parameter "dimensione" change to "White dimension". Thanks!
  3. Thanks very much Miguel! Andrea
  4. Hi to all, i can't find the function for activate a "control point" freely movable by user. I'll try to explain better. I have a linear object, so (in 2D) i have 2 control points for start and finish. I need a third control point, visible in 2D, and i need to know x and y of this point (like the positioning of text in space tool). How can i do it? Thanks, and sorry for my english, i hope you understand what i mean. :blush:
  5. Do you plan to make your plugin capable of "parametric surface"? I mean like this http://www.grasshopper3d.com/photo/parametric-surface-03 or this http://www.grasshopper3d.com/photo/surface-design01islam-salem Your work could take vectorworks to a higher level of 3D!
  6. Thank you all! So the export method has to be improved, as i understand. I find very strange that the supplied export plugin from maxon is better than the integrated vectorworks plugin! Maybe the maxon one is more recent and will be integrated with the next update in vectorworks? I hope so. You're right Horst M., i'll get the trial... Thanks again Andrea
  7. Hi, i'm still on vectorworks 2010, so I ask you a favour. If you have vectorworks 2011 and cinema 4D, could you tell me (and, if it's possible, show me with a screenshot of cinema 4d) how the 3D model appear in cinema 4d? I explain better: -is it triangulated? -how are exported floors generated from curved polylines, or with "holes"? -how does symbols appear? Thank you, i'm evaluating the switch to 2011 and i want to understand if it really worth. sorry for my english Andrea
  8. Thanks Raymond !!! It works Thank you very much Andrea

    hellllp!

    Hi, i can't solve this problem: I have a loop that create many extrusions, and i want to rotate every single extrusion with the value "protx". The problem is that all my object is rotated (see attachment) for n:=1 to pnumero+1 do begin hprogressiva:=(n-1)*(hspazi+pspessore); BeginXtrd(hprogressiva,hprogressiva+pspessore); Rect(0,pProfondita,lunghezza,0); EndXtrd; Rotate3D(protx,0,0); end; Somebody could help me? thanks, sorry for my english! Andrea
  10. Hi, i have 2 questions i can't solve. 1) in section viewport, why intersecting solids miss some lines (see attached file)? is there a way to solve it? 2) in "section viewport-advanced properties-attributes-object behind section line", if i choose a class instead of "use attribute elements", i can't totally snap this objects. Is there a way for snapping? sorry for my english and bad translation of command, i included a screenshot in the attached file. Thanks Andrea
  11. Hi, is it possible writing a command to export 3D data of a file (like exporting 3DS, for example) with vectorscript commands? andrea
  12. Is it possible to open a poll? I'm interested too. Andrea
  13. The new plant object is a simple support for vbvisual plants! If you go to http://www.vbvisual.com you can see now "Vectorworks" among supported software. Great, but you have to spend money...
  14. Any info about new vbvisual plant object? Is it real 3D? Thanks

    Advice

    Dear Kool Aid, did you learn by yourself programming vectorscript? I'd like to know if exists a guide, a book explaining vectorscript language whith "explained examples"? Anybody knows? Good work with your window object! thanks, Andrea

    Advice

    I didn't expected so many answers thanks you all! I already tried to create a section viewport from a parallel view, and it works, but the result is not as good as the planview we can draw. And it's impossible to project 2D data (is it so?). I hope vw2010 will add a "smart" behaviour: when an object's "Z" > layer's "Z" vectorworks hide the object... dreaming? thanks again, Andrea ps. sorry for my english... hope you will understand what i mean

    Advice

    Hi, i need an advice. Imagine you have a single wall with more than 1 window one over the other, like in the attachment. How do you draw them? My "problem" is the resulting plan, where you see one window over the other. I found very uncomfortable to split the wall in more layers, because i don't need them. Is there another way to obtain a clean plan with the desidered window without splitting the wall in more layers? Thanks Andrea
  18. Hi, I love vectorworks but in my opinion it has some issues that nemetschek should solve: 1) print output: i use osx, and i have made some tests (laser print). -Printing directly from vectorworks with "quartz" activated and deactivated is really different when printing (without quartz print is better but transparencies are not possible) -Exporting a pdf and printing from adobe reader is much better than direct vw print. 2) 3d modeling: now with "parasolid" we can make really great 3D operations.... but when i "fit a wall to roof", with wall parallel to the "base line" vectorworks simply change wall height, while it shoult cut it with the roof ("offset" field is not a solution in "fit to walls") so sections will be perfect. 3) render engine: -very very slow renders, i hope that nemetschek will use snow leopard new features to improve it -need a separate application or thread to render, so if renders are slow we at least could keep working -why allplan support "maxwell render export" and vw does not??? Some wishes: 1) vector shadows in elevations (like archicad, for example), separate from light objects 2) a "user mode" that only admit to set attributes by class (no exceptions with attributes toolbox) 3) indentable layers like classes (class-subclass) Sorry for my english, i hope it will be intelligible thanks
