VectorScript Language Extension (Visual Studio Code)

I created a Visual Studio Code extension.

This extension provides syntax highlighting for VectorScript.

Hi,

 

Just tried for the first time your plugin, it's quite interesting. I Install everything and did run de script. Vectorworks is launching when I run the script from visual studio, but is not doing anything from the script. I don't see the writing hello!!!

 

I maybe did something wrong or missing some setting into visual studio. do we have to put the script to some particular folder?? and which version is supposed to work. for the moment is launching the V20 but I also have the V21....how we can setup the version we want to use for example????

 

Hope you have some, solution, but will follow your work for sure.

Hi, Miguel

 

Sorry,
This extension cannot choose which Vectorworks to run.

- Windows : Active Vectorworks

- Mac : Vectorworks 2021

If you don't see the Hello script,
Please try running VS Code and VW as an administrator.

 

Regards,
Kazumasa

Hi Kazumasa,

 

Thanks for your reply. after opening both as administrator it works perfectly.

Well done, I can now test directly my script from visualCode which is really great.

 

I also realise that it seems the active layer name you apply the script is important. It work for design layer1 but not with other name layer. That's Correct???

 

regards,

 

Miguel
