Problem with Tcl/TK and AC3D
I am writing a script to implement 3D guidelines (a very useful measurement and alignment tool) in AC3D.
For this I need to read the coordinates of the currently selected vertices. I begin with: set Vertex [ list ] If there is only one vertex selected, no problem: set Vertex [ ac3d get_selection_centre ] If there are several selected vertices, I thought I could use: set Vertex [ ac3d get_selected_objects ] Apparently, what is returned is an empty list. Can you help? Thierry |

Re: Problem with Tcl/TK and AC3D
That will give you a list of the AC3D objects (which will be nothing in vertex or surface mode).
I don't think it's possible to do what you want in a script but it should be easy to add some new commands. If you can give me more info on the commands you would like to see inside AC3D, I may be able to add them. |

Re: Problem with Tcl/TK and AC3D
I'm fairly confident that what I want to do can be done in a script, given two new commands.
First of all, let me convince you that I am serious about this by completing the 3D guideline script (for which I don't need anything new). At the moment, here is the GUI. It will show what I mean by "3D guideline". Cheers, Thierry |
