Export Object Names

[Mark_M]

Does anyone have a script, or capability to create one, to export the name, size and coordinates of objects to a csv text file. I model a lot of different things before I build them and would like to be able to export a parts list.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't know of a script.

Not sure what you want in the size - if you want the bounding box, you may need to calculate that from the vertices. Easier if you want just the number of vertices.

If you have some unix tools, like grep, installed you could probably do something like this with a .ac file:

egrep "OBJECT|numvert" car.ac

OBJECT world
OBJECT poly
numvert 102
OBJECT poly
numvert 61
OBJECT poly
numvert 61
OBJECT poly
numvert 61
OBJECT poly
numvert 61

I basically have all items named with their sizes, ie: (Lumber 2 x 4 x 92.625).
So I really just need to export object names.
