Can the Ruby API monitor the person’s actions in drawing faces with the drawing device? Every time the person attracts a floor get the coordinate info of that floor.
I discovered the related code, however I don’t know management MyEntitiesObserver to run or cease. I’d admire any recommendation, thanks!
class MyEntitiesObserver < Sketchup::EntitiesObserver
def onElementAdded(entities, entity)
places "onElementAdded: #{entity}"
if entity.typename == "Face"
p entity.persistent_id
finish
finish
finish
# Connect the observer
Sketchup.active_model.entities.add_observer(MyEntitiesObserver.new)See the instance right here
Entities #remove_observer-instance_method
By the way in which:entity.typename == "Face" comparability is sluggish, use entity.is_a?(Sketchup::Face) as a substitute.

You’ll doubtless additionally want to connect a ToolsObserver to the mannequin’s toolstack expecting the change to the Line device.
To do this, you want a ModelObserver that additionally watches for modifications to the energetic edit path, so you’ll be able to watch the active_entities.
To do this you want an AppObserver that watches the applying for when fashions are created or opened.
AppObserver sees mannequin load or create —> attaches new hybrid ModelObserver —> attaches itself to it’s Instruments assortment —> which is able to begin watching the active_entities when the Line Software is in use.
This instance makes use of the extension submodule because the AppObserver object, since there’s solely one software and solely one AppObserver will ever be wanted. (Ie, … we do not ever want an occasion of a category object for an AppObserver object.)
Right here is an instance … (to view – click on to increase) …
