Can anybody direct me to the Ruby code for the default SketchUp instruments? I’m curious about taking a look at how the arc device works and wish to make one thing related as an extension, however with my very own customizations that swimsuit my wants. I’m utilizing SU23.
I don’t consider the native instruments are coded with Ruby.
Attention-grabbing. Are you aware the language they’re coded in and if I can move that data via externally, sort of like an extension.
I don’t know the language they’re coded in however I count on re-engineering the code can be a violation of the EULA. You need to verify on that. There are already extensions that may draw varied kinds of arcs. They’re coded in Ruby. As a substitute of reinventing the wheel why don’t you take a look at them. Perhaps they already do what you want.
Effectively, there are points with that for my use case. I need excessive precision, and among the arc creation instruments don’t all the time provide it. Once I go to code my very own, I get some actually good precision, however I discover that among the final values are a bit totally different.
For instance, let’s imagine I need to discover the arc size of an arc of radius 30 and a central angle of 45 levels. Mathematically, that’s quite simple (Math::PI/4)*30.
However once I take that worth, and assign it to the suitable begin and finish angles, it produces an almost excellent worth.

_Extension: 23.561944901923447
SU Arc device: 23.56194490192345
Edit: (added these underscores to get it to align for higher visibility.)
What’s fascinating is once I throw in a large 200 digit calculation and simply skip all the maths within the editor it provides me the identical outcome because the arc device does. I do know this sounds silly as a result of I’m nitpicking over a ridiculously small decimal worth however I simply need to make the very best device potential.
