Baking List Of Views

[michaelvollrath]

Thank you so much @AndyPayne ! I was hoping it was this simple but couldn’t figure out how to make the view info work for me.

Much appreciated!

Here’s the code I ended up with:

import Rhino
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
import scriptcontext as sc

CVs = Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.NamedViews
Current_View_Names = []
for cv in CVs:
    Current_View_Names.append(cv.Name)

def bake_views():
    for name, view in zip(N, V):
        # Get/Set Viewport Info
        viewport = Rhino.Display.RhinoViewport() 
        viewport.Name = name
        viewport.SetViewProjection(view, False)

        if name in Current_View_Names:
            # Check If The Existing Named View Has Changed Camera Position At All
            exv_index = CVs.FindByName(name)
            existing_view = CVs[exv_index]
            if existing_view.Viewport.CameraLocation != view.CameraLocation and existing_view.Viewport.CameraDirection != view.CameraDirection:
                # Remove existing view
                sc.doc = Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc
                rs.DeleteNamedView(name)

                # Add the new view
                Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.NamedViews.Add(Rhino.DocObjects.ViewInfo(viewport))
                
                #Refresh The Viewport If It Is Currently The Modifed View
                if rs.CurrentView() == name:
                    rs.RestoreNamedView(name)
                sc.doc = ghdoc
        else:
            # Add View(s) To Document
            Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.NamedViews.Add(Rhino.DocObjects.ViewInfo(viewport))

    return V

if B:
    bake_views()

I expanded the code to accept a boolean allowing it to be “active” and if a named view does not exist, it adds it, if a named view camera changes its position, it updates the current named views by deleting the changed views and readding it. Ideally I would like to keep the view and just modify the required settings but wasn’t having any luck there.
