Creating a plugin from python scripts

Hello everyone

I’m currently trying to create my own plugin from python scritps for my personal use. The first of these python script is to quickly assign specific colors to selected curves by just clicking a button. I tried using it with the RunPythonScript command and it works perfectly, just as I want it to.
But then I tried to use the Rhino Script Compiler in order to compile that first script into a plugin and it didn’t work, the list of commands used in the script isn’t visible, only the name of the .py script is visible.
Do I have to make a separate Python script for each of the different colors I want to assign and then load them into the Rhino Script Compile? It honestly sounds like a lot of operations for something as simple as this so I think there’s surely another solution

Hi Quentin,

Have you seen this Rhino - Creating Rhino/Grasshopper Script Plugins? I’ve followed it to make a working Rhino plugin from Python.

Good luck
Jeremy

Hello Jeremy and thank you for your answer!

I saw that page already but as I’m using Rhino 7 I don’t have access to these features unfortunately. Luckily I managed to find a way to make it work perfectly in another way!

Thanks for your help
