Creating text objects and outputting them as normal Rhino geometry

Hi @piac, thanks for pointing it out.

Hmm, okay, I’ll add it here then if it helps explain the components any.

components.zip (1.8 MB)

The batch file is inside the folder components → sortal-setup → setup.bat. It’s more a copy and paste method, and it pastes the external library (Sortal) plus other libraries like enum, future and pasteurize inside C:\Program Files (x86)\Rhinoceros 5\Plug-ins\IronPython\Lib\site-packages in your desktop, so that’s where you can find them when deleting them later on.

Hmm, so something like this?

#region baking
def BakeGeometry(self, doc, att, id):
    id = sy.Guid.Empty
    
    if self.m_value is None:
        return false, id
    
    if att is None:
        att = doc.CreateDefaultAttributes()
    
    id = doc.Objects.AddText(self.m_value, att)
    try:
        System.Forms.MessageBox.Show('!!!')
        return True, id
    except:
        System.Forms.MessageBox.Show('???')
        return True, id
