Dialogs.ShowPropertyListBox seems broken

Hi,

It seems Dialogs.ShowPropertyListBox is broken, I cannot get it to work in V6 while the code below works fine in V6

import Rhino

Rhino.UI.Dialogs.ShowPropertyListBox('title', 'message', ['items'], ['values'])

UPDATE
forgot to send system info and while checking that I realized I got a message about the RhinoScript plugin not loading, It might be related? If I type RunScript or Loadscript rhino reports it’s an unknown command

@chanley can you check if your RhinoScript plugin is loaded by running runscript command?

Update my system info:

Hrm, Yes, I get the same error when running LoadScript or Runscript, (Unknown Command).
in the plugin manager, I see that it looks like it’s not loaded? (not sure if this is related?)

Thanks for checking
I remembered seeing a similar issue before so I found it and hooked up to that thread:

We’ll have to wait for someone at RMA to check on it @dale are you able to help us out?

I unchecked the enabled box for the rhinoscript plugin, then checked “ask to load disabled plugins”, and restarted, after trying to reload, I got this. (looks like a bug?)

This seems to work here:

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
objs = rs.GetObjects("Select Objects")
if objs:
    names = []
    for obj in objs:
        name = rs.ObjectName(obj)
        if name is None: name=""
        names.append(name)
    results = rs.PropertyListBox(objs, names, "Modify object name(s)")
    if results:
        for i in xrange(len(objs)):
            rs.ObjectName( objs[i], results[i] )

Thanks for the reply, I get your script to work as well as the example I posted
Also rhinoscript plugin is loaded now and all seems ok.
All that was inbetween this are a couple of restarts one was after I did a repair as per Pascals recommendation in another thread.

However after that repair and a restart the plugin still did not load…

We best leave it for now and I’ll report back if I have the issue popping up again.

Thanks
-Willem

for conclusion, after reading, I also performed a repair, and then a restart, and the issue seems to have gone away.
