File paths for linked blocks

Hello,
I wonder if it is a bug or I just cannot manage the situation…
I have quite a lot of blocks in my models, many of them linked ones. Sometimes I have to move all the design folder to a new location (I mean, to another folder), and it is a real pain to change all the access paths. At the McNeel Wiki there is an info how paths can be set, i.e. as relative or absolute ones. Good enough for me, but trying to change the blocks property doesn’t work, as Rhino instantly converts blocks to embedded ones. What am I doing wrong? I use Rhino 6.
Cheers, Jaro

Hi Jaro - - I found this in my script pile - see if that does anything you like:

BatchRelink.py (1.2 KB)

To use the Python script use RunPythonScript, or a macro:

_-RunPythonScript "Full path to py file inside double-quotes"

-Pascal

Hello Pascal,
Thank you very much, I will try your script :slight_smile:
Still, I think some options for setting paths would be better.

Hello Pascal,
I have tried your script, it works fine, thank you very much!
I f you don’t mind, I’ll make some changes to it and adapt it to my needs.
However, I am still missing this: :wink:
