Does anyone knows how to make live connection between GH fro Mac and Excel 360 for Mac.  
I tried Windows plugins but they don’t work on a Mac

Need to extract areas from building floor plates.

Thanks,

I think the McNeel folks should comment. I believe that the complete visual basic only exists in Windows and hence there’s no connecting that way.

Sorry for the delayed reply. I do not know what third-party APIs Excel 365 for Mac supports. A quick search turns up little. Perhaps someone else here can help me find out.

Many of the previous Excel interoperability components that I’m familiar used Windows COM as a means of communication.

Take a look at Flux.io. Perhaps that is a solution for you with Excel.
