Thanks in advance!!

Both sides offset using IronPython

Well, the rhinoscriptsyntax functions (I assume that’s what you’re talking about here) are lower level than the Rhino functions, so to get the same kinds of options, you generally have to code them yourself.

Hi Mitch

First of all, thanks a lot for helping!!!

What do I do with the .py file? I tryed to load i in Rhino “loadscript” but it failed?

I also tried to copy the sample into “editscript” but it also failed?

i dont know if python is installed as default on windows but if so, simply enter RunPythonScript into the command line, then navigate to that script and open it. if not, you have to install python which is pretty fast and easy usually.

Please do not install python. Rhino comes with a prebuilt install of Iron Python which does not have to be installed seperately. To run a python script use _RunPythonScript.

There are alternative methods outlined here.
