Rhino 6: STEP export, blocks with layer names?

[Michael_Meyer]

Hi…,

I had a customer call.

The customer saves a STEP file. Is there a way/script to give blocks layer names, that names for blocks are saved in STEP?

Thanks

Hi…,

this seams to be fixed by the customer. He types the block name now by hand in the properties name field.

Thanks

@Michael_Meyer - here’s a tiny python that will save some typing, if I understood the problem…

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs

def BlocksGetlayerNames():

    ids = rs.ObjectsByType(4096)
    if not ids:
        print "No block instances found."
        Return
        
    for id in ids:
        rs.ObjectName(id, rs.ObjectLayer(id))
            
if __name__ == "__main__":BlocksGetlayerNames()
