Using ETO forms to prompt Excel file path and then run the GH file

[clement]

Hi @_AS,

@_AS

1)Can a Button in ETO form be used to ask a user to specify an excel file path and then feed it as an input of a GH scrip

some years ago i’ve posted this example which might be helpful for your task. It demonstrates how to open GH, load a definition and assign Data to component parameters using the GH PlugIn object.

2)The Dock Position for the ETO form should be the default properties panel.

Unfortunately there is currently no way to create dockable panels with Python.

3)I want to package this Python file(ETO Form) as a Rhino Package manager. I could not find any resources for the same either

Search for Yak. When you use the RhinoScript PlugIn Compiler, it creates a yak file which you can either upload to McNeels servers or drag and drop it onto an open Rhino instance to install the compiled PlugIn.
