Hi,

There is some information about texture mapping here, does it help you?

If this could be in a 2d, 3d or UI script, you could use request here, and set project_number as a variable, not a parameter.

What are you planning to do with the parameter in which part of the name should be stored? Why can’t you use the request where you would use the parameter?

It doesn’t work in parameter script. The request page of the manual lists these exceptions.

There is no way around. Why do you need to store it as parameter, why can’t you work with the current value (2d, 3d, ui scripts)?

Hi, REQUEST (“Name_of_plan”, “”, name) should work. What is your exact code?

The license type applies to the object you are creating. The user can see it in the tool settings window.
It is also used by https://bimcomponents.com if an object is uploaded there.
I can’t give you legal advice, but I think you should have your users accept the details of your own commercial license agreement on your site before download, and probably package your code as lcf and include a license agreement there also, or a copyright notice in the source code.

November 11, 2019 at 09:45 in reply to: Can I refresh RND() ? #18392
Péter Baksa
Keymaster
RND returns the same sequence of random numbers in each run. The sequence is different for each placed object. This makes it possible to create randomized objects (eg. trees) that look the same on different 3d views (different sections, animated fly-through rendering).

It is possible to get the time using REQUEST(“DateTime”,…).
You can convert the returned string to a number with SPLIT.
Use that in a loop to get different number of random numbers in each run.
```
n = REQUEST ("DateTime", "%S", datetimestring)
split(datetimestring, "%n", rndseed)
for i = 1 to rndseed + 1
	random = int(rnd(100))
next i
text2 0,0, str(random, 1, 0)
```

As long as the properties aren’t deleted by the user in Options / Property Manager.

The property GUIDs are project-dependent, a default value of the library part wouldn’t work in another plan.

I couldn’t get the second one to work either.

The parameter list in the GDL editor is not connected to anything in the UI script, it is only affected by the parameter script.
You can’t get the property GUIDs in the parameter script, that’s why the UI_CUSTOM_POPUP_LISTITEM and UI_CUSTOM_POPUP_INFIELD were created.

You could try to search for the file with the FileMan add-on (if it’s on disk, not in the loaded libraries).

Hi Ricardo,

rotation is always relative to the origin, so first move the origin to the anchor point, rotate, then draw the text at 0,0.

Hi Joachim,

Yes, it is possible. ROTX -90, then cut with a crescent-shaped polygon.
For example, this cuts a niche when placed properly (you’d have to handle left and right curved walls, and flipped/mirrored state too):
```
hotspot 0,0,0
rotx -90

_wallRadius		= sqr(WIDO_ORIG_DIST **2 + A **2 / 4) 

dict _arcCenter
_arcCenter.x		= 0
_arcCenter.y		= -WIDO_ORIG_DIST

! surface of wall
dict _faceCircle
_faceCircle.center	= _arcCenter
_faceCircle.radius	= _wallRadius - WIDO_SILL

! chord at window plane
dict _chord
_chord.points[1].x = -A/2
_chord.points[1].y = 0.0
_chord.points[2].x = A/2
_chord.points[2].y = 0.0

! project points of chord to _faceCircle, from _arcCenter centrally
dict _faceArc
call "BasicGeometry" parameters iFunction	= 18,		! BasicGeometry.PROJECT_POINTS_CIRCLE_2D
				points2D	= _chord,
				pointFrom	= _arcCenter,
				circleA		= _faceCircle,
			returned_parameters	_faceArc! should have exactly 1 intersection

hotspot _arcCenter.x,		_arcCenter.y,		0
hotspot _faceArc.points[1].x,	_faceArc.points[1].y,	0
hotspot _chord.points[1].x,	_chord.points[1].y,	0
hotspot _faceArc.points[2].x,	_faceArc.points[2].y,	0
hotspot _chord.points[2].x,	_chord.points[2].y,	0

put _arcCenter.x,		_arcCenter.y + _wallRadius,		1+4+8+16+64
put _arcCenter.x,		_arcCenter.y,				931
put _chord.points[1].x,		_chord.points[1].y,			3031
put _faceArc.points[1].x,	_faceArc.points[1].y,			31
put _arcCenter.x,		_arcCenter.y + _faceCircle.radius,	0

resol WALL_RESOL

wallniche	NSP / 3, 1, 2,							! n, method, status
		0, 0, 1,							! rx, ry, rz
		B,								! d
		use(NSP)							! x, y, s
mulx -1
wallniche	NSP / 3, 1, 2,							! n, method, status

Péter Baksa
Keymaster

Write a WHILE loop that compares the value to each value in the array, and terminates when found.
If you need to use it in many places with many arrays, write it as a macro.
