Summary: Demonstrates how to get a the Flamingo nXt material list from the current document.

I am trying to figure out how to get a list of Flamingo nXt materials from the current document. What can I do?

The following are examples of how to extract a list of Flamingo nXt materials from the Flamingo material table in the active document.

RhinoScript

Option Explicit
 
Call Main()
 
Sub Main()
	Dim objPlugIn, materials, i, count, material
  On Error Resume Next
  Set objPlugIn = Rhino.GetPluginObject("8008880f-8d13-4b2d-92b0-727e12878a4c")
  If Err Then
		MsgBox Err.Description
		Exit Sub
	End If
  materials = objPlugIn.GetMaterials()
  If IsNull(materials) Then
    Rhino.Print("Error getting Flamingo nXt material list")
  Else
    count = UBound(materials)
    Rhino.Print("==============================================================================")
    Rhino.Print("Flamingo nXt Material List")
    Rhino.Print("------------------------------------------------------------------------------")
    If count < 0 Then
      Rhino.Print("No Flamingo materials in the current document")
    End If
    For i = 0 to count
      Set material = materials(i)
      If IsObject(material) Then
        Rhino.Print("Material " & (i + 1) & ": ID: " & material.Id & " Name: " & material.Name)
      End If
    Next
  End If
	Set material = Nothing
	Set objPlugIn = Nothing
End Sub

Python

import clr
# Load the Flamingo nXt SDK DLL
clr.AddReference("FlamingoNXtSDK")
import FlamingoNXtSDK
# Get the Flamingo nXt plug-in's SDK implimentaion, this will force the
# plug-in to load if it is not currently loaded
flSDK = FlamingoNXtSDK.SDK.FlamingoSDK
 
def ListMaterials():
    materials = flSDK.GetMaterials()
    if materials:
        print "Flamingo nXt materials"
        i = 0
        for material in materials:
            print "\t", i + 1, ": \"", material.Name, "\", ", material.Id
            i += 1;
    else:
        print "No Flamingo nXt materials in the current model"
 
if __name__=="__main__":
    ListMaterials()

    FlamingoNXtSDK.Material[] materials = sdk.GetMaterials();
    if (null == materials || materials.Length < 1)
      RhinoApp.WriteLine("No Flamingo materials found in the current model");
    else
      for (int i = 0; i < materials.Length; i++)
      {
        FlamingoNXtSDK.Material material = materials[i];
        RhinoApp.WriteLine("Material " + (i + 1) + ": ID: " + material.Id + " Name: " + material.Name);
      }
