 +====== Scripts, Workspace, and Macros======
  
 +Created by G.C. Webster (Guilherme Cozer Webster) for Rhino. 
 +
 +> **Info:** //Olá. Welcome to my humble wiki page. I'm not a VB Expert, but I do my best. If you'd like to report a bug (or maybe a spelling / grammar mistake), send a suggestion or just contact me, feel free to send an [[gcwebster36@gmail.com|e-mail.]]//
 +
 +===== VB.NET =====
 +
 +This [[http://wiki.mcneel.com/_media/legacy/en/gcwebster-rhinoscripts.zip|.zip file]] (last revision: **03/Feb/06**) contains all the scripts described below, saved in **.rvb** format. It is simpler than uploading every single script...
 +
 +These .rvb files are ready to be copied and pasted to a button. Take a look at the [[developer:macroscriptsetup|MacroScriptSetup]] tutorial page to know what I'm talking about.
 +
 +**AbsTol** - Quickly change the absolute tolerance of a document.
 +
 +**AnglePivot** - Runs the Angle command with a pivot point.
 +
 +**AnnotateCrvLengths**
 +
 +**AnnotateCrvRadius**
 +
 +**BothColors** - Quickly changes both wireframe and render/material colors of any objects.
 +
 +**ClearAllMeshes** - Runs the ClearAllMeshes command with a secure confirmation box.
 +
 +**ClearUndo** - Runs the ClearUndo command with a secure confirmation box.
 +
 +**ClosedPlanarCrvIndAreaCentroids** - Creates individual area centroids for each closed planar curve selected.
 +
 +**CopyToPt** - Copies several objects to selected points at the same time. (Original idea by [[people:davidrutten|Gelfling aka David Rutten]])
 +
 +**CSec2** - Automatically creates open curves from the intersection between given cross-section and profile curves.
 +
 +**DigDisconnect** - Runs the DigDisconnect command with a secure confirmation box.
 +
 +**EncloseCrvs** - Encloses open planar curves inside a closed planar curve boundary.
 +
 +**ExtendCrvs** - One of the most useful scripts I've ever written: extend several curves at the same time.
 +
 +**IndAreaCentroids** - Creates individual area centroids for each srf or polysrf selected.
 +
 +**IndBoundingBoxes** - Creates individual bounding boxes for each object selected.
 +
 +**IndProjBB** - Creates projected to Cplane bounding boxes for each object selected.
 +
 +**InvBottom** - Sets an Invert Bottom view in any Rhino document.
 +
 +**InvTop** - Sets an Invert Top view in any Rhino document.
 +
 +**InvDel** - Simply inverts selection and deletes remaining objects with a secure confirmation box.
 +
 +**OffsetCrvs** - Offsets more than one curve at the same time, including a  BothSides  option.
 +
 +**OriBB** - Creates an oriented Bounding Box accordingly to a 3pt Cplane. (Thanks for the help, Pascal!)
 +
 +**Orient2pt_pivot** - The orient command with a pivot point (same first point on both reference and target).
 +
 +**ProjBB** - Also extremely useful: creates a Projected To Cplane Bounding Box.
 +
 +**QuadMirror** - Mirror an object twice, first horizontally and then vertically, using the origin, resulting in four equal objects. (Hmmm...is this clear enough?)
 +
 +**RenderColor** - Quickly changes the render/material color of objects.
 +
 +**ResetBothColors** - Re-assigns both wireframe and render/material color of objects as By Layer.
 +
 +**ResetColor** - Re-assigns the wireframe color of objects as By Layer.
 +
 +**ResetRenderColor** - Re-assigns render/material color of objects as By Layer.
 +
 +**SelCrvInPlane** - Selects only the planar curves in a model that coincides with the active CPlane.
 +
 +**SelPlanar**
 +
 +**SelPlanarPolysrf**
 +
 +**SelPlanarSrf**
 +
 +**ShowE** - All objects of the model on the screen - basically unlocks and shows everything.
 +
 +**Txt2Crv** - Transforms text objects in curves.
 +
 +**UndoViewChangeInAllViewports**
 +
 +**WireColor** - Quickly changes the wireframe color of objects.
 +
 +===== Workspace=====
 +
 +[[http://wiki.mcneel.com/_media/legacy/en/gcwebsterRH3_SR4.zip|Here]] it's possible to download my personal workspace file, with custom buttons and organization. It contains the macros below, all scripts above and other useful codes from some VB masters such as [[http://www.avgauge.com|Dan Bayn]] and [[http://www.rayflectar-graphics.com/Rhino/RhinoScripts-Gallery.htm|Thomas Anagnostou.]]
 +
 +===== Macros=====
 +
 +[[rhino:basicmacros|Macros]] are usually quite easy and simple. Here are some of mine:
 +
 +**New file using template** - Just replace YOURTEMPLATE with the real name of the template wanted.
 +
 +
 +**_New YOURTEMPLATE**
 +
 +**SelColor+Hide & SelColor+InvHide**
 +
 +**_SelColor** 
 +_pause
 +_Hide
 +
 +**_SelColor**  
 +_pause
 +_Invert
 +_Hide
 +
 +
 +**Set the Default layer on** - You obviously must have a layer named default.
 +
 +**-_OneLayerOn Default**
 +
 +
 +**Open the Units Tab in Document Properties page**
 +'_NoEcho
 +'//DocumentPropertiesPage //Units
 +
 +
 +**Set the Gradient View ON in all viewports & Set the Gradient View OFF in all viewports**
 +
 +**_NoEcho**
 +-GradientView
 +View
 +Enter
 +
 +**_NoEcho**
 +-GradientView
 +View
 +State
 +Enter
 +
 +**Show Wireframes on render & Don't show wireframes on render** - It works only with TreeFrog as the current renderer .
 +
 +**_NoEcho**
 +-_DocumentProperties
 +_TreeFrog
 +_Wireframe=yes
 +//Enter //Enter
 +
 +_SetRedrawOn
 +_Echo
 +
 +**_NoEcho**
 +-_DocumentProperties
 +_TreeFrog
 +_Wireframe=no
 +//Enter //Enter
 +
 +_SetRedrawOn
 +_Echo
 +
 +
 +
 +**Blend curve: tangent - position continuity** - Creates a blend curve using G1 and G0 continuities in the first and last input, respectively. You can use this macro as a model to create other continuity combinations.
 +
 +**_Blend**
 +continuity=tangency
 +_pause
 +continuity=position
 +
 +
 +
 +**Line: Perpendicular from Curve, Both Sides from First Point**
 +
 +**Line Perpendicular**
 +_BothSides
 +_pause
 +_FromFirstPoint
 +
 +
 +
 +**Mark Both Curve Start and End**
 +
 +**_NoEcho**
 +_CrvStart
 +_CrvEnd
 +
 +
