Hi!
I want to create an object as "picture.gsm", with the possibility of inserting a picture.
How can I do?
There is a guide of the GDL script for a similar item?
Thanks a lot!

The command to use is PICTURE expression, a, b, mask, you can read about it in the GDL Reference Guide. It is used in the Picture 19 object > 3D Script > Lines 179, 182 and 184.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

You can zip the .gsm file and attach it to a post so others can look at the code. Also add an explanation of what you are trying to accomplish and someone will be better equipped to help.

Thanks for adding the signature.
