I am writing a keynotes system based on text files loaded into the project library. I am curious if there is a way of centrally setting a value (or more specifically, an array), using the Library Master object, which could then be used by all my keyn...

I am working on a set of keynote labels / legends in GDL, which rely mainly on the text I/O add-on to bring in tables of keynotes written in excel. It's working well enough so far, but I haven't got a good sense of how costly the text I/O actually is...

Since GDL is essentially a dialect of BASIC, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a stand-alone interpreter with a similar set of features and behavior. I write code using VSCode, and testing some of the more complex logical constructs or data s...

I noticed that the 'Picture 24' library object has a string parameter input which also provides a nice list of all the images loaded into the user's library. According to this forum post, the parameter gs_picture_name has its values populated through...

It looks like making any changes to sub-type also changes the GUID, which immediately breaks all the objects that's I've based on this sub-type. Now I have to go through each of them and re-assign their sub-type. Is there any way to lock in a GUID so...

Thanks - I think you're right that allowing the user to select a different source of keynotes per MVO is actually very useful so I will go with the Library Global. The user picks the file, and a set of hidden array type parameters get filled up with ...

Just wanted to thank you for the rotation add-on - I wrote something like this for myself when I was still in AutoCAD and it saved me thousands of clicks. From what I can see, the JSON / Python api is mainly capable of reading various properties from...

I know this is an old question, but meshes are a weak point in Archicad's toolset - they do not participate in material priority intersections, nor to edges in plan clean up like with slabs. You're stuck with solid element operations, which don't wor...

I see, you're using the Datetime add-on - unfortunately it only reports to the nearest second, so we have to repeat an operation many times to get a sense of performance. I will make a few tests and post the results here!

Thanks everyone! I will go with a macro to set up the cutting plane as Peter and Joachim suggest. I didn't realize that the stack is shared between the caller and the macro, that could be useful in all kinds of ways.@DGSketcher I really like axos, bu...

BASIC interpreter similar to GDL

Wish: more Application Request "LIBRARY_MANAGER" commands

Updating a sub-type breaks objects based on it?
