here is a mini tutorial on using Node.Create(str, str)
after writing the first bracket after Nose.Create( you need a ' or " to contain the first string. as you type the ' a droplist will appear. choose the type node you want to create from the list. end with a '
enter the destination for the node in the second string '/Project/Space 3D'
then the last )
my sample in the image shows an easy way of changing nodes from the droplist..simply delete the first ' [and name] then retype the '
the last image shows the sample script and a few nodes that were created
from the guide
Create (file:///E:/trueSpace7/tS/PDFMan/ScriptObjects/structIRiNodeItem.html#a2) ( BSTR idName,[in] VARIANT vOwner,[out, retval] VARIANT *pVal)
Creates object instance of given type in particular encapsulator
Parameters: [I]idName – identifier of tS object prototype (see Nodes reference doc for full list of available objects) vOwner – full name of owner (encapsulator) for newly created object bName – returns full name of newly created object Example: create new encapsulator object
Encaps = Node.Create('Kernel Package/Object', '/Project/Space 3D') |

Thanks Stan. I played with this today. I was able to generate Shape objects.
It really helps to see examples like this; the DG is useful of course but being able to pair up an example with the document makes interpretation much easier.

Hi stan. Question.
If I look in the Nodes reference (RsNodeDoc.xml) and look for a node that is in your example, say, the AspectToolbar, I cannot find it. Or, Windows Manager Package. Or, Space 3d Package. Not even Shape.
Basically, I am trying to translate the information in these documents to the example you have, by searching for the text in your example. But, I cannot seem to do so. Could you (or anyone else so inclined) help clarify the situation please?
Thanks!

frootee, the droplist is the complete list maybe not all have neen listed on the RsNodeDoc.xml..refering to the new RsNodeDoc.xml in your ts7.51 folder is the most current..
I came across how it worked by shear luck one day trying to get the example to work, which didn't ..;) |
