[OamadeusO]

If someone is able to write it, a pluggin alowing you to copy and past lines from Illustrator to Rhino would be good...

I've always wanted to do some scriting in Rhino to speed up work. I mainly work on architectural stuff, so I have a few ideas that would make repeating tasks easier.

I'm not much of a programer guy , but I know the basics. I do scripting for Flash (Action script).

- Do you guys know any good Rhino scripting tutorials I could find on the net ?

- How hard is it to get into Rhino scripting ? For example in the case of a little script that would make windows from a selected profile curves and outer measurements, then make a bounding box that could be used to cut the hole in the wall.

Thank you all for your interests in this thread. I am studying how to develop a plug-in for Rhino and I am searching for Tutorials and articles on the net by myself. What I suggest is to read the Rhino documents on scripting and available commands in Rhino. Then conceptualize what the plug-in (or script) must do for you. For example as a car designer it might be useful to have a plug-in to create 4 wheels and locate on a layout just by putting some data into it.

Consider what commands you have to give to Rhino and how should be the string for those commands. Then perform it manually to finish the job by yourselves and copy all commands from Command History (F2) and paste to a text editor. The rest would be learning how to compile it for Rhino. I am working on this part now, it seams it would not be much difficult.

You can refer to my earlier post in this thread for some sources for learning how to script for Rhino. Download some scripts and open them and study their contents which would be helpful.

At the end I have to learn how to make and install a plug-in to do all those commands by clicking a button and entering data as radiuses and distances. Hope that above could be inspiring.

Maybe we can put it as a tutorial.
