Batch file conversion

Hi Michael,

I tried the new command now. My workflow was, that I select a NURBS object at Rhino and press my "Moi" button

_-export "d:\temp\#moi.3dm" _enter _enter
_-run "C:\Program Files (x86)\MOI 2.0\MOIConvert.cmd"

than the CMD was started

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MoI 2.0\MoI.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\MoI 2.0\MOIConvert.js"

and the MOI meshing UI pop up.

But if I add the /showwindow to the CMD file, than I get the MoI UI only, without NURBS object and meshing UI. Do you have an idea what's wrong here?

The MOIConvert.js contain this code:

function Convert(FileName)
{
var gd = moi.geometryDatabase;

// Open the file, set 2nd param to true to suppress any save changes prompt.
gd.open( FileName, true );

// Create the output file name by breaking off the file extension and adding 'obj'.

OBJFileName = FileName.substr( 0, FileName.lastIndexOf('.') + 1 ) + 'obj';

// Save out to the output file, passing the option to suppress the UI. You
// add other options separated by semi-colons with no spaces. These
// options are available for controlling the meshing:
// NoUI=true
// Angle=12.0
// Output=ngons | quads | triangles
// MaxLength=0.0
// MaxLengthApplyTo=curved | planes | all
// MinLength=0.01
// AspectRatio=0.0
// Weld=true
// Display=shadedwithedges | shadednoedges | wireframe
// ExpandedDialog=false

gd.saveAs( OBJFileName, 'Angle=12.0;MinLength=0.01;MaxLength=1000;AspectRatio=20;Weld=true;Output=quads');

// Let's clear out and suppress any save changes prompt again.
gd.fileNew( true );
}
Convert('d:\\Temp\\#moi.3dm');
moi.exit( true ); // Pass true to suppress save changes prompt.

And other question to this topic - could it be possible, that an automatic reset of the views is done after a file is opened? The problem is, if I try to mesh an object from Rhino, than the object could be outside the default view.

An other poblem, but not so important - the display mesh show some artefacts at this opended Rhino sphere. Is it normal? The exported mesh looks good, so it no problem for the daily workflow here.

Regards,
Micha
