Hi Brian, you can just use the OS filesystem for this, like make a folder "profiles" and put your .3dm files in there. Use the Import or ImportPart commands to open them.
In the next v5 beta there will be thumbnail images saved to .3dm files and also there will be shell plug-ins for the Windows and Mac filesystem to make them display.
Hi Phiro,
I think that you are correct, regarding "object library".
I am now wondering how the upcoming new Moi thumbnails will relate to Windows 10 or 11 file view mode? (Detail, small icon, large icon, etc.) I need to study more.
Contemplating the best way to implement it, for a script to pick a pe-existing profile.
- Existence of, and link to directory containing profiles?
- layout governed by Windows file manager settings?
- Post processing of profile, BB center, scaling, miscellaneous desired preset parameters, some modifiable...?
- What about Mac setup?
