Got it, thanks Michael.

Yes, with only limited testing of the SnapFunc above, the corner points don't end up being "sensitive" enough: the clicks don't reliably trigger the intended corner.

No worries, I'll go back to using pointpicker.restrictToObject( rect).

Hi Larry,

re:
> Oddly after the script exits, an undo will expose the rotated edge in its original position.

I'm not reproducing that over here.

When I run 2dopening and pick some points I get a result like this:


And when I then do an undo, I get this:

Hi Michael,

Yes, that's the intended behavior. Please click on the Door checkbox to expose the unexpected undo behavior.

BTW, the purpose of the script is to add simple 2D window and door symbols to an architectural floorplan, so the typical use would be on a model like the attached.

With continued development of this script the unexpected undo behavior went away, though I'm still not clear on its cause nor just what cleared it up. A minor mystery, most likely due to a lack of understanding on my part.

Hi Larry,

re:

I think there's a bug somewhere in the automatic undo generation system when some intermediate objects are both created and deleted within the same command.

If you run into it again you might try using factory.calculate() instead of factory.commit(), like:

var object_list_result = factory.calculate();

The difference is that factory.calculate() creates "loose objects", meaning the objects have not been added into the geometry database automatically. If you're then using that geometry for internal construction and it's not supposed to be shown by itself to the user you don't need to have it added into the geometry database.

Thanks Michael, will keep that in mind.
