Hi my name is Jim and I am having a very hard time just displaying my first ruby Sketchup code on the sketchup page. I have Windows 8 Sketchup 2016 pro
The code in the file below is basically copied out of the book " Automatic Sketchup " I am so new to Ruby that I can't detect what is being left out. There must be something else needed to make it run. It is suppose to add an icosahedron to the sketch.
If I could just get over this hump, I would be so happy. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be forever indebted for your help.
mod = Sketchup.active_model # Open model
ent = mod.entities # All entities in model
sel = mod.selection # Current selection
view = mod.active_view
Ss = 1.11935599 # Short side
Gr = 1.65742 # Long side
pt0 = Geom:: Point3d.new 0,Ss,Gr
pt1 = Geom:: Point3d.new 0,-Ss,GS
pt2 = Geom:: Point3d.new Gr,0,Ss
pt3 = Geom:: Point3d.new -Gr,0,Ss
pt4 = Geom:: Point3d.new Ss,-Gr,0
pt5 = Geom:: Point3d.new -Ss,-Gr,0
pt6 = Geom:: Point3d.new 0,Ss,-Gr
pt7 = Geom:: Point3d.new 0,-Ss,-Gr
pt8 = Geom:: Point3d.new Gr,0.-Ss
pt9 = Geom:: Point3d.new -Gr,0,-Ss
pt10 = Geom:: Point3d.new Ss,Gr,0
pt11 = Geom:: Point3d.new -Ss,Gr,0
pm = Geom:: PolygonMesh.new 12, 20
