DrawScript-Python Reference

The Python integration into rule sequences and DrawScript is still relatively bare-bones. Some helper functions and variables are provided to you by default, but many behaviors you may like to have are not yet implemented as a built-in function. This is a collection of such functions that you can copy and paste into a Python rule and use throughout the rest of your rule sequence or DrawScript program.

Important

Using the ScriptEditor tool in Rhino can be a useful development environment to get access to syntax highlighting and documentation, especially because DrawScript-Python is written in Text elements.
