Overview

This is the interface to a LayOut document. A Document is the 2D drawing that the user is working with, and it serves as the “entry point” for most Ruby API interactions. The Document.open method gives you a handle to a Document, and from there you can use the document-level methods to start getting information and making changes.

Examples:

# Grab a handle to an existing LayOut document.
doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")

# Grab other handles to commonly used collections inside the model.
layers = doc.layers
pages = doc.pages
entities = doc.shared_entities

# Now that we have our handles, we can start pulling objects and making
# method calls that are useful.
first_entity = entities[0]

number_pages = pages.count

Constructor Details

#initialize ⇒ Layout::Document #initialize(template_path) ⇒ Layout::Document

The #initialize method creates a new Layout::Document. Passing a path to an existing Layout::Document will use that file as a template. The new Layout::Document won’t have a path until it is saved for the first time.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.new
doc2 = Layout::Document.new("/path/to/template.layout")

Overloads:

Raises:

  • (RuntimeError) —

    if there was an error reading the template file

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if the template file could not be found

  • LayOut 2018

Class Method Details

.open(path) ⇒ Layout::Document

The open method creates a new Layout::Document by loading an existing .layout file.

Examples:

filename = File.join(ENV['Home'], 'Desktop', 'template.layout')
doc = Layout::Document.open(filename)

Parameters:

  • path (String) —

    The path to the .layout file on disk.

Returns:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if the file does not exist

  • LayOut 2018

Instance Method Details

#==(other) ⇒ Boolean

The #== method checks to see if the two Layout::Documents are equal. This checks whether the Ruby Objects are pointing to the same internal object.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
document = doc.pages.first.document
doc == document

Parameters:

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

#add_entity(entity, layer, page) ⇒ Object #add_entity(entity, layer) ⇒ Object

The #add_entity method adds an Entity to the Layout::Document and places it on the given Layer and Page. If layer is a shared Layer then page may be ommitted. The Entity must not already belong to a Layout::Document. If the Entity is a Group, then the Group along with all of its children will be added to the Layout::Document.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
rect = Layout::Rectangle.new([[1, 1], [2, 2]])
all_layers = doc.layers
all_pages = doc.pages
doc.add_entity(rect, all_layers.first, all_pages.first)

Overloads:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if no Page is passed in and layer is non-shared

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if page does not belong to the Layout::Document

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if layer does not belong to the Layout::Document

  • (ArgumentError) —

    if entity already belongs to a Layout::Document

#precision=(precision) ⇒ Object

Note:

LayOut only allows for a finite set of precision values for each units setting, so it will set the precision to the closest valid setting for the specified units. See the “Units” section of LayOut’s “Document Setup” dialog for a reference of the available precisions for each units setting.

The #precision= method sets the precision for the Layout::Document.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
doc.precision = 0.0001

Parameters:

  • precision (Float) —

    The double specifying the precision for the Layout::Document

# Save the document in LayOut 2013 format
filename = File.join(ENV['Home'], 'Desktop', 'mydoc_v2013.layout')
