Overview

The AutoTextDefinitions class is a container class for all AutoTextDefinitions in a Document.

Examples:

# Grab a handle to an existing LayOut document's auto text definitions.
doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions

# From here, we can add auto text definitions to or remove them from the
# document.
auto_texts.add("PageNum", Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_PAGE_NUM)
auto_texts.remove("PageNum")

Version:

• LayOut 2018

Instance Method Summary

• #[](index) ⇒ Object

  The #[] method returns a value from the array of AutoTextDefinitions.

• #add(name, type) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition

  The #add method adds an AutoTextDefinition to the Document.

• #each {|auto_text| ... } ⇒ Object

  The #each method iterates through all of the AutoTextDefinitions.

• #index(auto_text) ⇒ Object

  The #index method returns the index of the AutoTextDefinition, or nil if it doesn’t exist in the Document.

• #length ⇒ Integer (also: #size)

  The #length method returns the number of AutoTextDefinitions.

• #remove(*args) ⇒ Object

  The #remove method removes an AutoTextDefinition from the Document.

Instance Method Details

#[](index) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition #[](name) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition

The #[] method returns a value from the array of Layout::AutoTextDefinitions.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions
auto_text = auto_texts[2]

Overloads:

• #[](index) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition

  Parameters:

  • index (Integer) —

    The index of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition to return

  Returns:

  • (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)
• #[](name) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition

  Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition to return

  Returns:

  • (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)

Raises:

• (IndexError) —

  if index is out of range

Version:

• LayOut 2018

# File 'lib/sketchup-api-stubs/stubs/Layout/AutoTextDefinitions.rb', line 49

def [](index)
end

#add(name, type) ⇒ Layout::AutoTextDefinition

The #add method adds an Layout::AutoTextDefinition to the Document.

The type can be one of the following values:

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_FILE

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_PAGE_NAME

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_PAGE_NUMBER

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_CUSTOM_TEXT

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_CURRENT

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_CREATED

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_MODIFIED

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_PUBLISHED

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
doc.auto_text_definitions.add("current date",
   Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_CURRENT);

Parameters:

• name (String)
• type (Integer)

Returns:

• (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)

Raises:

• (ArgumentError) —

  if type is not a valid auto text type, or is mandatory.

Version:

• LayOut 2018

# File 'lib/sketchup-api-stubs/stubs/Layout/AutoTextDefinitions.rb', line 79

def add(name, type)
end

#each {|auto_text| ... } ⇒ Object

Note:

Don’t remove content from this collection while iterating over it with #each. This would change the size of the collection and cause elements to be skipped as the indices change. Instead copy the current collection to an array using to_a and then use each on the array, when removing content.

The #each method iterates through all of the Layout::AutoTextDefinitions.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions
auto_texts.each { |auto_text|
  puts auto_text.name
}

Yield Parameters:

• auto_text (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)

# File 'lib/sketchup-api-stubs/stubs/Layout/AutoTextDefinitions.rb', line 99

def each
end

#index(auto_text) ⇒ Integer^? #index(name) ⇒ Integer^?

The #index method returns the index of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition, or nil if it doesn’t exist in the Document.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions
index = auto_texts.index(definitions.first) # Returns 0

Overloads:

• #index(auto_text) ⇒ Integer^?

  Parameters:

  • auto_text (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)

  Returns:

  • (Integer, nil)
• #index(name) ⇒ Integer^?

  Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition to get the index of

  Returns:

  • (Integer, nil)

Version:

# File 'lib/sketchup-api-stubs/stubs/Layout/AutoTextDefinitions.rb', line 122

def index(auto_text)
end

#length ⇒ Integer Also known as: size

The #length method returns the number of Layout::AutoTextDefinitions.

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions
num_auto_texts = auto_texts.length

Returns:

• (Integer)

Version:

• LayOut 2018

# File 'lib/sketchup-api-stubs/stubs/Layout/AutoTextDefinitions.rb', line 135

def length
end

#remove(definition, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object #remove(name, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object #remove(index, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object

The #remove method removes an Layout::AutoTextDefinition from the Document.

The Layout::AutoTextDefinition must be one of the following types:

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_FILE

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_PAGE_NAME

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_PAGE_NUMBER

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_CUSTOM_TEXT

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_CURRENT

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_CREATED

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_MODIFIED

Layout::AutoTextDefinition::TYPE_DATE_PUBLISHED

Examples:

doc = Layout::Document.open("C:/path/to/document.layout")
auto_texts = doc.auto_text_definitions
auto_texts.remove(auto_texts[10], true)

Overloads:

• #remove(definition, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object

  Parameters:

  • definition (Layout::AutoTextDefinition)
  • convert_tags_to_text (Boolean) (defaults to: true)
• #remove(name, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object

  Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The name of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition to remove

  • convert_tags_to_text (Boolean) (defaults to: true)
• #remove(index, convert_tags_to_text = true) ⇒ Object

  Parameters:

  • index (Integer) —

    The index of the Layout::AutoTextDefinition to remove

  • convert_tags_to_text (Boolean) (defaults to: true)

Raises:

• (ArgumentError) —

  if the definition that is being removed is mandatory
