OpenScad Polygon Generator

thingiverse

Well this is an proof of concept so to speak. Not really a thing ;-). What i do here is generate scad files. I was playing with that thought for a while now. Because its a bit strange. I use one programming language (action-script 3.0 and flex in my case) to generate the other. In this case for the polygon method within openscad witch is powerfull but hard to read. So a made the visual helper for generation polygon call with a bit of extrusion Weird but it works what do you think mad or mad science ;) The small air app does not have any undo functionality and you can only draw on a grid, it was just to test something maybe i will add stuff to it ? should i ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oSW9zlKsZ8 Update 14 Jun 2011: Thanks for the great response but a bit of warning is in place the fxp source code is, well.. how do is say it.... very sloppy ;-) , just so you know build it 2 or 3 hours or so ( hack hack ) Update 13 Aug 2011: Still working on it but not ready for its first release :-( Some hints Layers (one layer is one openscad module) each layer its own color Adding and Deleting of Points and of course Moving points Splitting of segments Curves (Maybe) Save files (some json or xml) so you can save your work Web based and AIR app Etc Etc ;-) Update 2 Aug 2012 : New version athttp://www.thingiverse.com/thing:13348 Orhttp://www.protorabbit.nl/?p=32 Instructions Install the air program (you need the air runtime from adobe) Look at vid on youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oSW9zlKsZ8 Run the app draw some polygons Save it Open it in openscad Check Automatic Reload reload and Compile in open scad Make some more polygon and save See openscad update (cool) the scad files are some examples of what it generated the stl are the results from the scad files the fxp (is a zip) and can be imported into flash builder
