Would it be awesome for LaserWeb to open Sketchup files directly just like other formats???
Yes it will!!! . Do you have that magic?
Sounds like it’s time for some sample sketchup files to look into how the geometry is stored.
+Peter van der Walt If they’re just XML, should be about as easy (or maybe easier) to parse as SVGs are?
+Peter van der Walt In a week or so (once I’m finished current project) I’ll have a bit of a chat with you about it to see what kind of output is necessary to parse into whatever draws it into LW & I’ll have a crack at it.
Quick google search returned this https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/648/create-threejs-from-sketchup.html , but it requires a web server, not just a browser.
As an Open Source maniac, I’d love to see FreeCAD format support as well as any kind of integration between the two softwares… Pushing it further, a LW/CNCW FreeCAD workspace, running LW into FreeCAD, interacting or replacing the Path workspace…
