The Metals List By Selection command in RhinoArtisan works the same way as the Metals List command but only calculates the weight of the selected objects instead of all elements in the viewport. The generated list can be included in a Report or added as text in the viewport.
When the command is activated, RhinoArtisan prompts the user to select the objects whose weights need to be calculated. After making a selection, a window appears displaying a list of available metals, allowing the user to choose the ones in which the weight should be calculated. Once the metals are selected, the user specifies a point in the viewport or an open Report where the calculated weights will be placed.
Select the objects in the viewport whose weight needs to be calculated.
Choose the desired metals from the list that appears.
Specify a point in the viewport or an open Report to insert the calculated information.
Advantages
Calculates the weight of only the selected elements, rather than everything in the viewport.
Allows users to choose from a variety of metals for precise weight estimations.
Inserts the calculated information as text in the viewport or within a report.
Speeds up the workflow by focusing on specific elements rather than the entire model.
This command is particularly useful for analyzing individual design components, providing accurate weight information for selected elements, and integrating data efficiently into project documentation.
