Flowstone Ruby guides

Post by fixstuff555 »

Question:

Anyone working on a PDF tutorial or similar document for Flowstone's new ruby functionality? I realize, that yes, more info on Ruby can be gleaned from the Ruby site, but, I would prefer a document that is tailored to how Ruby works inside of Flowstone, i.e getting Gems to work, accessing external Dlls, etc. I think example code such as the Flowbotics Studio is a great and wonderful thing, and I will be able to learn a lot from that. However, it can be somewhat time consuming to dig through that to glean implemetation ideas from the embedded ruby code pieces. Anyone interested in such a document? I wouldn't be averse to starting it or helping to create it, so I welcome and suggestions or ideas...

I know there is some info pertaining to Ruby inside the User guide

I agree more documentation for Ruby is needed, as an example I could not find the following Ruby method mentioned in the User Guide: v.drawBitmapSection
This method is in the vintage LED Ruby code for the draw knob module.
