Two Python scripting questions
« on: November 14, 2017, 06:44:19 AM »
Hi,

I encountered some minor problems which I can't yet find a solution on the forum.

1. After running my script from tool > run script. My project file somehow will be locked by Python or something. After I close it, it will prompt me that the file is read only next time I open it. Although click "yes" to continue editing will solve the problem, it is still annoying.
2. From the Python API manual, I can't find a way to reorder my chunks. However, it can be achieved by dragging the chunk with mouse. Is there any way I can achieve the same task with Python?

If you're interested in the code I use, here's the link:
https://github.com/dobedobedo/PhotoScan-Workflow

The PhotoScan version I used is 1.3.4

Looking forward to hearing some comment from you!

Hi Alexey,

I use Windows 10 64-bit.
The script was written on Linux though, so the end of line character is different. However, I don't think it's a problem for Python on Windows.

Hello dobedobedo,

Does the problem occur even if you use very basic script, like adding chunk to the document and saving?

Yes it is.
I tried using simple command in the Python console directly such as doc=PhotoScan.app.document. It also locks my project file after closing it.
