Bake event watcher

Hello All,
I have a custom component that outputs a list of breps. When i go to bake them i would like an event watcher to fire that bakes something else rather than the breps that are being displayed. What is this event watcher called, and how would it work in a custom component?
Thank you.

Here's how I've overridden baking for my Grasshopper plug-ins.

My custom data inherits from GH_GeometricGoo, IGH_BakeAwareData
and then overrides public bool BakeGeometry(RhinoDoc doc, global::Rhino.DocObjects.ObjectAttributes att, out Guid obj_guid)

I'm not sure if this is possible if you mean c# or vb.net scripting components.

There might already be examples of this, if not I'll try and provide something tomorrow if no else does in the interim.

Cheers,

Jon

thanks Jon,
But just to give you the heads up, im working on a product that directly competes with yours, RhinoBIM...
I just wanted to let you know if that influences your decision to help me or not....

Thanks
Erik

Hi Erik,

Let me state publicly that doesn't influence the help or advice I'd offer here. To have a different view would go against the grain of the Rhino/Grasshopper community.

I've had a few conversations with Rick about collaboration and ensuring compatibility and whilst there is an overlap, the field is such an massive opportunity. I'm all for the best architectural and modelling tools to be developed for Rhino/Grasshopper.

Cheers,

Jon
