Get List of Viewports

I’m writing a little script to find clipping planes hiding in inactive layers, but having trouble getting a proper viewport object to use as the argument for the clipping plane’s IsActiveInViewport method.

I’ve tried:

1. Using the viewname:

        for vp in rs.ViewNames():
            if cpo.IsActiveInViewport(vp) and not rs.IsLayerOn(cp_layer):

But the viewname is a string and not a RhinoViewport

2. Coercing from the viewport name returned by rs.ViewNames:

        for vp_id in rs.ViewNames():
            vpo=rs.coercerhinoobject(vp_id,True,True)

but the viewnames aren’t guids

3. Getting views from scriptcontext:
   sc.doc.Views.GetEnumerator() #wrong type, RhinoView instead of Viewport

Full script follows:

import Rhino
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
import scriptcontext as sc

cps = rs.ObjectsByType(536870912)

if len(cps)>0:
    print("Found clipping planes")
    for cp_id in cps:
        cp_layer=rs.ObjectLayer(cp_id)
        cpo=rs.coercerhinoobject(cp_id,True,True)
        for vp in rs.ViewNames():
            if cpo.IsActiveInViewport(vp) and not rs.IsLayerOn(cp_layer):
                print("An active clipping plane is hiding on ",cp_layer)
else:
    print("Found no clipping planes")
