It is a tough call to make, with inflation and the foolishness going on around the world for a handful of Dick Taters. We all know cost are on the rise which goes for everyone and I for one would NOT like to be making a decision on sales methods. Do you throw it all on direct sales or look towards the 'hook' of reduced outgoing over the year? Both have the good/bad points so, what are you going to do? Like I said, a tough call, going the wrong way can ruin a lot of hard graft and with that a financial investment. I think we are possibly seeing the last of the lifetime licenses due to the unsupportable costs of lifetime support.

Can you indicate which Mac you have (Intel or ARM) and run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp, as well as describe what does not work. Do you see the menu and toolbar, do you get error messages. I would also suggest that you open the Ruby console and leave it open when you close Sketchup. When you restart Sketchup, the console will open and show possible error messages.

Very nice

From the get go the Garage Builder was a proof of concept, and it does seem to work reasonably well. However, I'm now contemplating creating a slightly more complicated version of this tool called the House Builder. I will probably initially not include the roof or foundations for the first iteration and primarily focus on the wall layout engine (that is what is most important). Thoughts? Is there any interest for such a tool? In some way it may resemble what Chief Architect does, you create your layout in 2D, fully dimensioned and then like the Garage Builder it can with the push of a button translate that into a full 3D model on demand. The current algorithms that produce the DXF or printed drawing (PDF) will need to be further developed and augmented so that we can auto-dimension a much more complex floor plan, this should become very interesting. The goal is to be able to create, at a minimum, something like this in the House Builder tool: [image: 1788540378372-house5655_floorplan_reva3_2400-resized.jpg] I've also been giving the auto-dimensioning some serious thought and even as attractive as this may seem, there will always be cases where the user will need to manually intervene and add or subtract dimensions. So I will need to build some sort of user driven dimensioning system that will allow manual override but somehow coexist with a fully automated dimensioning system. In addition to dimensions we will also need to enable some sort of annotation system with text blocks and text with leaders (this is giving me AutoCad vibes). This in and of itself is a full on project, we may have to take this in stages.

Happy clients I'd say. Really tidy result

You are not alone brother, we stand on different soil but we stand. United in a belief that we are less and more than a single grain of sand. All great structures begin with a grain of sand. This missive means more than any one missive can or perhaps should but, it bears repeating and remembering. The future is a vast undiscovered country, we are all going to find our own small part of that country and by working together it is going to be marvellous. "The universe speaks in many languages, but only one voice. It speaks in the language of hope It speaks in the language of trust It speaks in the language of strength and the language of compassion It is the language of the heart and the language of the soul. But always it is the same voice It is the voice of our ancestors, speaking through us, And the voice of our inheritors, waiting to be born It is the small, still voice that says We are one No matter the blood No matter the skin No matter the world We are one No matter the pain No matter the darkness No matter the loss No matter the fear We are one Here, gathered together in common cause, we agree to recognize this singular truth and this singular rule: That we must be kind to one another Because each voice enriches us and ennobles us and each voice lost diminishes us. We are the voice of the Universe, the soul of creation, the fire that will light the way to a better future. We are one".

More details please - e.g. operating system - MAC or Windows. Any error messages ? Ruby Console etc...

@Mike-Amos thank you.

@juan974 said: I’m definitely interested, especially as I have a few other plugins currently in development and getting ready for release. I’d be happy to get access to the Dev Portal. Ok, can you logout of your account then visit our hoempage, sketchucation.com, login there. After login you should see a Dev Tools button in the top right of the page. If you have any questions you can email us at support@sketchucation.com

There is a thread in the SketchUp forum where they are looking for something like this extension. Here is a link to the thread: Alternative Viewer for Desktop I think your extension might be a good one for this.

Version 4.7.2 - 08.31.2026 Updated the opening move tool with additional construction dimensions. Updated the column move tool with additional construction dimensions. Fixed a minor bug in the stair module (riser materials). [image: 1788176659458-wall_su1379_800.jpg] [image: 1788176670177-wall_su1380_800.jpg]
