Version 4.2.4 - 01.19.2026 Added bypass (2 panel - solid) doors to the door module. [image: 1768887049621-bypass_door.gif] [image: 1768887049641-wall_su1047_800.jpg] This door type added per customer request. At some point I should probably add in the "barn door" type, these seem to be quite popular these days. [image: 1768887059457-wall_su1049_800.jpg]

@Rich-O-Brien said in Scene animation with Animator: @ntxdave said in Scene animation with Animator: this will probably not happen for a couple of days But what you learn is permanent. That is why I advocate for people to stay the course and troubleshoot themselves. Plus you get a dopamine hit every time you figure stuff out. Getting spoon fed answers has the opposite effect. Thanks @rich-o-brien Don’t give up on me I am going to figure this stuff out. I think from what I learned today (by first looking at an old video and file that I did a few years ago) and the applying some of the same things (primarily the visibility feature). When I get back to this, I want to try the following: Save what I have done so far as a clip Create a second scene that has some similar features as the existing one (visibility and animation) Possibily, but maybe not right away, camera positioning. Again, thanks for the response and if I have offended @fredo6 in any way i apologize. I am going to figure this stuff out and learn how to take full advantage of the features/capabilities of Animator. IMO it is a great tool that has a lot of power that I hope I can use for some things I would like to and, hopefully, help others see.

If it is licensed you must already have the SketchUcation toolset installed to cover the licensing. Use the SketchUcation toolset's ExtensionStore dialog to first check that you have the latest toolset version installed - if not then install it and restart Sketchup. After that use the ExtensionStore dialog to Auto-Install the latest LibFredo6 extension, and restart SketchUp After that use the ExtensionStore dialog to Auto-Install the latest version of Toposhaper, and then restart SketchUp. Any improvement ?

Thank you, all, for picking up this dialogue. First off, I should give my thanks and gratitude to Fredo6 for making this plug-in happen. Thank you! For my workflow, I avoid using anything but the Vector setting for scenes in Layout, and I don't use a style that shows the textures unless it's abosolutely needed . Raster doesn't handle lines well and is 'fuzzy'. The Rastor materials included look great in Sketchup, but don't translate over to Layout. When I tried a hybrid compromise, the Rastor section fills become blurry and not very useful. I'd be more than happy to give examples of hatch patterns I'd love to see available for the types of materials I use creating drawings for cabinetry (in addition to the Vector patterns currently available at least four different types of sheet goods, three types of solid wood, plaster/gypsum and stone countertops would all be fantastic). If it's something that's doable with relative ease for you, Fredo, how can I help?

Thank you ;: )

@Mike-Amos said in Thinking of our Majid today: Perhaps the Russian 'window' thing could be exported to D.C.? Nah, I don't want anyone to fall out of a window. Maybe just fall into a jail cell or two

It's now available as an RBZ download from our PluginStore or through the SketchUcation > ExtensionStore dialog within SketchUp. Well done.

Thanks mate, a good antidote to the news.

Please install Sketchucation Tools: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/696-sketchucationtools It controls licensing and is required.

Thanks for your feedback Glenn-at-home Hmm, strange. I used also an inches default Master for testing. For me, entering inches (for example) works without any problems in the SU versions mentioned. Is there perhaps something wrong with my inch measurement entry and doesn´t correspond to practice? For example: for 15 feet inward,would you write " -15 " or " -15' "? ( by the way, this is a pretty complicated system for me to write) [image: 1768802840429-5bfc0a3a-ef87-4495-a97f-cc77542dee4f-image.png]

I gave the code of this plugin to ai, and asked him to write a manual, here it is.Sculpt Tools Manual.pdf

Thanks! Gave it a try but no go, ah well....much appreciated for the help however....

@Gus-R said in Delete Used Components: Dave, by used I mean existing components. I do use purge unused by I wanted to get rid of a bunch of cabinet pulls. OK. So you could have used the process I described, right clicking on the component thumbnail and selecting Delete. Would be faster than digging though Outliner, especially if the components are nested in groups or larger components.

Also... have you installed the latest LibFredo6 and restarted SketchUp ?
