@dmorong The Add Location feature is not included with the EDU license (SketchUp Studio for Non-Profits) the school has. It requires a full subscription (Pro or Studio but not for Non-Profits.)

So I know this is an old topic but maybe someone can help me. I have a solid entity with 1440 cu ft of volume shown when I check on entity info.

I need to adjust this volume along a specific axis maintaining relative dimensions so slicer seemed like a perfect tool to do this. It worked great slicing up the volume along the axis in 2" slices.

I then wanted to get the volume of each slice. No can do. All the slices are grouped as a component so I exploded that component. I clicked on one and no volume information. So I thought, well maybe it's got to be a group. I exploded the individual slice and then grouped it. Still no volume info. So one more try I exploded once more, selected all connected and grouped again. Still no volume information.

Am I missing something?

Hi there,
thanks for this great plugin.
And sorry for reviving such an old topic but I figured out it won't work if you have some annotation in your model (took me some time to find this out).
The error occurs in copyEntities (around line 120 in the code) but I don't have the knowledge to modify the code to avoid such an unexpected behavior.
Maybe someone here could improve the code ?
Or at least point me on the good direction ?
Even if I know nothing about ruby coding...

Cheers and thanks for reading !

Hey, Rayscaper users!

Another release!

Rayscaper 0.9.36 Beta is available in the SketchUcation store. More fixes and improvements. As always, I recommend upgrading to the latest version.

What Changed? Improvements Auto Focus Add autofocus for DOF to the perspective camera. With autofocus, Rayscaper will automatically use the distance to the center 3D point in the rendered image as the focus distance (if possible).

Make the depth-of-field (DOF) blurriness easier to control. The range goes from 0 to 1, but if you need more blur for
your scene, you can punch in a higher value directly in the slider text box (CTRL + click). Make the depth-of-field blurriness slider logarithmic. This gives more control for low blur values. Bug Fixes Fix the normal map strength control. Fix a crash when exporting the scene to an archive.
Spotlights with a falloff of zero would not render on the CPU. This release fixes that. Help me build the community 👍

I'm on Twitter (X) now: https://twitter.com/Rayscaper3d/ - Please follow the @Rayscaper3d that will help me grow the community and spread the word about Rayscaper! 🙏

If you like Rayscaper, please share your renders (final or work-in-progress, it doesn't matter)! This is super motivating and will help me showcase its capabilities to new users.

Happy Rendering!

There is something in the way that prevents pushpull from going inward. Try selecting the face and using move instead.

@alvis

If you set z_min and z_max to the correct points it'll work.
Currently you are specifying them wrongly,
to the bb's 0 corner [z min] and 4 corner [z max]
Instead do something like this to set them to the y_max point
z_min: bounding_box.corner(3).transform(transformation.inverse)
and the corner point above it
z_max: bounding_box.corner(7).transform(transformation.inverse)

All of the 3 seats are allocated, presumably using your old computer[s] details.
You need to free up the seats so that you can reactivate them for your new computer[s].
If you have the latest versions of the extension and the SketchUcation toolset [for the licensing] installed, and SketchUp restarted to sync, you should be able to do this using the submenu items for the extension under the Tools menu.
You can also manage each of your licenses by logging in to SketchUcation.com and using the menu item PluginStore > My Licenses... page...

Guys, this tool is exceptional, yet (instead of complaining about it), you should give yourself the chance to try at least for 3 weeks a Space Mouse (or 3D Mouse) from 3D Connexion.
No opinion from YouTube (or from yourself) doesn't weigh as much as 3 weeks of day-to-day use of this device - 3 weeks is the minimum your brain needs to understand and use this device, and after that, you will ask yourself how could you ever work without it, and you will never work without it (i have 3 of them).
This device is priceless.!

@alvis Thanks Mike, Bryan and Alvis.

Here's some finals with people.

@HornOxx 😀

@Dan-Rathbun There si also another one (maybe with more pleasant UI), component_edit_notify...

@TIG Maybe somebody can do something about it, because right now we have no option to convert construction lines to edges (the reverse it is possible, at least with Curvizard).
I know only one option (DBur Guide Tools) but it can do only one line at a time....

@Didier-Bur Your text code is wrong (different than the one from your picture) - the one from your picture is correct.!
Thank you anyway - it worked, after an error from SU 2024, I figured it out.!

@FlorinAp
Don't manipulate the selection directly.
Instead make it an array first...
This will guard against crashes somewhat...

selection_to_change = selection.to_a

a second video of that project is online:

@nlipovac said in Piano with Rayscaper:

@ntxdave This is an online generator, I made a few for when I do UV mapping.
https://uvchecker.vinzi.xyz/

You made that?

@Dave-R I've tried to unsoften the edges to 0 degrees but the problem is still there.

Screen Shot 2024-10-24 at 8.14.01 am.png

The drawing will be sent to a machinist, If I can figure out a way to unsoften the edges, then I will add measurements and send it to him.

@mcann if those are spot heights you will need to get them into sketchup as construction points.

Then use a cpoint to mesh extension to generate a surface.

But I'm not fully understanding your message.

In SU 2024, in a newly created and empty file, the first line (even formed from multiple edges) is not visible, only the second is visible, or if the file is not empty.
I tested in SU 2023 and 2022, and this bug is only in 2024.

Edit: It is a problem in my custom template that occurs only in SU 2024...!
The problem doesn't exist with the same template in SU 2022 or 2023... I don't understand yet...
