    FYI, I did get this custom toolbar plugin to work with 2022. Right now I'm trying to figure out why it's now not working with 2026.

    AI-Driven 2D Layout Automation: Is Anyone Successfully Generating Shop Drawings from 3D Models Yet? Hi everyone, I’ve been watching a lot of recent videos demonstrating AI models (like GPT-6 Astra, and Claude) driving 3D modeling directly in SketchUp via MCP connections. I’m far from an AI expert, but as someone who produces daily drawings for a cabinet maker, I’m curious about how this will impact our workflow. While I’m not particularly eager to jump on the automated 3D modeling train just yet, what I haven't seen naturally demonstrated is the automation from a completed 3D model to a finished, client-ready 2D layout. Since I have to submit all my drawings to designers and architects for review, corrections, and signatures, producing these layouts is the one part of my process I’d love to automate. Has anyone here attempted—or successfully built—a workflow where AI handles the entire layout generation process from a 3D model? I'd love to hear your thoughts or see what tools you're experimenting with. Thanks, Thomas

    @Scit @fredo6 I see the same issue - all MP4 videos seem to be encoded as 25FPS regardless of what is set in the Animator clip creation UI. I am using a Mac Studio with macOS 26.6.2. I am not sure what version of ffmpeg I have; I think it was "inherited" from my previous Mac when I installed this Mac Studio and migrated the contents from my prior Mac. Edited to add: I just updated ffmpeg to a build from a few days ago (downloaded from https://ffmpeg.martin-riedl.de/) and there is no difference. MP4 clips are still encoded as 25FPS even when, for example, 30FPS is selected in the Animator GUI. This is causing some grief in my video editor (iMovie), complicating how I time some voice-over with the video content, and also with how I have the editor dissolve from one clip to another when frame-by-frame synchronization is important.
