@panixia Hi Marcello, with € 11 you can easily do it even with blender, even with large ones

@BABAB

You need Sketchucation Tools https://sketchucation.com/plugin/696-sketchucationtools

You need Libfredo https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6

If you run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu in SketchUp I can take a look.

@rv1974 said in [Plugin] Axyz - v1.1a - 8 June 24:

@Rich-O-Brien Yes and no. without copying Select Instances+Axyz works fine.
Maybe you with(?) Fredo could develop a new rock solid version of "select all instances"?
BTW many people request "select all instances" that would copy all instances regardless the context to the memory buffer. the 20 y.o. one that I use can't do that.

Sorry for the late answer, but.. did you try Selection Toys?
Selecti a single instance, right click and in the context menu go to "instances" and then you can choose if you want select "all" (regardless the context) or "active" (all instances in the current context).

@August said in Turtle Graphics for Sketchup:

Turtle Graphics

You would need to piggy back on the API to have implicit commands similar to Turtle-type behaviour.

In SketchUp you can use [#,#,#] to infer the [x,y,z] location in 3D space to place an object or point. But in all instances it requires user input to pick the tool and/or the first point.

I know of nothing that allow you to draw in the manner you need.

You could try @alexschreyer OpenAI extension: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2643-as_openaiexplorer

Or @samuel_t Parametric Modelling extension: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2387-parametric_modeling

Both have that type of capability of command based drawing. I like the latter for parametric block out.

You could use the Ruby Console to draw in the same way as you could use a chainsaw to trim your fingernails.

Try asking Claude.ai for ideas to get you a primitive example you could build on.

You've poor organisation going on in your model that you're fighting against. With some tidy up you can get it to open/close.

In the attached example I ditched the second door to stop my brain melting from the nested 'Group' naming.

See if this works for you in 2017

Can you share it here so we can troubleshoot it on file? Draw a square on world co. 0,0,0 (100;100 in) and when you use Zoom Extents do you still see the square, if not the obj is far away from world co. 0,0,0. -- This would be my guess. Transmutr is free for 7 days so try it to see if this solves your problem.

@Rich-O-Brien Ahhh, now I see! Thanks!

@Dave-R 2024, my bad, I forgot that they are called tags now. When I said group I meant to put them in same folder in the layers tab so that it is easier to distinguish between tags from an imported model and tags I've made in my own model. Not literally group as in left click- Make group.
I would like to do this with furniture that I import from "bimobject" as it usually comes with lot's of tags that make it hard for me to navigate my tags folder.

@katsia
Your post doesn't explain everything exactly.
Why did you disable anything ?
An installation of a newer version is sufficient.
To use this tool you need the latest version of it installed - you say you've done that...
You also need the latest version of the SketchUcation toolset installed for any licensing - you say you have done that...
You must also have the latest version of LibFredo6 installed - you have not confirm doing that.

After installing these files you must restart SketchUp to sync everything.

If you have done that, then what appears in the Extensions Manager dialog ?
What appears in the Tools menu submenus, and Toolbars for that extension ?

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!

@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)

Got it. Thanks!

@Rich-O-Brien

Thanks !

@Adept-Design

Please run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp and copy/paste the output into your reply.

@Adept-Design
Have you installed the newest versions of Fredo's extensions and LibFredo6, and the SketchUcation toolset [for the licensing] ?
Install extensions using the SketchUcation ExtensionStore³ system or download the RBZs from our PluginStore and use the native installer, through the Extensions Manager...
Restart SketchUp after the installations to sync everything.
There should be submenus under Tools for Fredo's extensions, including license activation etc.
There are also menu items and Toolbars to use these tools etc...
