Fredo and tig thank you very much for your time. It really is appreciated

No thanks, SUN no I was asking the plugins are SUTool 2010 = plugins organizer thanks for answering

Most plugins use the same convention - for a loading ruby and accompanying folder with support files zipped. The only variation is some of the commercial packages comes with installers so users don't have to locate the SU plugins folder. But then you need to make an installer for each OS. As for documentation - Fredo is a good example of well documented plugins.

Maybe version 6 behaved differently? I can check... No, 2 faces on the RG plane with opposite normals, +Z and -Z, each pushpulled +10, each extruded in the direction of the normal - so one went up, the other went down.

@thomthom said: Will the browsers accept that ID you give the element? Hmmm. Yes for IE 8.

Martin, I write all my code for Windows & IE I noticed some of your code had attributes that were not quoted. W3C says... Sometimes I assemble/modify the html as a string, then use set_html. All of my html is loaded as a string I've got 3 or 4 'dynamic' web dialogs in an extension at http://www.ChampionEnt.net/tech/ur/ if any of it might interest you, let me know and I can post or send the code. Due to the 'modal window' issue, some of the code only works on a PC (settings window) Haven't really tested it lately on an Apple... Wrote some C# code to change an html file into a Ruby friendly string HTH, Greg

A polygon mesh is all just triangles? hmm... That would be interesting for the Normal Probe I just made...

My mistake it was 'Combine Textures' function I was thinking of. Haven't upgraded to 7 yet. Nice tip about the unfold plugin prior to use though.

The first version of the GostCompplugin is now released at http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=21469

That's a like a very hacky wacky workaround. And the site talks about IE5 and Navigator... a wee bit old resource.

http://www.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/Ruby/EM/materials.rb Yes, it imports pictures as materials in SketchUP but i cannot get it to work. I open it from the menu, choose a folder with jpg but nothing gets imported into materials window. There must be a problem with folder names - I changed the name of the folder with the pictures and gave it an english name - it was cyrillic and it worked then!

Thanks, Ken. OFF TOPIC: You might be interested in looking this over. See movie of April 24th here: http://www.lakeinterceptor.com/pivot/archive.php?c=RSS&o=21&w=rss Overview Video of project: http://www.lakeinterceptor.com/schedule_details.php#OutofLake Attached are some exports from SU of some very crude concept designs. [image: Na3k_HDPEUnderwaterSuspensionConcept-LakeOswegoOR.jpg] [image: 5v3p_Manhole1buoyantconcept.jpg] Also attached are images that "Solo" did for us. They are of an older design of the stainless steel underwater buoyant manhole and tethers. Initial design concepts were all done in SketchUp.

No I wasn't. I had forgotten about that. It helps a quite a bit 68 sec without, 11 sec with, and 6 sec if no start/commit used. But still first run 11 sec and second run it only takes 2 sec.

i like the way it generates the 360 degree pictures automatically. is there another way to do that automated?

ok, sorry

Thanks, Santiago. I'll use this from now on.

thanks tig. i can draw three-point circle. I meant the possibility of using as a basis for new plugins a http://vrshed.com/sketchlife/ Create a 3Point circle of equal to RotatedRectangle.rb. as shown in the video This is possible? Thanks for your answer and tutorial

thanks a lot for your reply. As a matter of fact, I suceeded to solve the problem this morning. Vista had placed one .rb files into material, don't ask me why!!! I took it away and placed it at its right place into plugins, and since everything is working fine!! Many thanks Michel
