Pecan has made a SketchUp debugger, but I think it works with FreeRiDe (I think?). It sounds like a monumental task to me, but who knows. Maybe your up for the task! Chris EDIT: It uses wxSTEditor, and here's a link to his debugger plugin: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=18130&p=147722

I remember there was a hack to make applications embed Mozilla engine instead of the IE engine. But I'm not sure if it still works. There was some possibility for incompatibility as well.

Interesting, I'm not seeing that. Perhaps you have a ruby installed that is conflicting. You might need to test which ruby it is.

this is easy. the normal place for plugins on a mac is: HD/library/application support/google sketchup/sketchup/plugins. the plugins folder at the user level is used very rarely by some plugins that install themselves. ocasionally, we put some plugin there in case there is a conflict between it and some other plugin.

... So, make a temporary group of the instance and get the local_bounds if that, then explode it back as it was...

@pecan said: @davidsuke said: It is a excellent tool!! Only one bad thing, no syntax highlighting, but it's great!! Thanks for the advice!! If you want syntax highlighting you can use the editor here. http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=18130#p146440 [plugin] SuRDebug That's good, and it have auto-indent too??

@chris fullmer said: Here's a few suggestions: Make sure they are all actually over the top of the terrain. They will get stopped by hidden geometry and I think even layers that are turned off. Try selecting those that did not drop and keep running the script on them. There is a good chance that many of them will drop the 2nd or 3rd time. Maybe something there will help? Chris thanks for the help! i got most to drop guess i will just do the rest by hand it wont drop the Land FX trees, it makes them go up and down and everywhere in bt, weird, maybe the ruby was not designed to work with land fx

It is impossible with dimension objects, but possible with other methods.

I think they have been made for Notepad ++. Check out this page: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=10142 and go down to Editor suggestions to find links to a version made by Didier and Radhikari. However, I don't know if those will be helpful though. I was thinking there might be some way to use them, or at least extract or convert their information into something useable by your editor of choice. But maybe someone else has a better suggestion, Chris

Another useful app in this category is "TextWrangler"http://www.barebones.com/products/TextWrangler/ But "xCode" is hard to beat as it is made for the job and comes with every new Mac. @unknownuser said: people listed: TextMate Smultron xCode - might be included on the Mac.

Of course. In the meantime I also found the right solution. This Sketchup is very powerful when you found the correct sequence of commands script! Thanks again. I think for my project (some ambitious) I will still need your advice. I hope that you are always online these days as then. Bye

If you don't use @xxx in front of the variable name it will work - xxx. If you use @xxx the last values you entered are remembered. Don't mix @xxx and $xxx like this - I recommend you stay with @xxx. However, you must assign the @xxx values before the dialog first runs - like this [###=changes] choose=[ "Frente 1", "Frente 2" ] @choose="Frente 1" ### set initial [default] @choose enums=[choose.join("|")] ### you just could use emuns=["Frente 1|Frente 2"] prompts=["TIPO","Ancho","Alto","Espesor"] @a=600.mm if not @a ### set defaults for @a - any changes to @a will be remembered for that session of SUp... @b=709.mm if not @b ### @c=19.mm if not @c ### values=[@choose, @a, @b, @c]### results=inputbox(prompts,values,enums,"Parametros del frente") return nil if not results ### 'nil' @choose,@a,@b,@c=results ### $a >>> @a etc ########### Frente 1 pz=[] pz[0]=[0,0,0] pz[1]=[100.mm,0,0] pz[2]=[100.mm,-@c,0]### pz[3]=[0,-@c,0]### edges=entities.add_curve([0,560.mm,0],[@a,560.mm,0],[@a,560.mm,@b],[0,560.mm,@b],[0,560.mm,0])### a >>> @a etc facez=entities.add_face(pz) facez.followme(edges) ### etc etc

Sounds like a plan to me!

TIG- I am on a PC though trying to do a similar thing for the mac. I'll try some observer fun but am sure to be splatted into oblivion Thanks for your thoughts. best, Justin

Oops, came here from "new posts". Got to read those subject titles better. I took a couple of swings at ruby, then put the bat back on the rack before my hands blistered

Thanks!!! Now I can continue with my project!!

@chris fullmer said: Are you going to work on a multi-user SketchUp environment where the server database holds the actions of all users and pushes that info back out to all other users simultaneously?????? Eh, noo... not for now. Your idea is nice, anyway . What I need is to store information about materials, dimensions and other characteristics of some predefined objects that will be created. And to be able to alter that data using a webdialog interface. What is this post here? Because I find this http://www.tmtm.org/en/ruby/, but there I could find just linux packages. I don't know what I'm looking for... I just don't want to use a lot of programming languages. It's enough to me that I'm forced to use that ugly JavaScript for webdialog

Make sure you've downloaded the most recent version of the script. This thread is for 1.2, which is obsolete now. The current version is 1.3 and its here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=11212&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a Chris

...correction four... ...now that might come in handy.
