I feel like a kid in the candy shop with all this stuff given like this!

These are all great plugins, click on the ARCHILAND tab and download.

basic is always helpful. thanks for sharing this.

Thank you for this one. Very useful. Sig

have you had a look at Morisdov's General Locator http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=30063#p263653 @unknownuser said: The 'General Locator' Plugin extends those abilities linking 3D model entity names and 3D model entity attribute dictionary keys to spreadsheet columns. it could operate locally. john

This line can be pasted into the Ruby Console. It deletes all the Proper Animation attibutes from all Component Instances. Sketchup.active_model.definitions.each{|d| d.instances.each {|i| (ad=i.attribute_dictionaries) && ad.delete("positiondata")}}

still time to buy those plugins and donate to free plugin developers... Merry Christmas everyone...

Jim been there done that, I just don't care for the downward movement while spinning.

I could, but probably not. A tornado would be hard to make in SketchUP. That said, someone here will try to make a tornado.

Love it, Thanks a million!!!!!!!!!!!

THey developed Layout to help with printing to scale and such. Give it a try!

Thanks for the code it worked just fine. I had finally found the piece I was missing and this is what I had come up with model = Sketchup.active_model entities = model.entities ss= model.selection entity = ss.first selection_bb = entity.bounds max_dir = "blue axis" if selection_bb.height > selection_bb.depth max_dir = "green axis" if selection_bb.width > selection_bb.height then max_dir = "red axis" end else if selection_bb.width > selection_bb.depth then max_dir = "red axis" end end case max_dir when "blue axis" tr = Geom;;Transformation.rotation [0,0,0], [0,1,0], 90.degrees entities.transform_entities tr, entity when "green axis" tr = Geom;;Transformation.rotation [0,0,0], [0,0,1], 90.degrees entities.transform_entities tr, entity end Similar and the results are both ok.

Just figured that out... Thanks!

It does not work properly, or else I am doing something wrong. It does not preserve the orientation of the textures, especially on horizontal surfaces. They are not mirrored to the back face. They are merely painted with random orientation. Often they repeat numerous times.

Fantastic plug-in. Great work!! I am always amazed at the great work done by you guys in here and your willingness to share with those of us who have trouble tying our own shoes let alone write code. One query / suggestion. Is it possible to have a scalable GUI panel so that size can be increased or decreased as necessary? Thanks again!!!!

I don't believe it works anymore with current ISRI apps. See note on the web page about SU6.

ahhhh, I tried to update the the default text with su 8 but i didn't change the default leader text, which once I did, the text changed as I needed it too, awesome, great script and thanks for the quick response!

Thank you. I wish I could take credit for either design. I'm actually trying to come up with a nearly post-processless process for creating images from SketchUp utilizing more than one style at a time. Whether it's different line styles or different face styles I'd like to have a process that is idiot proof so I can do it.
