You can already do this in a line using the existing Move-Tool +Ctrl for 'copy', pick or type offset, and then immediately type x6 to make six copies at the spacing of the first or /6 to make six copies fitting within the over all distance you picked. Similarly for a radial array use Rotate+Ctrl and a picked or typed angle with x6 to repeat six copies each with that angle or /6 to fit six copies within that over all angle... There are tools like Component-Stringer that will distribute copies along paths etc if you want more complex alignments or scaling as you go for example...

Thanks Dave R. I downloaded and actually everything seems to work fine.

Thanks

Welcome, Iain! @iain said: ... i get an error that the STL is not a solid (is this beacuse I have surfaces inside the STL?) Yes, that's correct. Use this excellent plugin to quickly highlight the problems: Thomthom's Solid Inspector

Hi, No need to convert it to CSV. Here is what Autode$k says about ptsb format: @unknownuser said: Pointcount X Y Z Intensity R G B (Intensity is a float value 0-1) Example: 2 0 0 0 .5 128 128 128 1 1 0 .5 128 128 128 Quite simple isn't it So open your file in a text editor, erase first line (number of points), save it to 'somefilename.txt' and it should work. Just set the points cloud reader first dialog to use a space delimiter, and second dialog to set X,Y,and Z coordinates as the first, second and third datum of each line (see below). I've tried this example and it works. [image: qLov_cloud1.jpg] [image: mITv_cloud2.jpg] Regards,

Well I have a bunch of experience several hours a day over a years time there abouts, my problem is the rooms are large and albeit rectangular they are in odd dimensions, I can fix that, by changing them to multiples of 24". then array the first two 1" wide strips (one on X and one on Y)then if needed for other rooms that are odd sized I can manually draw the odd spaced wall angles "bars". What happened last night when I posted my first message was I used guides 1"-24"-1", and the same with the 48" tees then drew real lines over them, and closed the ends. I had a senior moment and didn't think of using an array technique. So this morning I will try again.

Hi Gaieus! Thanks for the reply. Will check out the plugins links you suggested. Andy

I now it is mainly for Podium users but can actually be useful for anyone. Nice plants and textures for sure (and hopefully the light fixtures will be good "teasers" to buy Podium - is that was also the intent)

You can speak directly to the plugin author on the Sketchup section of the Maxwell forums: http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=107 Best, Jason.

@deanlegg said: Hi Tig I found the other folders and entered them , but when I open SU it says error in loading Any ideas? You need to do it one script at a time. Extract them into a temporary location and look at the folder structure. Check Plugins to see if files are NOT in the same locations - if so remove them. Now copy the files and files within their subfolders into Plugins. Restart and see if that one script works...

Thanks a lot Didier....now I have to study for some weeks/months to come......first learning it....then showing it to 'my' Upper Secondary Shool for students in some Building classes to use.....then explaining to the students why it's almost impossible to fully automate the process....

Call me little 'youngling'. I have done some modification in cleanup plugin. http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=22920&p=310264#p310264

Are your faces not too small? (SU has issues with generating very tiny faces). Try to scale everything up by 10 (or even 100), run the plugin and then scale back.

Just to add that scene 'Cameras' can be adjusted using AdamB's Scenetweaker plugin. No FOV adjustments but handy if you want to make changes to positions.

Here's v1.2 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=302827#p302827 - follow the links to the 'download' page in SKMtools...... The MAC jar file execution has at last been addressed [My thanks to Dave R for helping with testing etc ] On a MAC you might find you are asked if you want to run a particular jar file - if so answer 'yes' - it's a one of prompt per jar-type so it should stop after the first run. Feedback please...

@whaat said: Try opening Internet Explorer and go to Tools->Internet Options->advanced->reset...You could also try upgrading your version of Internet explorer if you haven't done so for awhile. You could also try deleting PB entirely and then re-installing. Tried all of those to no avail. @whaat said: ProfileBuilder uses a IE based web-dialog so it is possible that your IE settings are preventing it from running properly. It may still be possible that IE is the cause of the problem because I have also a problem with Yahoo Messenger which uses IE in some way too and I can't see any writing when I send or receive messages with it. I tried all sorts of things to get that one fixed and none worked so I think IE is in some way corrupted and I can't solve these problems without reinstalling Windows.
