Thanks so much for your response. Can't wait to play with this feature.

Very nice... this will be great for the sketch and preliminary phases.

Thanks for reply!

@Juantxo So you are a victim ! I assume if I were to click on the 'buy' button it wouldn't pay you one cent ! Complain to them directly. They are blatantly stealing. If they sell a product without its author's permission, and don't pass on the money it's plain wrong ! Also complain directly to Trimble. If they do not have an agreement to sell SketchUp in Poland then Trimble will take a dim view of this. If they do have an agreement to sell SketchUp in Poland then Trimble will take an even dimmer view of them pirating other related products. If they are based in the EU [Poland?] then they ought to be subject to some laws about 'counterfeiting' etc

Hello there, i bought profilbuilder 1.0. long time ago. Until SU Version 8.0 everything went well. With SU 8.0 i cant create new librarys. Whenever I try to I get the following error message:"unable to add Profile to favourites" Whats wrong here? Perhaps I`ve got an old Version here - if so, is there a download of a newer Version for those of us that bought the "pro version" thanks for your comments Uli

Exporting texture coordinates from SketchUp is tricky. There are other exporters you can try - I've seen some that do it right. Unfortunately I don't have time to fix this. Fixing the comma problem would be easier, but at the moment I can't promise anything... Subscribe to this thread. If I'll find time to improve this exporter I'll post an update here.

@ntxdave said: @box said: Not at all, you just need to add thickness or intesect it to remove the ZFighting, it is designed as 3D text. You will find Tig's Text Tags more useful for 2D text. They are also editable. http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=47399#p47399 I tried the intersect faces and it did not work well and the text was no longer editable. Does Tis's 2D text tag allow you to "tie" it to a face so that if I rotate the object (say box) the text rotates with it or does it behave like the standard 2D text which stays in place no matter how I rotate the model or object? Thanks - I just downloaded Tig's tool and I can make it work exactly the way I want for the text I am adding to my models much easier that the other tools. Now I need to understand how to use the rest of his 2D tool set.

No worries Carsten, but next time it breaks it's your turn to fix it and tell me how.

It's a security problem. The plugin must write the points.txt in the qhull directory, but it's in programfile directory and the plug have'nt the autorization to write there... So Qhull can't read the file because don't exist ! 2 solutions : give full autorization to the Qhull directory (bad thing but works) change the place to the qhull directory and modify the .rb to point it (I don't try...)

That, and an rbz are the next stage. I haven't because l) Lack of skills - hopefully fixable. 2) It would be best if I could include the scene exporter (not mine in any way, so I would prefer to have Author's permission)

@tig said: The save_as_version is not accessible in the current API Well that'll help to explain why I had such trouble trying to find it in the API docs! Thanks TIG, I'll look into that one!

FYI - there is a vray subforum, may be good to post questions there to get more people with vray knowledge looking at your question: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=322 I believe there will be a batch render mode included in the upcoming service pack for 2.0. Hopefully that will fulfill your request.

Alternatively you can use "Component stringer" plugin if it happens you want to do that in a different set of lines or a curve.

very nice plugin. thank you very much. works well in windows 8, sketchup 2013. Two suggestions. You can add the option, midpoint, for example If pressing the Ctrl key? It is possible that the inferences of colors (red, blue and green) Increase your depth when we press the Shift key? thank you very much.

From that I see on the image French translation is not necessary !: )

Carsten, thank you so much for both the prompt response and the great advice. I am so pleased you have a great memory!! Obviously, a 'one-touch' plugin solution would be ideal, but this workflow is fantastic and a great help. You have saved us a lot of time and frustration! Danke.....Stuart

I'm gonna go the shameless self-promotion route and advocate for this plugin that warns you when you are editing multiple components - Dan Rathburn wrote it for me: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=54082

FYI => just some thoughts; Typically windows explorer does not support file tree printing but you can down a small app from MS that allows to do that and avoids typing in long path. There is also a tree command but you get a lots of paper then; windows XP , vista, w7 and w8 do not by default show the administrator logon at the welcome screen so I doubt you are logged on as admin and normally do not want to be. You have to separately activate it and that activation is different vs version of the OS see this http://www.raymond.cc/blog/display-administrator-account-on-windows-xp-welcome-screen/; Initially when the SU2013 released the plugin folder "Plugin" would not show in the menu bar. It required both su_examples dir and assocated rb file or a plugin that activated. Those are not in your file tree maybe not needed now. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!mydiscussions/sketchup/wgHev0V84Gg Are the two PCs exactly the same; Compare file tree of both since one works and other does not;

Cool one!

Haven't tested it yet but it looks like this plugin from honoluludesktop (still giving to the community ) should do the Make Unique portion of what we're talking about. http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=346107#p346107 -Brodie
