Hi,

Here is an RBZ of Rename by Layer
After installing please restart SketchUp.

[attachment=0:1hc7teg6]<!-- ia0 -->i3d_renamer.rbz<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1hc7teg6]

This is a very old plugin so I modified the code a bit, but it still needs a mayor update.

Thanks , you saved my life

Hi,
I know, it's a very old thread and an old plugin that does not work anymore.
Though I find myself struggling with slow orbit increment in SketchUp, and it feels even worse now, after I got used to Blender, which has fast and very responsive orbit - I'm not talking about performance, but how much 3D view rotates within a single move of your mouse.

What I'm saying is that it would be awesome to revive this plugin, and I would buy it even if it was paid.

Perhaps, the best and easiest solution would not be to expand orbit span beyond screen / viewport limits (although Blender can do that, and it's great), but to create a script that would just orbit quicker (greater 3D view rotation angle within a given mouse move, specified by your OS) and replace the native orbit tool. I don't know if it's possible, though.

Here's v5.0

It fixes the recently reported glitch with certain ACAD diameter symbols in some strings...

Bonjour, je souhaite repasser en version 1.3a de thrupaint qui me paraissait plus simple d'utilisation, mais je ne parviens pas à retrouver le lien. Auriez vous une solution à m'apporter? Merci

Just uninstall ThruPaint 2.0. If you have FredoTools already installed, it will reappear. Otherwise, install FredoTools.

New Update: Composition Guides v0.0.7

Available at:

Gumroad SketchUcation PluginStore SketchUp Extension Warehouse
If you already installed v0.0.6 then you can update to v0.0.7 from SketchUp:

You can follow the steps below regardless of where you downloaded the extension. However, the SketchUp Extension Warehouse and SketchUcation PluginStore have their own way to update the extension. I suggest updating the extension with the steps below if you downloaded the extension from my Gumroad store.

Go to Extensions > i3D > Compositions Guides > Check for Update If there is an Update available a Notification will pop-up Follow the Installation Instructions.

What is New:
Scene Buttons now have tooltips

The Plus button now adds a new scene with a user-specified name.
More info: A user by the name @EstOuest wanted this feature and I even created a standalone plugin that can be downloaded for free HERE. The original forum post can be found HERE.

That’s it for now.
If you find any bugs or have any suggestions & feedback then I would greatly appreciate it if you share them with me. 😄

Hi TIG
Thanks for your help. It just shows how little I understand abaut the task. May I ask for your permission to post this code somewhere else on the internet?
Besides if it isn't too hard I could pay for solving this problem. Please contact me if you interested.
Thanks again for your help.

Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it!

It took some hunting around to find (for some reason when I open the plugin store there only seem to be a handful of plugins available, not including sketchucation tools) but after searching I found a link to it from a news item and then was able to download it and then when I tried to use the extension I again got the error message but the "help with licensing" button now brought me to a page where I could activate my license by searching up my copy of it, and now the extension works.

Done !
Sorry for the inconvenience

Hi is there perhaps a way this plugin (or other) can export the co-ordinates of the polyline segments in the correct order? I am trying to reconstruct a polygon by loading in the co-ordinates from the csv, but I need them in the correct order. At the moment I am basically getting a point cloud

Thanks
Michiel

Thank you very much TIG! Updated.

I have Sketchup 2022 and this plugin doesn't seem to work for the area calculations in this version. Is there any chance it will be updated? It would be super helpful for my workflow.

Could you be more precise on what does not work?

Hi,

unfortunately i don't have a mac on which to test the bugs.

if any mac using author wants to have a look, that's fine.

time is a bit tight, but hope to update JHSPB sometime in late february if i can.

meantime, i just thought that you can edit manually the toolbar file:

"jhs_pb_settings.txt"

true means the icon will show, false it is hidden.

if you reference the list with the image below, you can make it easier to see which icons will checked (true) or not (false).

The plugin doesn't work...

Your profile says you are using SketchUp 2021 Free/Make. There is no such version, though. If you are using SketchUp 2021 Pro, it isn't terribly surprising that the plugin doesn't work. It hasn't been updated in more than 7 years. Ruby has changed at least once since then.

BTW, please fix your profile with the correct SketchUp version.

Hi Djé,

Version 1.1.0 of the plugin is now availbale.

the UCS Origin now takes the current UCS for moving it a new tool lets you define a new UCS (just like the native SU tool)

Download it at the Plugin Store (also soon at the EW):
https://extensions.sketchup.com/extension/13e533c2-ebf7-4d86-805f-59dd2254564b/axes-manager

Regards,

Maybe contact this reseller of SketchUp in Turkey and ask them to be your point of sale in Turkey

https://fga.com.tr/urun/sketchup/

They can send an email to support@sketchucation.com if they are interested in serving turkish customers.

Osvaldo,

The "pro" version of this plugin (that --if I am not mistaken-- also calculates the plastic neutral axis and plastic section modulus) is still available anywhere?

Thank you,
Jorge.

Hello Everyone,

I have been an avid user of SketchUp these past few years, mostly used in the structural design work I do. There a lot of talented people in this forum who's plugins have had a big influence in pursuing my interest in developing plugins.
This is my first post but I look forward to becoming a contributing member of this forum. Below is a plugin that could be useful to those looking to calculate the centroid and geometric properties of planar faces.

NOTE:
v1.1a moved to SCF PluginsStore http://sketchucation.com/resources/pluginstore?pln=SectionProp
Now has proper 'require' statements.
TIG.

I have additional information and tutorials posted on my website.

Hi
Trimble scan explorer is a great plugin for modeling architectural model from point cloud especially "structured" e57 files. Most 3d scanner can export this type of file. After having indexed this file with this plugin you can start modeling with SKETCHUP 2018 (further version do no work...) unfortunately it has not been updated for newer SKETCHUP version... and SKETCHUP 2018 cannot be installed anymore. it is a pity
it you know people at TRIMBLE who could make it work for the lastest SKETCHUP version it would be great. it is worth the price of "trimble scan essentials" by far...
