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.

BIM addicts, my friends and I just rolled out the SketchUpBIM plugin. It's similar to the discussion on this forum - it provides simple tools to create grids, floors, and all common structural engineering and architectural primitives like walls, columns, beams, slabs and openings! We have utilized a lot of our knowledge of popular BIM products (like REVIT) and tried to follow the same methodology and process-flows. and yes, it's in English and Mac compatible check it out here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=41840 and please leave feedback and comments! Dex b/w bomastudio - very interesting work I would love to download an english version as well!

@bigstick said: Oops, sorry - I did mean 'Edit in Place'. There's nothing wrong with agreeing or disagreeing, as long as we having an amicable and reasoned discussion Of course everyone is perfectly entitled to their own views, but if you haven't tried the alternative, it's a bit difficult to compare. people are supposed to disagree. my statement was supposed to be a joke because of your typo. you said you disagreed with me and then said you preferred my method better anyway.. yeah, the edit it place feature sounds nice. i think it's the same thing as the paste in place technique i outlined except automated.

There is Grid2, by sepo, found in the Plugins Index, the red button at the top of this page. There is Grid at Ruby Library Depot, an excellent site, maintained by Didier Bur. Did not see one at Smustard.

@gaieus said: Change it to something high indeed but also press the check button. I think that will trigger the next update. so far so good, it works. THanks

Exactly. Good input If the framer you hire cannot do that with his old trusted framing square then you should not have him on the job. Unless you are acting as an architect specifying a design vs a function will possibly give you a chance to learn the world of change orders.

Thank You Krisidious. That's the one I will get.

@snowdogg said: Its not mine but I came across it. Who knows, it may already be on this forum? http://www.guitar-list.com/download-software/convert-sketchup-skp-files-dxf-or-stl One thing I forgot to add, you have to type in the extension when you save the file you are exporting, otherwise it'll just become a generic file. So this means, filename.DXF

Thank you Gulcan, that looks very neat!!! Kind of smart drop on steroids!!

Found it, in a plugins folder, but not the same one I was looking in, this folder had a few folders 6 or so, and a few rb. files, may have been the auto load folder you mentioned. At any rate it is gone. Thanks for your help!

It works fine. Thank you Didier. Edit: same issue with lines to tubes.

Jeff im not using a Mac so cheetah 3D is out of the question, but cheers anyways

Er,I searched the google sketchup API, and maybe there's no such API to do this work? So it's no use to write such a plugin like this using Ruby. I think it may be in the SelectionObserver class or camera class, and I don't find one... Dear Thomthom, Am I get the point?

Please read: 5 tips about running more than one sketchup http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=40254 Tip 1,5 & 2 may help Load scripts with ruby toolbar or autoload When you want to clear out loaded plugins script by starting another sketchup, select all, copy and paste in place to newly loaded sketchup then exit out the old tip 1) You can run more than one sketchup programs at the same time. Just hit your shortcut key twice and find out.

Interesting. Sorry it didn't work for you. Perhaps another Mac user will provide a clue as to why this is happening.

thank you for this one. i've downloaded it and used it few days ago. i've been using SU2KT 3.16 since the first time i used Kerkythea. if only i didn't see the post in this forum i might end up still using the 3.16 for months once again, thank you.
