First post in its thread - get that from the Plugins Index [BIG red button above here]

In all the years I have used SketchUp, I have never been comfortable using the ruby console. I use the ruby plugin ruby script all the time, but accessing stuff from the console. . .just seemed like uncharted territory for me. forgive me. . .I'm so ashamed. anyway, I won't lose sleep over it. I seem to have all the stuff in the right place. It worked fine in V7, but whatever. . .TIG's got a similar tool and I don't use this all that much anyway. Thanks for the response. D edit at TIG. . . @tig said: Why not post in the original thread? I don't know. . it was old. . .I'm dumb. . .it's Friday. . all kinds of reasons None of em good.

@unknownuser said: Dave: There's another plugin which just creates layers which are hidden on all but the current scene but I can't find the link for it at the moment. I think it's "AddHiddenLayer" http://sketchuptips.blogspot.com/2007/08/add-hidden-layer.html

@solo said: Rich, Amorph or Photo? TGI3D Amorph = $149 TGI3D Photoscan = $999 Archipelis 3d = 19 Euros Archipelis Designer = 38 Euros And Archipelis has SU integration...i know TGI3D probably has more powerful mesh manipulation features, but... -.- j

Thank You....

@kielly said: This is very frustrating but 3Skeng does not want to load correctly. The darn tools menu doesn't expand and it wants a registration every time we start up on two different machines. Any idea's why. Kielly, your internet connection need to be compliant with the synchronization process demand. For further information please have look on the lower section of the 3skeng Q&A page: http://www.3skeng.com/en/support.htm The activation process needs to be completed. Please look to all folders (including the spam folder) of your email inbox at the point you expect the email from 3skeng. You need to install one 3skeng tool (currently only "pipe") if you use 3skeng the first time. Complete the process of installing the tool from the “my 3skeng” section in the 3skeng client. The pipe tool can be used for a period with full functionality for free. In case you have a purchased license and setup a new computer you just need to use the same email address you used for the first activation on the new computer. The database will then synchronize and restore the latest status on your new computer. Regards Sebastian

I posted a question on the plugin forum and here is a link to it about your product. Could you take a look at it for me. http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=40075&e=0

Matt, Cool, I'll have a look. And of course, thanks of starting the orginal series of units plugins. -Kwok

The SketchUp API doesn't give any access to dimensions I'm afraid...

Most of the Sketchup 'scripts' that come as standard - like 'skethcup.rb' - are located in the 'Tools' folder. This includes the 'extensions' and 'langauge-handler' scripts, and the 'DC' and 'Sandbox' stuff too... In the base-set that comes in Plugins there is a set of 'Examples' scripts in a subfolder of that name - with 6 example scripts like 'linetool.rb' and 'box.rb' - these are made as 'extensions' and need to be activated - these are setup by 'examples.rb' that's found inside Plugins There is also a 'Utilities' subfolder containing the 'utilitiestools.rb' extension if it's activated - this is setup by 'utilities.rb' that's found inside Plugins. There's also an 'Ocean' subfolder and its file setup by the Plugins's 'ocean_extension.rb', which again needs to be activated... This base set of 'plugins' does not add any tools to the Plugins menu, so a virgin installation will not display a Plugins menu until at least one other 3rd party script is loading that is coded to display there.

@thomthom said: And you still get such bug? No not anymore.

Matthieu, thank you so much.

some research info, type of file, and method of setting appears to be less critical then the headers that the request comes from. Because .set_html produces an about:blank.html it is headless, which on > Saf5.0.6 appears to restrict local file access. .set_file and .set_url have less issues. there also appears to have been changes to SU's NSURL settings and recent server-side header changes that affects even v7 with Saf 5.0.3 in some load cases. but debugging is muddied by the combination of changes. (see attached)some testing SU's own WebDialogs all appear to be functioning, although the Lion/3D WareHouse login issue may be caused by the same thing. Knowing what people use Web Dialogs for, I would like the 'SU Team' to give some clear guidance on how all the variables can be made to work together. an example question I would have, can a client side 'whitelist' (local and external) be set for a WebDialog? john

ok thanks!

Place the first one on the desired spot and then do the radial array: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kI0nSmvQngY Something like this:[image: tMkC_array.jpg]

Before chasing the reversed faces I might be inclined to run Delete Coplanar Edges to perhaps reduce the number of faces that need to be reversed.

@mwm5053 said: I did like the way it would check for updates, very handy, I wish all were that way, but many don't need to be. and I think ell of the way he provided this for his scripts shows meticulous manner. The Check For Update service is actually opened to any script writer, not just mine and does not require that those scripts depend on LibFredo6 at all. @mwm5053 said: It did notice it popup more often than every 15 days but I am glad it is as I use them a lot thanks Fredo6. The actual delay is set up in the Check For Update dialog box (The default Parameter value is simply the initial default) Fredo

Now wouldn't that be cool? I do this frequently so automating it would be good. Perhaps the user would be asked to define axes of symmetry so a component could be halved, quartered or "eighthed".

Aaaar it does not work with free versions...
