Waiting

How Could I know your needs? Each person must Be conscious of Their reality. I drop and delete plugins in the plugins folder almost every day. It would be interesting some plugin that we could set up a lot of folders and each folder we put numerous plugins. Thus, as our need to work that day, we could choose a specific folder with set of plugins. [image: 6roP_whatineed.jpg]

Cool video.

Could you draw a line through those vanishing points to show the horizon?

@alz said: It takes whatever object(s) you have selected and moves them to the nearest "grid" setting. . So, if I have snapping set at 1cm and I have an object situated at 10,5cm from origin, it will be snapped to 100? (I assume that my "grid" cell is 1cm, right?)

@pitrak said: That's the default behaviour of the free Windowizer indeed. 4 looks amazing, I especially like that you can input proportions for the different panes. Albeit unfortunately only in the horizontal division if I understand correctly. It does cost 10 bucks though. I think I'll order it, seems well worth the cost. you can also input proportions for the vertical divisions.

Did not think the big differance was right to pay or not pay. Thanks anyway, TIG and Dave R. As for the dishes: you're at ease.

Works fine, trying my hardest to break it..

@cobb89 said: @tig said: .. You must have the outer face of the wall and the same z-orientation of the cutting component, if one is reversed unexpected results will occur... how can I match the z-orientation of both the wall and the component?? Make sure you have a wall facing out and that your cutting component's Z [blue] axis is the same as the face's normal... That is make sure the cutting-component and wall's face 'face' the same way ?

Thanks for the advice Pilou. To be honest I'm a bit intimidated by Sketchyphysics, so I'll try and figure something out with CompoSpray. Would I be right in thinking that CompoSpray doesn't work within a volume, but I could achieve what I want by stacking planes with components sprayed onto them (deleting the planes afterwards)? Or did you have some other technique in mind?

Yeah, that kind of thing is totally do-able. Camera recorder already has a feature to turn each of its frames into a scene. It could be added fairly easily to camera recorder. But then it would not work with regular scenes I suppose. Adding it to regular scenes would also not be that hard. The user just has to specify ahead of time what FPS to use, then the plugin would get ther camera position for each frame, slightly adjust the camera position, and then make a scene there. I think the hardest part by far would be getting the camera shake to be believable. I'm afraid it is more than just randomized points. I think it is more of a randomized wave, and then determining where the camer should be on the wave at that point in time. Camera shake is not just randomly bounced from point to point per frame, it is bouncing up/down/around over multiple frames in the same direction, until you hit the upper/lower most point of the bounce, then find a new direction to bounce in. Which in my mind appears to be more like a wave. I'm sure Remus could crank that out if he ever came back. Anyone other math guys out there want to tackle this? Once we start talking waves I get nervous Chris

@djohnson.nz said: Brilliant piece of detective work Mr Hart. The last winapi.so file you made available works perfectly. Thank you for all the time you have put into this issue. Cheers, David. Thanks David. We will start using that one for our Plugins. Al

@mitcorb said: Thanks, thomthom: When you say "has focus" you mean the active window, right? Yes.

Hi, Rocky: No, I have not tried Jitter, but I am aware of it. I assumed it was designed to automatically displace every vertex in a model a random distance. I have not seen any examples of a Jittered model.

I've found RDoc to be awkward to use. Instead I now use YARD: http://yardoc.org/ So far I've only used it with TT_Lib2: http://www.thomthom.net/software/sketchup/tt_lib2/doc/TT.html

there's another way....i found out...use the follow me within profile builder if you're using preloaded crossections....

@edson said: @tig said: The v6 new Import methods could also mean that in the future importing DWG/DXFs is easier, more reliable and works on Macs - BUT that's NOT in this release - watch this space... Xref Manager is long overdue an update BUT the list IS looooong........

Fredo, Thanks for the heads up on the ones in your collection. Inside the Joint Push Pull folder I found the line to modify so that one is working again also. On my Mac have never been able to set shortcuts for toolbars inside SU. I usually work with only one row of toolbars down side and toggle on and off as needed. I assume the problem began when I installed Snow Leopard as was problem free in this regards beforehand. Many thanks for your tools.

Thanks for this thorough explanation!
