Ha! I've just been on the forums a lot today and I happened to remember the ruby you described.

i try to start the Instructor from clinetool def getInstructorContentDirectory c = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "clinetool") return c.to_s end i have a index.html included, but it doesnt work why? This is my Animation, is also a part for Visuel Index... [image: ZFEa_clinetool.gif]

Found this plugin by daiku which allows a shortcut for rotating 90s around different axes: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=9739#p61660 Exactly what I was looking for. Just wish I could do it at the same time as placing a component, but that doesn't work. I'm going to ask in his thread. Tor

Can you post a screenshot of your plugins folder?

It smells like we should expect a great rebrending in the nearest future: 11_selection_toys, 11_cc, 11_lib..

I think you need draw 3D directly like:cube,corn,sphere with just only input their value dimention,

@malaise said: Hello Friends, Has someone feedback about Animaciya and SketchUp V8. Until now, it's not running even if installed. MALAISE Fixed script here http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=30131 (animaciya_create_15.zip)

Have you searched the Sketchucation Extensions Index, or Ruby Library Depot, or Smustard? There are other sources out there, I just can't name them. Others may know and hopefully will respond.

Hello, Ok i will write the plugin by myself as it is not complicated. I'm reading the Automatic Sketchup book. The author is a real brain! Nice book, the use of ruby for sketchup reminds me the use of skill for cadence. I was asking for a plugin because i though i had to create transformation matrix and so on (needing a lot of mathematics), but it won't be the case.

Dan, Thanks.

Encrypting a .rb file into a .rbs won't make a noticeable speed increase - it is simply away of protecting your algorithms etc. If you want a significant speed increase you need to go to the SDK and that means C++ etc...

Tig, and Jim, Thanks for the tips, good to know. Funny thing with one of my menus, because one selection is a little bigger then the rest, I am able to get 2 1/2 columns too:-)

Hi Thomthom, Tank you for your reply.

Has anyone played with this Google Su Web viewer? Will/does the SUcation forum support showing this in a post? Go Here and open download for example. You may have to refresh your display to get the download panel.

@Regular Polygon: Thank you for your efforts. These rubies you have done will be very useful.

if you don't make a rotation and shadows, maybe you can make a move a long a perpendical path to the observer Result will be the same Else I don't believe you can animate the "size" between 2 scenes Object will make first the move from scene 1 to scene 2 (movment of the same apparent new position resized) then make the "size" so that is hurting I am curious of the Jeff operation

@unknownuser said: or also why not : always right or left at each fork! i could see that working out in certain cases but it could also lead to bad selections.. i dunno, i think the key would be making it very quick to call up.. ie- no dialog boxes etc.. maybe a settings dialog or something if deemed necessary.. standard select is spacebar and i'd try to set this one to shift-spacebar.. i'm pretty sure i, and a lot of other people, would use it quite a bit..

Seems Grow by Tig make that Grow V2.1 And Component Stringer make a sort of along a path

@unknownuser said: For the still-ruby-challenged,... Start with Chapter 11 and continue through Chapter 17. You'll become Ruby-literate. It's not hard. @unknownuser said: what about using q to do rotations in an arbitrary direction not defined by the planes? All my rotate stuff allows you to specify a plane ('rg', 'rb' or 'gb') or an axis. See my Leaning Tower of Pisa in the doc. @unknownuser said: I've got an existing model with several groups that need to move around in a related, but not quite identical, way. That's where ruby literacy has to come in. Alternatively, some brilliant insight that shows me how to create a generic solution to things that move in a related but non-identical way. Brilliant insights are always welcome. Martin

Thanks, Jeff...that's perfect. It is exactly what I need as a starting point. Appreciate your help...Regards...Bob Thanks also, to all who responded to my posting. I appreciate your interest in helping out a new member.
