I was trying to mirror the 2x sub fascia on the end of the roof trusses from right side to left. select object first mirror point at peak of roof, second mirror point vertically on blue axis and third out on red axis. UPDATE I copy / pasted my model into a new file and now it works. Must have been a corrupted file. I did have a system crash at one point while working in the original file Also, the original file was the last of many Save Copy As versions as I explored different options for a garage. Thanks for your comments.

it's a beta project, developers are using it with all sort of devices, the first apps are mainly for mac products, but there are many others around. I've had mine since July, but haven;t had time to get it working with SU [yet]... john

I will try the .ZIP file technic, thanks TIG

@aerilius said: Hi, this plugin has a very different scope than what you need. File thumbnails work very differently and the approach of this plugin does not offer a solution for file thumbnails. This forum is full of discussions about thumbnails (ie. no thumbnails on Win64bit, small thumbnails on OS X), and many workarounds [1][2][3]. If you need a file to always the same thumbnail of the model from a specific perspective, you can make use of SketchUp's feature in "Model Info" to disable updating the thumbnail on save. Many thanks for clarifying that for me. All understood now. Cheers...>Stuart

Thanks TIG (as always) - i've got some already updated. i can sift through, see if other masters agree, package the lot accordingly and get them to you to check.

very nice! Everything that improves communication between people of different culture seems good to me

@kimi kimi said: Hi there Fredo. You've helped me a lot with your work and I really appreciate it! There is only one thing that bothers me with your plugins. Can you make toolbars with just one or two icons? It just takes too much space. Maybe even separate it into several plugins if you can't condense it? Not for this plugin only, but for others too. That is the only remark I have. Again, you do an awesome job, and I don't even know if I would consider using SketchUp if your plugins weren't here! Actually, for all my plugins, you can select which icons are shown, from zero to all of them. This is configured in the Default Parameters of each plugin. Fredo PS: exception is BezierSpline

There's a 20% discount for Premium members.

1001Bit has a point to point tool in its collection. It does exactly what you are asking for. I'm not sure if it is in the free version but definitely in the paid version. A very useful tool.

Thanks John and especially SDmitch.

The attached will copy and paste in place a group or component to another layer. It will appear in the Edit menu as "Paste In Place Copy of Group/Component to Layer". Paste In Place A Copy.rb Select a group or component and run the script. You will then be asked to choose a layer to paste the copy. The current layer will be initially displayed in the list. Thanks Sdmitch. Here is a test file to experiment with (SU2015 format). paste in place a copy, test.skp

@sdmitch said: ... This will reverse the selection so that everything outside the area to keep is selected and delete. It won't drill down through all the layers, groups, components... If used with 'Outliner' and a 4 walled locked guide group, it certainly speeds up a manual split... john

Here's one example... [image: KT2b_furstone.jpg]

@jimtyp said: I got the drill plugin installed and it works great as long as I have parallel faces, so a rectangular block. I have an angle block that I need to drill a hole in, and it doesn't work for that. Any ideas on how to make this cool plugin work for angle blocks? That is, where the bottom face and the top face are not parallel. You can have a look at Fredo6s VisuHole plugin.

Thanks a million

Thanks a lot!

Or get Rich's "Pen Tools" which, along with all the other goodies, has a "Point Pen". http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Pen_Tools

Excellent, I was only looking at this yesterday.

Fantastic!
