An hell's puzzle [image: OYYH_casse_tete.jpg] Carreful : even you find a volumic solution, that don't want to say that is possible in reality! Give all the 2 pieces starting [image: Loz3_puzzle1.jpg] puzzle_v6.skp

Yea, there's a few annoying inconsistency where the correct error isn't raised.

@greenskp said: Hey guys! I use 2014 version and found the solution. Thanks for Didier Bur on the following link: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=27019#p311954 Open clf_vertical_line_maker.rb with Notepad++ and add the code below at line 46: require 'LangHandler.rb' $uStrings = LanguageHandler.new("clf_menu_loader") Now works like a charm. Or, if you want to take the easy path, just download and install it automatically through Window>Extension Warehouse. It's called CLF Vertical Line Tools.

Random Component Replacement by Sdmitch ?

Hi Chris, Tried to enter the patch script at the start of this thread, but the the ruby script is different than what you quoted: And here's another option. If you want it to reset the component rotation and scale, edit the ruby file in a plain text editor (like Notepad for example) and after the line: if comp.typename == "Group" || comp.typename == "ComponentInstance" add the two following lines: t = Geom::Transformation.new comp.transformation = t This is it now: sela.each do |e| if e.is_a?(Sketchup::Group) || e.is_a?(Sketchup::ComponentInstance) to_move << e end ... I need to zero out the components rotation/scale What's your thoughts? Terry

@Earthmover can You do a quick explanation video tutorial? thanks!!

@box said: It's not quite what you want but Jim made a plugin to attach the camera to the sun so you can track the sun on your structure. Might help. http://sketchucation.com/plugin/853-attach_camera_to_sun Not quite the same I think...there's another plugin called Shadowtex (by Renderiza) that does something quite close by tracing a line from the center of every face to the sun's current position, but it uses this information to detect faces that are in shadow. Maybe this technique can be modified to detect angles between faces and the sun angle? I know nothing about rubyscript, so unfortunately I wouldn't even know how to begin trying to build something like this...maybe one of the gurus here can have a think about it. J

Just 'discovered' this plugin. Added an array with often used groupnames (SFB codes) which is displayed in the dropdown list instead of the layer names and this speeds up my workflow quite a bit. Many thanks for this gem Thom!

@unearthed, @dave Glad u like it @jeff Dunno @kris I'm looking into it.

And why don't put an example skp file of your problem? Any answers must redraw something! Many time losted for answer to you or other members' questions! It's so easy to reuse something! [image: NebB_soap.jpg]

Great job! If you do any more work on it, I would like to see the feature already suggested of sending the result into SU measurement input field. Additionally, I'd really appreciate: 2) Non-modal (can switch back-and-forth) without forcing close); 3) Re-sizable (can reduce size without cropping); 4) Copy results 5) History of last {3 to 9} calculations. However, if you do no more, you can rest on your laurels IMhO.

I did the whole ProfileBuilder Library folder but that didn't make every library file accessible.

@alvis said: Hi everyone Sketchup guru. I want to ask you, whether there is a plugin that can find the center of the model (group, component) by axes length, width or height? Do you mean the real world coordinate, the component local coordinate, or something else? If it is the real world coordinate then this one-liner pasted into the Ruby Console will give you that of a selected component or group. s=Sketchup.active_model.selection;s.first.bounds.center If it is the local coordinate then s=Sketchup.active_model.selection;s.first.bounds.center.transform! s.first.transformation.inverse

Yes that's the one I meant, freddo tools. Although Cotto's way will work just fine. Thanks chaps

Sounded perfect at first, but alas: he designed it not to mess with DC's Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Thank you TIG.

Perhaps this the plugin you were seeking. http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=45995

Hi, Not sure it is is exactly what you need ,but my "Divide" tool in SuSolid plugin will divide non-solids in base of internal faces. So,for example if you have one cube and one face in the middle, the output would be 2 solids. You can check here http://www.susolid.com/susolid_divide.html David Malnar

Hi,bdealva. I am working with point cloud in Revit and want to find a way to work in SketchUp. It seems that you are working with point cloud in AutoCAD, am I right? Could you please tell me how AutoCAD works with point cloud? Is it easy to modeling than Revit or some others software? Thanks a lot.
