[REQ] Time dependant component
-
Hi, I'm not sure if this is the best place to request this.
I'm currently using Sketchup to run several shadow studies. The shadows are animated with each scene representing 15minute intervals. I need a way of setting either text or a clock component that shows the SU time/date based on the time set in the Shadow Settings. As it is now I have it setup manually switching layers with text on it, suffice to say this is a tedious way to do something I hope is rather simple.Rob

Can you show us an example, please? Thank you.
-
How about TBD's Time plugin? It will display the time as text.
-
That is exactly what I was looking for...thanks Dave.
-
Glad to help. Thanks be to TBD.
I haven't seen him around here for awhile. I wonder what's happened to him.
-
He is pretty much alive and kicking, busy with Podium and other things.
-
"Other things" includes wife and son (and good for him). He warned me that having a baby in the house would disrupt my scripting, and he was right
But the trade-off is worth it!
And I don't consider this hijacking too much, because this little guy is definitely a "time-dependent component" (of my life).
-
Thanks for the update, Rick. You're right, it's a good interruption.
Your Ian looks like a good fellow. Wait until he gets to 4 like my Ian is.
-
Nice kid Rick, congrats and much happiness!
-
still here, working on my secret project and Podium. and as Rick said - babysitting (as I work from home I am always babysitting

)Glad to see you're still around though. Babysitting isn't so bad before they start to crawl and/or walk. You can find them where you left them. After they get mobile, you'll be a lot busier. Enjoy it.

That's for sure - "hide and seek" is a favorite game right now, as is "try to get into an off-limits room before the door is shut"
And I think TBD's little one is almost 2 now, so he is probably talking a good deal (mostly in ruby, I'm sure).
-
Ah ha! TBD has been promoted to manager and his kid is writing all the scripts.
-
ha ha - I wish. he is more like the power button manager - shutdown when I am in the middle of something
-
That's funny. My son did that to me once.
