    Time for an update of Zorro. I think this release is much more polished than the first one. Plus, you now finally have the ability to render section cut views.

    New Features:

    -made cuts work with parallel projection views
    -added slice model at section plane (right click on a section plane for context menu)
    -added nested cuts using CTRL modifier
    -improved precision of cuts

    Somes notes on this release:

    • It is recommended to use 'Slice model at Section' on a backup of your SKP file. It is a destructive process.
    • Cutting through nested components results in creation of many unique components
    • Some code was used with permission from TIG's SectionCutFace script to create a cutting plane from a section plane. Thanks!
    • Script should work for older versions of SU and also on Mac systems

    I am calling this a beta version so please post any bugs or requests in this thread. Enjoy!

    EDIT: Updated version now attached which should fix the problems that have been reported. Also added tutorial.

      Seems that I was the first to download - willplay and give feedback as much as possible. Thanks Dale for this major upgrade; I'm especially interested in this section cut effect (I love TIG's script as well).

              Let's play with this version, feedback very soon !

              MALAISE ๐Ÿ‘

              Just a try

              The former version worked perfectly ( SU V6 and V7 ).

              Using Zorro2 when trying to cut a simple box even a group, the white feather
              is gluing to the cut line, and nothing happens.

              back to Zorro.rb (1), all work perfectly.

              I hope it's help ๐Ÿ˜„

                      Hi Whaat

                      Some difficulties using Zorro2. No cutting effects, the white feather is gluing to the cut line.
                      Let's see my previous post.

                      MALAISE ๐Ÿ˜„

                      Can you post the SKP file? Are you sure you are in group-edit mode when you are doing the cut?

                          Seems works not with the orthogonal view (parallel projection)! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
                          Works fine with normal view and 2 points perspective ๐Ÿ˜‰

                          Request : a little tut video! ๐Ÿ˜„
                          Question: why not name the new Zorro file: zorro2.rb ?

                            Dear Dale,

                            I too would like to see a video tutorial, or a .pdf help file explaining the various options.

                            Kind regards,
                            Bob

                              I guess I created a small bug just before I released the plugin that I did not release was there. i will post a fixed version later today. Sorry! I will also try to create a tutorial later today if I have time. For those of you who do not want to wait, just change line 266 to read:

                              Sketchup.active_model.start_operation("Zorro")
                              

                              I belive this will fix the problem but I don't have time to fully test right now.

                                some feedback, I've just notice your last post.
                                It seems that something may be corrupted

                                    I draw the cut line by clicking two points but it doesn't cut. (using the updated version)

                                      Any errors in the Ruby Console?? Did you read the tutorial?

                                        It works perfectly. Slide model at section is really a good improvement. โ˜€
