        That's a very nice comparison. I was wondering what their difference would be. I can see there's uses for both the variants.

          Fak asks to have the face section on the curve path
          1001 permits to have the face section out of the curve path

                    hi Thomas,
                    I'm still finding my way around how to better organize the toolbars. Don't really like what i have now because it just fills up the entire pull down menu. I'll work on making something that is more efficient in the next upgrade.
                    Thanks

                      What would be really great was if you had a webdialog which allowed you to add and remove the various buttons. You might wan to look into Organizer. Quite a few plugins support customizing via that.

                      btw, the slope edge tool; great! And just in time. I just had a rush project today where I had a curved ramp and this tool was a lifesaver. πŸ‘

                        You beat me to it Thomas, I was going to suggest just that!!!
                        I think it would be be as simple as grouping the icons into separate toolbars so we can view which ever we really need.
                        say:
                        Architecture [Walls / partitions / stairs / windows / doors / roofs..]
                        Draw [draw / setting out / arrays....]
                        Edit [as listed in the drop down menus....]

                        Not sure how to do this but with some BIM programs I have used 'stack' their functions under an icon and identify this by a small triangle in the bottom corner of the icon. Click on the icon and a vertical drop down of the toolset appears.....

                        Hope this helps.
                        Cheers,

                          Thanks guys, for the ideas. i'll definitely look into this. Need to explore different options.
                          Thought of using the webdialog with a series of checkboxes to show and hide different group of icons, however, i'm having a hard time arranging different group of toolbar nicely in SU. They just keep pushing each other around.
                          Not sure is this a SU problem or simply i haven't master this part yet.
                          I'll experiment with both approach and see where they lead to. β˜€

                            Hi Gohch!
                            I bought the users license for 1001bit... I received the email whit the activation key... but when I activate the license and I close and restart SU the license still appears as trial.
                            In the 1001bit folder is been created the file: 1001bit.key

                            What do I have to do to activate the licens?

                            Thank's a lot!

                              Hi Tiriki,
                              Sorry, didn't check on this forum past few days. Saw your email today and emailed the 1001bit.key file to you. That should solve the issue. Feel free to drop me a note if there's any issue. Thanks

                                hi guys,
                                I've just worked out a solution to the icons/toolbar issue:
                                (included in version 1.1.4)-- ready for download.

                                i.e. a Toolbar manager that allows user to pick on what to show and hide.
                                User can also choose between putting the icons in single toolbar or separate toolbars.
                                manage toolbar function
                                manage toolbar dialog

                                You'll need to restart SU (once) for new setting to take effect. After that it'll remain persistent.

                                In addition to that, I've also added a hip roof creator.
                                hip roof tool

                                Some complex profiles(particularly those that ends with curves) cannot be fully, automatically solved.
                                in this case, the tool will do 'as much as it can'.

                                Please try them out, cheers! πŸ˜„

                                  Downloaded the trial version this morning, v1.3 and it looks like a cracking set of tools. Cheers!

                                    oh NiCE!

                                    the new toolbar system is working well on macs.. thank you

                                    (i'm replying here instead of the other thread to keep things on topic)

                                    one problem is that what i wanted to do originally is what takesh was suggesting in this post:
                                    http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?p=147577#p147577

                                    if i turn off an icon via the toolbar manager, i know longer have the icon available for my custom toolbar at the top of the SU window (i'm pretty sure the customized toolbar up top is a mac only thing)

                                    the way you've set it up though doesn't really matter now because i can just make a custom 1001bit toolbar using any of the icons.
                                    it's fine like this.

                                    thank you!

                                        Just tried the Hip Roof creator; and I get some errors:

                                        Error - Vertex with more than 2 edges found on face.
                                        followed by:
                                        Face #Sketchup::Face:0x7285f00 invalid. Cannot create hip roof from this face.

                                        I had pushpulled a box and selected the top face.
                                        If I grouped it first, then it worked fine.

                                        Why can't it create a roof from a face connected to other geometry? And could you make it so it automatically creates a copy of the face in a group from which it creates the roof? That'd be a smoother workflow.

                                            My Roof.rb (v3 http://www.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/Ruby/em_arc_page.htm ) does all of this and more. The tools will do a hipped roof made from a selected horizontal face - it can be connected to others as only its edges are needed - it's ignored afterwards: one face only - not with inner holes! Note that some shapes - like a crooked star - cannot have a single-pitch hipped roof - needs impossible 3D geometry...

                                            There are other tools in the set to make mansard/sprocketed roofs, gabled and pyramid roofs and also get roof face slopes.

                                            The tools' dialogs allow you to specify angle or pitch or height/eaves/fascia/soffit/verge/type/materials/layer etc as appropriate. Also including sloping and orthogonal fascia/soffit and different gable types at each end, and differ materials for each part e.g. fascia/soffit/slope/gable etc. There is also a help file out there...
