          Curious problem on my Macs (work and home): The Layer Manager toolbar does not appear automatically. Each time I open SU7 I have to go to View/Tool Palettes and click on Layer Manager. Sort of a nuisance, but Layer Manager is a major player for me in SU.

          Is this normal or do I have a problem? ❓

              can someone post a screenshot or two of this layer manager. i'd like to see it before i decide whether to rearrange my toolbars.

                Layer Manager is one of my top-usage plug-ins: especially the "all layers invisible except current" (the one with the red dot) and "all layers visible" (the one with the green dot).
                Didier has just released a new version that "remembers" the state of the toolbar so you don't have to keep opening it.

                Very useful (at least for me).

                  Really? β˜€ Do you care to share where I can get it from?

                    Workaround:
                    Open the main rb file with a texte editor,
                    go to line 160
                    type: layers_tb.show
                    save the rb file

                    the end of file must look like:

                    layers_tb.add_item(cmd10)
                    layers_tb.show
                    # End of load
                    $layer_manager_menu_loaded = true
                    end
                    file_loaded("fr_layer_manager_extension_v6.rb")
                    

                    restart SU, you're done.

                      Ok, workaround works fine on my Mac.! πŸ˜„

                      Now is there also one for the Main toolbar on top? Icons do not stick there either. πŸ˜›

                      merci beaucoup.

                      updt: I tried to find one plugin that would do it to see how it was done. But it seems like it's a real problem since not one of my plugins can keep its icons up there. Be it LightUP, Subd&Smooth, JPP, Tools-on-Surface or BezierSpline. ❓ ❓

                          Hi,
                          Below is a preview of next release, still at beta:
                          lm_tb.jpg
                          I have split the script in 2 toolbars: 1 for the tools, 1 for the layers configs.

                          Features of toolbar 1:
                          Set layer of clicked object current
                          Set layer of clicked object current and isolated
                          Set layer of clicked object invisible
                          All layers visible
                          All layers invisible (except current)
                          Toggle visibility of all layers
                          Select/Deselect layer content
                          Move selection to current layer (digs in compos and groups)
                          Set layers of selection isolated (digs in compos and groups)
                          Set layers of selection invisible (digs in compos and groups)
                          Show layers by filter (add to visible layers)
                          Isolate layers by filter (digs in compos and groups)
                          Hide layers by filter (digs in compos and groups)
                          Toggle display color by layer
                          Match layer property of clicked object
                          Create layer and control behavior
                          Delete layer (digs in compos and groups)
                          Lock layer
                          Unlock layer

                          The other toolbar should have the same features than the previous release had, more or less.
                          Regards,

                          DB

                            Hello Didier,

                            It would be great iff the new version of your tool also be able to pasword protect for instance a invisable/locked layer.
                            Will it be?
                            If not,do you think it is possible inside Sketchup?

                            Thanks for all your efforts.

                            Greetings,

                                what doesn't work? some functions? or the plugin as a whole?

                                          Have you loaded the many files into the right folders ?
                                          The file layer_manager_extension_v6.rb is the only file that must go into the ../Plugins/ folder
                                          All other files that came with the plugin [there are m_a_n_y] need to be in a sub-folder ../Plugins/Layer Manager/
                                          The first rb file loads all of the others and the images for the toolbar etc that MUST be in the sub-folder.
