Notepad++ Collaboration
-
I was looking at Npp and saw it comes with a collaboration plugin called NppNetNote. Anyone try it? Anyone want to?
-
Never heard of it. But I'm curious.
-
On a slight sidenote - the Plugin manage lists a Suvversion plugin. Used that one?
-
just PM's the ip address and port.
I unblocked in windows firewall, but I'm not sure about my modem firewall.
-
I just tested the port with http://www.canyouseeme.org/
even though I forwarded the post - it says it can't see me... -
hmmm.. when I set my NP++ to listen to the post that port test site said "Success". But when it isn't listening it fails...
-
Ah, I had to enable the modem firewall too. should work.
-
Tried other tools as well.
Noticed that immediately when I test the post while NP++ listens it disconnects NP++
-
Coolness!
-
Indeed, it works exceedingly well.

you can try this yourself by opening 2 instances of notepad.
-
Looks like you guys got a lot of great coding done.....

I'll get that installed so next time when I need help at 2:00am from you Jim we can share a workspace

I tried to make it working, but I ended thinking that I'm the most stupid person...
My Windows Firewall is off, I use COMODO, and until now, COMODO detected and raised a pop-up on every event. So, I doubt I have to set up something in firewall.
On host I let 'localhost', right? just who wants to connect to me must input my IP? ... Is there some port, other than 20081 ? -
So when will we able to do this on SU? When our connections are 1Gbps I guess?
-
Network speed is not a limiting issue. Collaboration in SketchUp does not necessarily mean working on the same model file.
My approach would be that each participant would work on their own local files, and then modeling actions would be synchronized to each participant using some text-based protocol.
So the limitation is with SketchUp and the Ruby API not being able to access 100% of modeling actions. I am not sure the API is capable of that with current observers, although improvements were made with 2014.
It may be easier to sync models by creating a replacement set of modeling tools, but that is a big amount of work.

Right,
Have been playing with Teamviewer lately and you could basically collaborate on SU through that - the letdown is simply refresh rate from connection speeds - hence my comment about 1Gbps. A non-technical answer
