[Plugin] Stick groups to mesh ver. 1.2.
-
Incredible! You've just made a lot of people very happy! Thanks for all your great work.
-
There you go again! Unbelievable.
It is obvious you have a very good command of the Ruby language and the inner workings of Sketchup. Congratulations. I definitely will want to try this gem. -
The possibilities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the amazing scripts you are writing.I would like to see the possibility of "timing out" your scripts with the escape button like Fredo has in the Round corner plugin. Especially with the scripts that take a long time to process. It would be a big help.
It's amazing how you manage to allow the script to run while the user is still able to rotate and move around the scene. I think that's unique to your last two scripts.

I can foresee super-easy snow additions...Thanks, Kirill!

oh gods...
wiring, cables, armour plating.....

Yes I agree it is necessary to add
. I think it's number 1 feature in my list of updates for all 'long-lasting' scripts.@earthmover said:

Actually it is not my achievment. It is already implemented ability of sketchup API (so called 'timer' works such a way). You know, as for me, I'm amazed at the sketchup itself
(as well as it's nicely documented API). -
Hi Kirill,
You've done a new incredible tool. Now making Dali's like watches will be very easy
.
Best Wishes for 2010

This is a most welcome addition to your already impressive collection of plugins.
Thank you and merry Xmas and a happy new year to you

.Well, actually the initial idea of the script was to stick some master plan elements (paving, roads, grass etc) to the terrain surface (
boring, isn't it?), but why not stick watches too?
I think it is necessary to make some enhancements to the script (materials support, optional sticking direction etc) to make it more flexible than just master plan elements 'sticker'.

Kirill:
Your openness to suggestions is a wonderful trait, which seems to be shared by all of the Ruby masters in this forum.May you and all here have a joyous season!

To sum up:
Dude, you rock! What a great plugin.
EDIT: I seem to find a way to break your plugins! Same as my comments about the "add control points" plugin, I applied the plugin, undid the action, and then tried to reapply it. Now I have the rapidly scrolling error messages in the Ruby window the don't stop, and a pop-up error dialog that says "It is necessary to select some groups of faces before calling the command".
Only fix is to restart SU.

Hi Kirill,
What a great plugin. An incredible tool. But it doesn't work in Sketchup 7.

Awesome Kirill, glad you wrote this. This script has been the "next script" on my list to do for a long time, and I have just never quite got around to figuring it out. Saved me a lot of headaches
Seriously, very cool script!

I must say, that the most brain-damaging part was addition of edges projections of 'ruling' surface to the group
. Finaly I recalled, that sketchup API has the very powerful built-in method (it actually has a plenty of) for entities collection 'entities.intersect_with'. The rest part was more or less obvious.
So actually almost all 'housekeeping' details SU handles itself . -
thank you,I need for my model

Undo performance correct handling is my headache
. I promiss to fix it.@escapeartist said:

A kind of retro-futurism
UPD: I mean real-time sticking would look much more impressive, of course. Just imagine: you see neither '>' sign moving left-to-right, nor Jeff Bridge's digitizing characters after picking a surface, just immediately sticked geometry group. It is possible for sure (and maybe already exist in some other modeling soft), but demands a bit low level coding, I guess.
I believe, SU developing team will take in account an interest of SU community and will add similar tool in future versions of SU (at least in pro version).a bit off-topick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz8QWDBYn5w

Dear charly2008
It's work fine in my sketchup 7.1. -
Merry Xmas, New Year, etc...
Kirril, works on OSX10.5.8 + 7.1, however, 3D text needs to be exploded and regrouped, and it seems to prefer, grid patches made with sandbox, or I get issues.
but that's fine because it is so neat (and I don't mean in the corny American way), it is tidy, precision engineering tidy, 3D stainless steel printing tidy, fantastic, I certainly hope Santa bought you something nice.
Anyway heres my test, on a torrus, with a material I made using blend(dot)rb, I'll put a You tube Texture anim up tomorrow. I want to make fire in sketchup... for some reason.
all the best
john
