Video Player now included in very early stage. It pauses and resumes play.
pause and resume work, no < << ; >> > [but you didn't say there was..]
johnStart/End should be cake. Back, For'd? Hmmm. Timing tho is more worrisome. Did three tests, none of them using pause/resume: 22, 32 and 40 sec. (All should have been 32.)
Does Video Player look OK on Mac? Had to play tricks to get it to look right in MSIE.

the current, 'select all' file is running at 13.5 sec from pressing play until end without using pause, what are you timing?
EDIT: Sometimes, I get 35>37 sec if I re-run 'without' (me) deleting the existing 4 boxes (from a previous run) other times the same thing still runs fast... It is the camera move file, but the non cam version runs at 13.5ish as well@unknownuser said:

Where is the WD container generated/sized? I was going to see if I could restrict it to the button block size or add some Mac only features as an experiment, but I can't find where you hid it...

Timing: 3 tests ranging from 31+ to just under 33 for a 32 second model. (Stupid me: was setting start time at go. Now setting it, correctly, when you click to start.)

In the Conductor
initialize()method,sketch_talk_motion_classes.rb, line 217. Then position fiddled invideo_player.htmlin the <body> tag. This is what I want:

although this probably isn't what you want, I've been using it to try making a MSIE/Safari controller just using text (no images)
I think it looks quite good, but when trying to load from RCPro in PC SU, I kept getting bugsplats, which I put down to me and windows or the ruby,,,
however, when I returned to OSX SU and tried to load from RCPro it also crashed...
after a restart I loaded it with Ruby Console Editor (which I partly wrote it in) and it works fine.
I then went back to PC SU and ran it from Ruby Console...
There are other PC issues with the file , but it does load from Ruby Console and not RCPro...
might be good for bug testing... if you want to have a look, I'll PM the file...
EDIT: Similar but different, not as nice in IE, now to try PC/SU again....ahhhhh

Cool!
<body scroll=no> MSIE only and should never be used (unless you are locked into MSIE, as we are).
{overflow: hidden;} This is another one you almost never want to use, but, in the case at hand ...

Hi Martin, I finally got it to work, still not functioning, just the WD bit using shadowed/glow fonts, which you can change colours around in code (not done yet), i.e on action, on hover, etc... I'll PM the file...

Hello Martin,
This seems to be very interesting but somehow i don't really understand what it is for.
I suppose en environment in which you can easily code animations in Sketchup?Thx for helping me out here
(btw the airshow is great)

Ruby Console Pro
Magnificent Martin! simply Magnificent!
This console is exactly what i have been lamenting about since i first used SketchUp! Had SketchUp included a GUI kit i would of created something like this myself! However i bow to you!
Any who, i had a few questions/suggestions for improvement...
-
Can you combine the input and output windows into one window. Preferably with the output window at the bottom. I have no idea if things like "sizable panes" are available for user customization of the sizes? However even with no customization it would be a nice alternative to have both in one window.
-
I noticed pressing tab does not insert a tab char into the text area, it just does the usual "tabbing" of focus though the widgets. Can this be overridden to insert a tab? I don't care about losing the "tabbing" ability!
PS: oh and i did also have a problem with the buttons being cut off at the top (like a previous poster had mentioned). However I played around with the padding values and was able to rectify it. I am using Vista+SU7+Chrome. So just an FYI.
Thanks again Martin!

Missed this post. Sorry.

Yes, but don't want to. Arrange them how you like. They come up as you left them, next time.

Textareas are lame. Wish we had better. Many times I've enthusiastically started on a serious editor/ide, only to run into some insurmountable textarea roadblock.

For the still-ruby-challenged,...
Start with Chapter 11 and continue through Chapter 17. You'll become Ruby-literate. It's not hard.
@unknownuser said:
- what about using q to do rotations in an arbitrary direction not defined by the planes?
All my rotate stuff allows you to specify a plane ('rg', 'rb' or 'gb') or an axis. See my Leaning Tower of Pisa in the doc.
@unknownuser said:
- I've got an existing model with several groups that need to move around in a related, but not quite identical, way.
That's where ruby literacy has to come in. Alternatively, some brilliant insight that shows me how to create a generic solution to things that move in a related but non-identical way. Brilliant insights are always welcome.
