Pages in Windows Menu?

[hellnbak]

Probably another dumb question. Several times I have seen a reference to Pages, in the Windows Menu. Well I have searched the Windows Menu high and low, and all I have come up with is Model Info, Layers, Materials, Scenes, etc, etc. No "Pages" anywhere. Please know that I do not just automatically come here when I have a question, I make every effort to find what I need elsewhere first, including these forums. Thanks in advance. Again.

Scenes used to be called pages so you might come across this term every now and again.

Seems like they could have called it "Scenes (formerly known as pages)". Would have saved me a lot of time and trouble. Of course, every time I research something like this I end up coming across a lot of other useful info and stuff. Thanks.

Note that much of the stuff you come across may have been created when scenes were stillcalled pages.

Before ' Layout' came along the individual 'views' you had set up with tabs etc in ' Sketchup' were called ' Pages' - there was even a ' Page Manager'...
When ' Layout' arrived they needed some thing to call their individual views [' Sheets' would have been good!]... BUT they chose ' Pages'... so the logical thing to do was to rename Sketchup's own ' Pages' as ' Scenes' - so now you can add a Sketchup ' Scene' onto a Layout ' Page'...
A ' Scene' [pka ' Page'] is more than a ' View' as it contains other information about Style, Layers etc
As has been said there is lot of legacy stuff that still refers to Sketchup ' Scenes' as ' Pages' - old hands such as myself still speak of page-tab and scene-tab in the same breath! Not least in the confusion is the Ruby API which was made before Layout - so any reference that makes to a ' Scene' is actually to a ' page' - e.g. model.pages[0].name returns the name of the first ' Scene' tab!

And the ruby API should indeed remain the same else old plugins would stop working...
