        The Tool class activate doesn't have arguments ( initialize can)

        def activate(view)
          puts view
        end
        

        line#88 et al is superfluous and could be omitted in its entirety ? Why give it 'view' simply to print to the Console?
        It could be

        def activate
          puts Sketchup.active_model.active_view
        end
        

        with little use??

          Hi Robert111

          Just convert the lines to tubes, create an ivy leaf component and use the fur plugin - you wil need a bit of trail and error but it works ok.

          Regards

          Andre

            Thank you!!! I couldnt for the love of anything find out whats wrong! I guess the activate method is fired on initialization. stupid me. Top Post attachment updated

                Thanks for sharing this plugin. πŸ˜„ I have been waiting a while to see someone implement the ivy generator with SketchUp.
                Is it supposed to work well with any units? If my units are inches, it seems to work ok. But if they are meters, not so much. 😞

                          Hi Robert

                          I use a leaf component that came with the plants from Solo so I cannot share it here but you can find a lot of ivy on 3D Warehouse. Just load the component somewhere in the drawing and select "make from component" in fur plug-in - you'll see your component listed there. Hope this helps!

                          Cheers

                            @Mac Users: Really sorry about the plugin not working. I have absolutely no clue what the issue is, but I will borrow a mac this weekend and see what i can work out πŸ˜‰

                            @Andre: Thank you! Those renders looks great. What plugin do you use? Im currently looking at the distribution of leaves, and that lookes great πŸ‘

                            I dont know when the next update will be released, but heres a little teaser of whats to come.

                            cheers

                              Hi Guys:

                              I read all the comments and when select the plugin and I create the Ivy there is not setup so where is the setup? Can I change something or just grow and grow and that's it?

                              I place an Image of the plugin installed:

                              I missing the "Plugins/SketchupIvy/setup.rb" Is an awesome plugin already see the near future.... Thank you for the great design and comments. πŸ‘

                                I use the fur plug in to distribute the leaves.

                                      Indeed. The plugin is still in an early phase of coding and what we see is just a preliminary "proof of concept". Somewhere Pierre even wrote that he has not made the settings dialogue yet.

                                      (I am also eagerly looking forward to the development...)
