Great find, Pilou, thanks!

Pilou, you are always finding the good stuff!

tridem

many thanks Pilou, that's damn interesting! can it also export the scene to be embedded in a webpage?

pilou

You can create an "exe" standalone with your project for usb key or any support
and of course publish your project (by FTP) on any site visible by any web navigators!

If there is no programming or any line of code to write you must make some training

The Sketchup exporter is now finalised!

All your objects must be Components or groups else the alone objects will be taken
in only one selection with a component or group!
So not possibility to select something inside that!

For automatically grouping in separated group something floating in the 3D Space who are not component or group
you can use in sketchup
by Chris Fullmer : loose geometry to groups

For all codes following, you must write them on just one line for the Ruby Console!!!
This by TIG Transform a selection in components!

m=Sketchup.active_model;
m.start_operation("Faces>Compos");
n=m.active_entities;m.selection.to_a.each{|e|(g=n.add_group(e.all_connected);
g.to_component.definition.name="FaceSet#1")if e.valid? and e.parent==n.parent and e.class==Sketchup;;Face};
m.commit_operation

If you want all faces selected in components: past this in the ruby console by TIG


m=Sketchup.active_model;
n=m.active_entities;
m.selection.to_a.each{|e|(g=n.add_group(e);
g.to_component.definition.name="Face#1")if e.class==Sketchup;;Face}

If you want all all faces of a selection become groups
(except existing groups or composants)

m=Sketchup.active_model;n=m.active_entities;m.selection.to_a.each{|e|n.add_group(e)if e.class==Sketchup;;Face}

Have fun!

Ps For the Net visitor must load the Scol "Viewer" if it's not existing in it's navigator

A little video : export Sketchup to OpenSpace3D + Dynamic Component simulation
Sorry it's in French but it's visual

Can you make working doors etc?

pilou

you can't modelize nothing inside
but you can modify Size or copy past something existing
Of course you can make "rotating" "sliding" doors etc...
