Set of Tools, Mac and Toolbars

[Michaelv]

If you use a Mac and like me, like to use toolbars instead of menus here is a set of tools modifications that make the toolbar status being remembered.

These are tools I found around here to which I only added a ("toolbar.restore" or equivalent) command for that purpose. All credit should go to the original tool authors.

I cannot guarantee that these tool are their latest version as I did some a year ago or more.
Authors in most cases have been contacted. If you are one of the author, contact me or just adding toolbar.restore or changing toolbar.draw into toolbar.restore (where "toolbar" is the sketchup command variable ) will do the trick (for the Mac, PC I don't know what the influence is).

You have to replace the script like for like in your plugin folder or appropriate subfolder. You should also drag the original copy to your desktop, not erase it. If the replacement operation didn't work for some reason, or creates a bug, go back to your original (that you dragged onto the desktop). If you're not sure about this don't do it. If you have a Mac and don't care about toolbars or bringing the toolbars up every time or on a case per case basis, no need to do it either, so don't.

For the tools description and use, refer to the originals. All this does is make the toolbar more friendly on Macs.

There were old tools called Cline and Pointtool, they are now obsolete as Pentools+ works perfectly and offers more options. So I won't include these as the solution is to upgrade to Pentools+

For the Drawmetal tools, versions after 1.3.4 should have the modification in the original.
For polarline and circle by 2 points, there is work in progress either by me or the author or both, so that new better versions may come out, don't know when yet.
