[Plugin] Axo + Iso View v1.2 20101117
-
Hello TIG,
found the script late last year. It's really great - thanks! I've been using it occasionally, and it worked fine until last night - the axo_scale command suddenly went rogue. Everything works fine until i type that command, and then nothing else works - I can't change the axo views, I can't use axo_scale_restore. and if I try to restore the scale by using ctrl-z, sketchup will encounter a bug splat. As long as i don't use that scale command, switching between views work fine.
So what I've been doing is save file -> get axo view -> export image -> let it crash -> reopen saved file to continue modeling, but as you can imagine it's not exactly efficient. I'm just wondering if you have any ideas why this happens or have encountered this problem before?
I'm using Version 8.0.3117 if that makes any difference.

Unknown problem
Is there anything weird about your model if you zoom extents etc ?
Is it a long way off the origin ?
Have you run Model > Statistics > Fix... etc ?
-
To answer your questions...
- nothing weird
- no...
- Yes...
The only thing I can think of is that it's really huge... (its a model of a city)
Anyway, some updates... in the exact same skp model, it sometimes work and it sometimes doesn't. I've tried to discover what is it that makes it work and what makes it not work, but so far it just seems completely random. There must be something though...
anyway all it really does is to make me save more often which is a good thing i guess
- nothing weird

nice and useful script!

Hi m8 very nice plugin! Do you know (or anyone else
) how i can me an isometric view facing a section cut? Before your plugin we could only have front/bacl/left/right/top I am asking if there is a way to make "perpedicular to section cut" or something like that...ty for your help and efford to create this plug in
-
ok my bad...I just realised (after some years!
) that it is already supported by right clicking on a section cut and selecting "align view" -
Thanks!

I have managed to install the Axo plugin detailed in your comment below, but am looking to alter the viewing angle on the view so I get more of a front view of the buildings... but still with Axo4545 properties. At the moment you see too much of the roof, its near top view on.
Is there anyway you know of to alter this? Or do you know anywhere I might be able to find this out?
-
oh yeah...

Hey TIG,
I've done many many many exports with this doing architecture at uni, also loads of other people use it because of me too. I was wondering if it would be possible to make some buttons for it I can put on my toolbar which would be very useful!?
Thanks again

Making a toolbar is relatively straightforward.
Write a separate .rb file that has an initial 'require' to this tool's .rb file.
Define a toolbar.
Define a 'command' referring to a tool - this already seen in the console code that runs it...
A 'command' can also have tooltips, status_bar_text, buttons assigned to it etc [make the button's PNG icons in a subfolder [AxoIsoPNGs?] and you path to those].
Now add the 'command' to the new toolbar.
Repeat as needed...
As well as making buttons for the various view changers you might want to have ones for the scale/restore options...
When your file auto-loads as Sketchup starts up it will make the toolbar...
Here's a start...
` require 'axo+iso.rb'toolbar=UI::Toolbar.new("Axo+Iso")
toolbar.restore if new_toolbar.get_last_state==TB_VISIBLEcmd1=UI::Command.new("axo3060"){axo3060()}
png1="AxoIsoPNGs/axo3060.png"
if File.exist?(png1)
cmd1.small_icon=png1
cmd1.large_icon=png1
toolbar.add_item(cmd1)
end
###`
Repeat for each command, changing the text/png/command-name etc to suit...
Get it working with one command, and then copy the working code down, edit and retest till all functions have working buttons... -
Is this plugin available for Mac?

Yes , unless a Plugins specifically states that it is PC only, or Pro only or v8M2 only etc... then it should work with other OSs/versions...
Just try it and see... it's not like you are "buying it"! -
Sorry, I have a question about this plugin, run on MacOS? I need help. Please. Thanks.
-
If the question is, "Does it run on a MAC?" then the answer is 'Yes'.
However, you need to read and understand how to activate/use the tool - explained in the download page... -
This just saved my life! AutoCAD couldn't even do this right! TY so much!

Where is the link or has it gone? Do you need to pay to download this plugin? Thanks

The download link is on the first page of the thread http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=252273#p252273 which is normal for most plugins...
You don't HAVE to pay to download, but if you want to make a donation feel free...If you can't see any attachments, then it's almost certainly because you are breaking the 'Terms of Service' you agreed to when becoming a member of SCF...
SCF IS free to use [although you can choose to donate to scripters etc, and also you could pay a modest SCF Premium Membership fee and get many freebies etc... check out that link].
To fund SCF there are discreet adverts on the pages - all interesting - relating to SketchUp, CAD, Rendering, 3dPrinting etc - the revenue from these pays to keep the site running - hosting a complex site like this costs money - although moderators etc give their time freely, the Premium Members' payments and the Shop sales etc, the bulk of the money has to come from somewhere - that's the ad-revenue...
If you have an AdBlock app running on your browser it will prevent ads displaying, therefore you are depriving SCF of that revenue, and in response no attachments are shown in your browser...
It is a simple matter to adjust your AdBlock app to make exceptions for pages on sketchucation.com AND buysellads.com [our ad generator].
Once you have done that and you reload the page the ads will show and all attachments - images, videos, download links for plugins etc - will become available to you.
Rarely members have reported issues with their FireWall software doing secondary ad-blocking - in that case add another exception to that too...
Members find the ads informative and useful anyway, no one is forcing you to read them or buy anything - but having them displayed so that our advertisers can at least know you have seen their offering, is a small price to pay for all of the benefits you will get by complying with your TofS promises... -
hellooo i made a copy for the folder in plugins but it doesnt appear on sketchup
p.s: i made a srestart for sketchup and it doesnt appear too

Hi, as stated in the very first post, first line, you have to put the .rb file (and not a folder) directly in the plugins folder and then restart SU.
