      #Description
      #Select the section plane and pulldown menu "Create Section Drawing".
      #And The section will be created in the component definition list of the model.
      #and export to "DrawingSection" folder as skp and dxf.
      #The section from solid will be filled.
      #The infomation of component or group will add text to drawings.(name,and BST info)
      #The ComponentDefinition named "BST_BASELINES" will add baselines to drawings.

      Download Version1.0:[attachment=0:jbleajfj]<!-- ia0 -->create_section_drawings.rb<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:jbleajfj]

      Looks interesting.

      Where is the "Section Drawing" folder? I can't seem to locate it?

        Hi,guanjin.
        This plugin create section to drawing.

        So the drawing of face side is not supported.

        But,The door openning in center of the picture you posted weighs on my mind.

        I want upload your file here.

        Hi,SU Fractal.
        "DrawingSection" folder will be created in the same folder with the editing sketchup model file.
        Do not create new folder when it is not saved.
        But section drawing is created as component definition ,too.
        So looking for the component list.It will be found.

        Thanks.

              Hi, tak2hata:
              I would like to say that this is a significant accomplishment based on what I saw in the video. I can see this as a very useful and valuable tool in a document production process. Congratulations.

              I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                Very nice and thank you. However, when the section is created, the window that pops up indicates how long the process took and it says "Time Wasted". I wouldn't call it "time wasted". It's not a waste at all, but it is a time saver. 👍 👍 Thank you so much.

                  I'm sorry tak2hata, I'm not following you. I looked inside the folder (on my hard drive) where the model is located ... is that what you mean?

                  Thanks.

                    Hi,SU Fractal.
                    I fixed bug about calculating baselines on mac.
                    This script was aborted on mac with this problem.
                    This version become to 1.1 .
                    So "DrawingSection" folder will be created.

                    Thanks

                            Wow, Tak2hata This is truly an amazing plugin. I can't wait to use it. The more I see plugins like this, I keep asking the question why Revit when you can SketchUp? It's plugins like this that will make Trimble proud they are getting a program that gets cooler by each user's contribution. Autodesk could NEVER say that. Great work!

                                      Sir Tak2hata you have contributed very useful plug-ins but this is off topic because i did find your plug-in multi export using the vidro. Could you please make a tutorial on exporting and adding material with vidro. i just don't know how to use the vidro renderer.

                                          Hi TAK2HATA,

                                          first of all thanks a lot for the plugin, it is very very useful. I just have a problem: if I create a section of my drawing and export it, works fine if I open the .skp file, but when I open the the .DXF one it convert it automatically from the metric system to the UK/US units. So in the end I have a drawing that is 25.4 times bigger than the original.

                                          I am using solidedge 2D software and all the drawings I am using are in metric system

                                          any suggestion?

                                          thanks

                                          Paolo

                                            After few searching i found how to install this plug in.

                                            Just in case, i´ld like to share with you one thing. After i install it, it didn´t work, but i found that if you have a number of complex objects, specially with hidden informations, probably it wont give you the results you expect.
                                            Try to clean your drawing first and try again.

                                            It was a good way to rethink a way to make a clean project.

                                            Have a nice day!
