      [floatl:wid3noag][/floatl:wid3noag]this looks like a good one. Works in Mac.

      But with Maxwell Fire the result is not correct. The wall shadows are there but the ceiling shadows and ceiling are not. View is not section. Needs more tries to figure out--sort of a half way result.

      Thank you very much for sharing this! 👍

            Dear pgarmyn,

            thanks for this plug-in, its really good, but i try to do it on section elevation, but it seems won't generate the scene, is it only just for plan view??

            thanks,
            vd

            still so much to learn..

              It should work in any direction. What happens? What's your system? What is your Sketchup version?

                  OK.
                  I found out that a section parallel to the red-blue axises doesn't work.
                  I will fix that. Thanks for testing vidy. 😉

                    This PLUGIN has been UPDATED :
                    Look at the top of this page.
                    IMPORTANT : erase the older version if installed (= file SectionByCam-20120506-1939.rb)

                                      This looks like a great plugin and would be very useful for my workflow. When will it be updated for Sketchup 2016? Thanks.

                                          @FlorinAp reading through this thread, it hasn't worked for more than a decade. The author indicated that on 21 June, 2014. It would appear that the author has, for whatever reason, not continued to support it.

                                            I made it work with SU2023, there were 2 syntax errors with the Ruby version used at that time (2023). Try it with 2024/2025.
