Thanks!!!
I found and fixed the issues! -
sorry to write that i still have an error message
-
I'm not sure if I found it (line 187?). Can you post the error with line number that the Ruby Console gives?
load "ae_Snapshot/Snapshot.rb" -
Here is the error message:
"Error: #<TypeError: C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/ae_Snapshot/Snapshot.rb:319:in

(I won't be back until tomorrow.)
I just made a quick change, can you test it?
-
i replaced the previous file in the rbz, by this new one, and yes, now it works perfectly
a nice tool to keep tracks, and retrieve a lost model
thank you
-
no need to open, but do the icons download to other computers
don't stay stuck when on the file posting, but I want to test if they download
it's icon doesn't upload either??john

This last release is impressively highly configurable - And then need to be tamed a bit
The fact is that I'm not easy with the {nr} parameter and the "change digit by" line bellow.
I'm not able to make the incrementation work.
Whatever I test, I obtain something like this: xyz_00**_1-0-0**.png
Need some further explanation

That depends on what you want to get (I don't know).
It's the printf format (I didn't need to implement it, otherwise it would be more complicated). You can write any separating characters and %d is replaced by the number.
It should work that for a major version 1, minor version 3, you get
[pre:1z9sy1o8]%d → file_1.skp
%d.%d (or %1d.%1d) → file_1.3.skp (number between %d sets minimum width)
%d.%2d → file_1. 3.skp (minimum width is filled up by spaces)
%d.%02d → file_1.03.skp (with additional 0, it is filled by 0)
%d-%02d → file_1-03.skp
%d_%02d → file_1_03.skp
%02d.%02d → file_01.03.skp
%02d.%03d → file_01.003.skp[/pre:1z9sy1o8] -
Ok, thank you! I understand very better now.
But Hum! incrementation still dont work for me. Is it something I'm doing wrong or is it something that don't work with the script ?
By pressing my +1 button set as above
a xyz.skp Snapshot should be saved as
xyz_01_01.png (due to %02d_%02d)
and due to "change the 2 digit by 1", I understand that the following +1 button depressed should increment the files by the second digit:
xyz_01_02.png
xyz_01_03.png...But my file is saved as
xyz_01_00.png and instead of increment it , overwrites on itself.Still need help I guess

fixed!

Hi Ae,
it is not necessarily very comfortable to be testerIt seems that increment still doesn't work...
(that decrements from 1 to 0 and then overwrites)
Cheers,
Simon.PS:It should certainly be very useful to add the usages of {nr} parameter to the first post

one step further...
would it be possible to:
scan a folder
open automatically all skp files in the folder
produce the thumbnail and the file shortcut
store them in the specified folder?Because the plugin is great to keep track of the future skp files, and it would be nice to collect the informations also for the already existing skp files...

Hi Giro,
I just popped in to post another idea and thought I'd use your query to clarify some thoughts, hope you don't mind.
@glro said:one step further...
would it be possible to:scan a folder
open automatically all skp files in the folder'SketchUp Menu' >> File >> Open >> Browse to Folder >> Select All .skp files >> Click 'Select'
on a mac all will open in SketchUp, does it not on a PC?@unknownuser said:
produce the thumbnail and the file shortcut
does it not do this, now? on the mac the 'shortcut's' not needed if you 'apply' the new icon image to the .skp file
@unknownuser said:
store them in the specified folder?
This is already a preference, but once they're on the .skp storing a copy [as a material, maybe?] in the model would be more useful [for transferring to another computer or sharing]

You can already use this with old or new files, the problem with batch processing [fully auto] is getting bad views of some models that haven't been optimally positioned when last saved. You could code in a 'Perspective >> Zoom Extents' type event, but what if its a part of a huge scheme or a 2D floorPlan etc...

Everything is made inside a SU WebDialog [could just be an extra option in this plugin]
I have a hard coded 'proof of principle' plugin that works on a mac and possibly a PC...
You can add your own borders [made in SU]
add logos
add text
can anyone else see any advantages to this concept or should I just finish it for myself and mac only.?john

i have to open each file manually one by onebut you are right about the snapshot: to make sure it is taken with the model in the right position, it would be better to have a look on it
maybe i can find the code to open automatically all files in a folder, one after the other, and set the zoom coefficient so that the model is visible completely
the only thing to do manually would be to gather all the skp files in a folder and then launch the plugin
i'll work on it soon

when trying to retrieve a model, you would have the image, and also text, to make sure it is the model you are looking for

Hey! very interesting perspectives engaged by Giro and Driven
+1 for Driven Icon Editor!As the increment feature still don't work for me, I have tried to delete the plugin and to reinstall it. I have been surprised by the fact that my previous settings are reloaded.
That means that they are stored somewhere else, probably in a ini textfile (that I have not found).
Can you please Aerilius elucidate this point ? May be from this comes my problem ?*s

Hi,
writing from my phone from Boulder (wonderful sunny morning after the bad weather yesterday).SketchUp gives us developera access to the default place where settings are stored, that is on Windows the registry. Open the start menu, "regedit" or run regedit.exe, then navigate to users, software, google, sketchup, plugins_ae
More details/news later
