      It seems there isn't. I used Jim's custom toolbar plugin with some additional buttons for toggling hidden geometry, parallel and perspective camera, profiles, endpoints etc (which do not have toolbar buttons) but unfortunately that plugin does not seem to work in SU 2013.

        So no way to add other native commands to a custom toolbar?

        Google icons can't be moved to Sandbox bar?

          Well, at least this is good news for Jim and his custom toolbar plugin.

            Why would it be good news if it does not work?

                Because it can easily be fixed and Trimble is not competing with his idea of customizable toolbars.

                  Well, hopefully. Now I am afraid I'll need to memorize some further shortcuts. 😄

                    I have a post going about Jim's toolbar. Thom, Ray and TIG were looking so maybe we'll get a fix.

                      Hi all, a few things here. It's true, OS 10.6 is no longer supported, you will need to upgrade to 10.7. Most plugins should load, but there will be those that do not. Charly, I think that first one is Aeriliius's, and he has a new version. So delete that one and go install his new one:
                      http://extensions.sketchup.com/en/user/321/store

                      And also, toolbar icons are customizable only on the default SU toolbars, not ruby toolbars. I realize it might not be that apparent which is which, but sandbox, DC's Advanced Camera Tools, True North, Shadow Strings are all ruby toolbars.

                      Chris

                        Thanks Chris...

                        BTW... See all of those kool icons at the link you gave? I want every tool in sketchup, ruby or native to have the ability to make an icon and to put it on a toolbar that I made. every thing sketchup can do, I want to be able to put on a toolbar. Thanks and get on that.

                        👍 Seriously thanks for the hard work. 👍 I know everyone is being a bit hard on the SU Dev Team right now. 👿 But we do love you guys. Well, I do. 😄

                        I love Sketchup the way it is and I'm not really in need of too much more. Bug fixes yes, new tools are kool, but I can't think of anything I can't do without a plugin. So it's not like I was expecting something else and didn't get it. And I've really been needing these layout improvements since I started doing my Finals in it. But we must remember that POW's often exalt the stale bread they are given when starving. just kidding... kinda. 🤣

                          Any Idea how to go about plugins such as rendering soft such as vray, lightup, podium, twilight, thea. Do you need to reinstall them or just move folders?

                            Sepo... I'm going to recommend reinstalling each of them. Much more complex than rubys.

                              I simply copied the Twilight files into the new folder and it seems to work fine. I have not tested any others yet.

                                Maybe It will be a good idea to make a board with the plugins working or not with the new version ?

                                  Yes, Twilight migrates ok by simply copying...because it's all contained within Plugins. On Windows, at least, V-Ray also has a ASGvis folder in Program Files(x86) with dlls and stuff, some of which point to the SU installation...so it needs re-installing.

                                    Good question on those rendering plugins. It depends on how they were written. I think many come with fancy installers that tweak registry settings and add files to various locations on the computer. Some might not do anything like that, I'm really not sure. You can try to copy them over and hope it works. But you might be best off just reinstalling them, then you make sure you download the most recent version, and it gets installed how it wants you to install it.

                                    Generally, we did not do things that would break plugins moving from SU 8 to SU 2013. But there are always exceptions and unintended consequences...

                                      you can upgrade to lion (10.7.x) but that's where it stops for your computer.. you can't go to mountain lion (10.8) or higher.. but sketchup 2013 will run on lion 10.7

                                            Maybe, but other than Jim's Toolbar pretty much all plugins ought to be be working. Between them, I would imagine that the Beta testers have probably got just about every plugin out there (if they don't actually write them). They would most likely have come across most problems during the test period.
