Sketchup 2013 issues
-
When running code without the disable_ui I have to make certain that the Outliner is not visible - otherwise it is really slow.
Here are 2 images of a kitchen. One in Sketchup 8 and the other in Sketchup 2013
-
For the images - the edge appear more jagged because you haven't exported with anti-aliasing.
-
These aren't exported - I used a snipping tool to grab exactly what I see on screen.
If you click on the images and compare them - Sketchup 8 is giving me better graphics.
-
I figured it out - I had to play around with the OpenGL settings. Sketchup 2013 defaulted to 15 0x antialias whereas Sketchup 8 was using 40 4x.
Now they are both rendering the same.

I'm glad you got it working, but I'm interested in this kitchen plugin... Do you have your own thread? I'd love to know more about it.

What I have is a C++ program that I built called CabMaker32. It handles the sizes, # of doors / drawers etc. It builds a complete cutting list and lets you fill in a few details about rendering. It then calls Sketchup with a ruby script. The Ruby script then renders the cabinets.
I did create a door plugin - that will give you door and drawer fronts in lots of wood textures and pretty much what ever size you need - inches or metric.
There are many door styles.
My web site is CabMaker32.com - you can download the free door plugin and trials for cabmaker32 and cutmasterpro (a parts optimizer that I built in C++).
I have 2 threads here

I am using SU 2013 education and I can not export anything and I have only a few selection to import? Is this a issue with 2013 or is it a part of the new license? My previous education licenses would let me export and import DWGs.

An edu license should work exactly like a full pro license (the only difference is that it's time limited for an academic year). Have you actually renewed your license for 2013? It should be free for edu license holders (AFAIK).
-
That is a fantastic plugin Garry. Excellent work. This is http://cabmaker32.com/ going on my Christmas list.
-
Your SU 8 license will NOT work with 2013.
You must get a new license for 2013.
-
Yes got my code on friday and activated?
-
@circus please update your platform info here so we can help you better.
ALso what format are you exporting to ? (There are separate libraries for each export file format.)
-
Was hoping to export DWG, and import DWG. I have a commercial licences of SU8 pro in which I have been using importing and exporting DWG, I recently purchased(friday) a copy of 2013 edu, as I am currently studying and it does not give me any export options and limited import options? So iI am back on
SU8, and Layout 2013? They seem to mixx o.k.P.
-
Circus, it should definitely have those export/import functions. Have you tried reinstalling it?
-
Drag and Drop of a picture or a sketchup file from the windows explorer to SU2013 doesn't work anymore. With Sketchup 8 it works fine. Did i miss something?
-
Works for me.
-
Also works for me.
-
Works for me...
-
ok, i've had started Sketchup with administrative rights. Without admin rights drag and drop works also for me.
