Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to substract an capsulated group from the surrounding one ...Yes
The smart author gives you both outcome combine and minus as shown above
most of the time you need a inersection to minus a object with another object
but in your special case use section plain so you can make a groups of box- inside object
and a manual way to do that?
is just delete the the inside group object
wait a min you say it the the inter combine you want
well manual way uses outliner to put inter object inside outer object group (then explode inter)@unknownuser said:

Also, I don't know if it's important for 3D print (if want to print) but i should reverse the faces of the "hole".
oh yes reverse
"Many thanks in advance!"
your welcome

Will this plugin work for Sketchup Make (v13)
When I run it I see this error in the ruby console with a simple two cube grouped system.
Error: #<TypeError: wrong argument type (expected Sketchup::Entity or Array of Sketchup::Entity)>
(eval):127:inadd' (eval):127:inset_current_point'
(eval):73:in `onLButtonUp'
(eval):127 -
Should work just the same as Pro pr SU8 - there is no change in the API between the versions. Got sample model?
-
same error

I have the same problem. It worked great in 8 but gives that error message in Sketchup Make. A made a cube turned it into a group, made a second cube turned it into a group. the cubes overlap by about 50% then I select the two groups. A window pops up and says "OSCOOLEAN needs UPDATE: OSCoolean is a beta version(Sep 2010) for Google Sketchup Version 8!
then you click on OK and get nothing.The ruby Console gives these two errors:
Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined methodbest_picked' for nil:NilClass> (eval):98:inset_current_point'
(eval):73:inonLButtonUp' (eval):98 Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined methodbest_picked' for nil:NilClass>
(eval):98:in `set_current_point'BTW I've tried this on both my MAC and Windows 7 machine. doesn't work on either.
I've included the file
Thanks

I'm having the same error also. I'm trying to trim a group with a group full of components, but get the same error with just simple cube groups.
-
Any thoughts? Has anyone gotten this to work in Sketchup make?

The toolset's author has not been active in the forums for some time... you could try to PM or email him.
Unfortunately he has compiled his toolset's script as a .rbs file, making it impossible to read or change.
I suspect that his tool has a 'SketchUp version checker' to ensure that it's at least being run in v8 - because it probably uses some functions only available in the >=v8 API...
If he is doing a version comparison using a string then something like'9'>'8'would betrue, BUT'13'>'8'isfalse- because of the starting '1' - using integer comparisons is different - 9>8 AND 13>8 are bothtrue...
So it's easy resolved usingSketchup.version.to_i>=8which returns true for 8, 13, 14 etc. If it is a baldSketchup.version.to_i!=8then the code is also easily adjusted as above...There is no simple way to side step the compiled script's version checker...

Is there a boolean plugin for SU 7? If so, can someone kindly tell me where to find it?
-
There is BoolTools by Dale Martens at Smustard. Says it works for v5 and up. This is a commercial plugin.
-
Perfect work Oscar.
I am asking me if your plugin do the same as the SU2013 Pro with solids.
I feel your plugin more clear and clean.
Would you think to export for the new SU 2013 versión?.
Me and many people will like it.
Anyway thanks for your fine work.
-
Thanks for your support and encourage.
I will review my script for SU 2013 at December since my schedule is busy now.
Again, thanks for your support！ -
Does this OSCoolean even work with Sketchup 8.0.16846? I put the .rbs into plugin folder, restarted Sketchup, I don't see any new tools or in the rightclick menu. How do you install this?
-
Hi Jo,
Your post implies that you have been able to get the OSCoolean plugin to work with SketchUp 2013. Is this correct? Good for you! I, along with the rest of the planet have been unable to use OSCoolean due to version checking code. What was your workaround? The only functionality missing from the free version of SketchUp that I need are the boolean solid features. Are you aware of any other versions that are available either as a download or for purchase?Best of luck

As far as I know it works in v8.
But because the SketchUp version check is encrypted it isn't adjustable.
I think what it's doing is comparing the version as a string and finding "13..." < "8..." [which it is] - the simple fix is to compare them as floats [to_f] then 13 > 8 !
The author could issue a quick update so v2013 and later were supported ??? -
Hello,
OSCoolean Dec 2013 version for both groups & components is uploaded in the first post - or as RBZ from the PluginStore...
And it is still free to use.
Hope this can help!
Enjoy!
Regards
Oscar -
Happy christmas!
