[Plugin] Layers Panel 1.2.1
-
i've found an issue? i added layers after placing a bunch into groups and when i drag the unassigned layer into a group i get a javascript error. attached is the file and the screenshot. i'm using SU 2013 pro 13.0.4812 on Windows Vista SP2. i have full permission in SU prog dir.

I didn't see but this isn't the fist time this has happened so will keep a better note next time.
Ok, thanks.
I think it's related to Observers watching layers change. I had these kind of issue in the past and resolved a lot of them, but it's possible that some remain. If it's indeed related to observers, it should occur only with old layers created before Layers Panel was installed.gullfo > I'll look at your file.

Ok Glenn, I found the issue. You simply have too many layers. It's related to the max length a url can pass between the dialog and SU. I forgot about this... I'll need to rewrite some code.
-
Thats it- it was an old layer. The reason i was changing it was to give it a capital letter, I started out with non-capitalised layer names......

does that mean theres a limit on layers?

For now, yes. I had this planned, but completely forgot about it. So I don't know the current limit. But in next version, it should be fixed.

no problem! that's what beta-testing is all about

that's the short list
once you start to use ACAD standard architecture layer sets it gets "big" -

On renamaming layers or groups directly on Layers Panel with letters from non ASCII character set (e.g. ąžįėš) this letters was changed to unicode codes.
I just tested, and it works for me when I rename a layer to "ąžįėš". Which versions of Sketchup, windows, and internet explorer are you using ?

New version 0.3.2 beta !
Changelog :
- Fix bugsplat when deleteing/purging layers with Outliner opened
- New naming conventions (For the Extension Warehouse)
Download in the plugin store !
At startup, you should get once "Error Loading File layers_panel.rb no such file to load -- layers_panel.rb". This is normal, it's just the plugin deleting the old files.

this is with release 0.3.2
same naming issue with names not changing in the LayersPanel - they are changing in the Layers Window thoughI updated the plugin this morning. The layers were made yesterday. I closed down SU. restarted SU. captured film so its not happening with the layers or folders before the plugin was installed, as all were made yesterday
CEDIT: in the time its taken me to write the above the layer has now changed to 'hello' in LayersPanel. just so you know...

Doh! I was just about to look at this.
Can you PM me the old version that crashed? I'd like to have a look at it.
(Also, what did you do to avoid the crash?) -
Is it just the Win32 API dependency that makes this Windows only?
-
And I just downloaded 0.32 from the Plugin Store but it alerts me about a new version...
-
hello again,
Still can't update layer using a shortcut key with LayersPanel open.
works fine when i close LayersPanel.

This is really weird. How about renaming a layer, then close the dialog and open it again ? Is the name updated ?

cIs the dialog focused when you're trying to do that ?
Has anyone else the same issue with shortcuts ? It works fine for me, when the dialog is not focused.@tt_su said:

Nope. A lot of things need rewriting. Pumping, etc...
BTW, I think I read somewhere that you work on mac ? Would you be ok with helping me testing on osx ?@tt_su said:

Yeah, sorry about that, it was a serverside issue. It should be fixed now.

Regarding pumping messages, I have a system working quite well in SKUI. https://github.com/thomthom/SKUI
I guess the bridge itself could be an interesting mini-framework to extract from that project. A Ruby class that subclass the UI::WebDialog class, cleaning up some of the cross compatibility issues on the Ruby side, then a JS script, or HTML builderplate that implement the communication with Ruby. That will enable JS to Ruby communication on OSX that doesn't drop messages - and Ruby and JS objects are converted seamlessly. You can even call JS functions from Ruby and get their return value.

Whow, sounds great. I'll take a look at that when I have time. Thanks a lot

Do you use GitHub / BitBucket?

Nope, but I guess I can start.
