      Ok, I can reproduce the scrolling problem with IE6 and 7. If you do use one of these, please mind updating to IE8 (Or better : Windows 7 and IE10 !)

      I am relieved you saw this too. πŸ˜„

      I know SU uses the IE interface. My IE is Ver 8.6.

      I do very much dislike IE for several reasons, so I don't use it unless I have no choice. My Firefox is the latest (Ver 23.0.1) and I have IE Tab installed that sets up an IE session in an FF tab. Works well about 95% of the time. There are still some IE centric developers and many pages out there that use sneaky API calls that FF or other browsers cannot handle, especially around password handling and that dreadful CAPTCHA crap foisted on us. πŸ‘Ώ

      I will not upgrade Windows to 7 or 8 or whatever, even under threat of no support soon. There never really was from MS, so no loss there. Too many issues with 7 on a few other apps on my system, aside from its own deficiencies. 🀒

        IE 8.6 ? Are you sure ? The latest release is "8.0.7601.17514".
        Can you screenshot http://whatsmyua.com/ when opened with IE ? Thanks

          Oops (again) 😳 😳

          My IE is V 8.0.6001.18702

          Do you still need the screenshot?

          I have dual hi-res widescreen monitors, so I need to edit the screenshot down in size and a bit in res to send it up the pipe.

            No it's ok.
            The fact you have this issue in IE8 is really weird. I can't reproduce it.

            I'm sorry but I won't support outdated versions of this crappy browser. I know you can't have a higher version of IE on XP, but we're talking about a 12 years old OS...

              Hey guys, how about choosing what layers to render ? πŸ˜„
              Got it working with at least Vray, Kerkythea, and Maxwell suite.

                That is a very interesting concept.

                It means you could using to hide walls etc

                  It means the plugin will hide/unhide chosen layers when you hit the render button, without actually hidding/showing them. So you could have heavy vegetation layers sent to the renderer, but never activated in SU's viewport.

                      Yeah, and that's pretty simple :

                      • Start operation with UI disabled
                      • Hide/unhide chosen layers (But UI is disabled, so their visibility is not actually changed)
                      • Trigger render (like "VRayForSketchUp.launch_vray_render")
                      • Revert back layers visibility
                      • Commit operation

                        Totally outstanding plugin πŸ‘ πŸ‘
                        Would it be possible to add the ability to delete a layer into the current layer?

                        Example:
                        I have layer 5 chosen as the current default layer.
                        I want to put all the stuff in layer 8 into layer 5
                        I need the option to select 1. delete completely, 2. delete to layer 0, and 3. delete to current layer.
                        The first two exist (the red garbage can and the green garbage can)
                        Now I'd like a "blue" garbage can "delete to current layer" πŸ˜„
                        Once again: Outstanding Plugin

                          While using Ctrl-z to undelete portions of the model that I have just deleted, I get this dialog.

                            Noted bob about deleting to active layer.
                            Not sure about the undo problem, though. Do you get this every time ?

                              It still needs some finishing, but the release is not far πŸ˜‰
