      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

                πŸ˜„

                  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˜„

                    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˜‰

                                    Can you delete everything concerning Layers Panel in your plugin folder, and reinstall it ?

                                          Actually, if it works with Thea on day, it'll behave differently. You will probably have an option directly inside Thea allowing you to choose if you want to render with Layers Panel feature or not. But you won't render from within Layers Panel as you do with Vray/Maxwell/etc. This is due to the way Thea is designed. I can't trigger the render from my plugin.

                                          I gave evrything to Tomasz to make it work, the ball is on his side now πŸ˜‰ So if you badly want this feature, you should get in touch with him !
