[Plugin] Multiple Component Edit Warning
-
Ashscott,
If you are further developing the plugin, I got an idea from using it that I think you could consider, even if it's not that important and there are many ways to get around it:
The window could go a step further and besides displaying the message, it could have a one click button for extending zoom to all similar components, and back to where you were editing.
It's just a minor thing but the alarm box would become both text and function, and all aspects related to the anxiety of editing components would be covered.
Again, this is a very nice plugin, and should have been there from the start. Best regards and thank you.

Your idea is fantastic!
but it doesnt work with V7
I was so excited to use it as well.
-
Are you sure it doesn't work with V7? It has been tested for V7 so it should work....
-
Any Response to V7 query?
I love your ideas JQL - I will have to save a little cash to implement them as I'm paying for development out of my own pocket.
-
Ashscott,
I thought you were co-developing the plugin. It's very generous of you to pay for development and then sharing it with all of us. Most of the people here share they're own work and passion and accept donations if people willingly give them. To pay for sharing is something admirable. Specialy now, that many of us struggle with difficult financial questions.
Best regards,
JQL

Its improved my productivity - why not share it and let others gain the same?
-
We can add it to the PluginStore if you want.
-
Yeah I had a look at that but got preoccupied with something else.
Is it possible to charge for something in the PluginStore? (I'm not going to charge for this version of the plugin but I'm just curious)
-
In version 2.5 we have a working purchase through PayPal feature. Just ironing out the details.
-
...very handy and useful
thank you,Ash! -
Its my pleasure - I'll put together a little video explaining the plugin more clearly when I get time to make it.

Have you got a rough ETA?
-
We want to create a selling environment where 100% of the earning are the authors.
No commission, charges or fees.
That takes time to flesh out because of the myriad of payment options and licensing handling needed.
So ETA....new year...maybe.....or next week if you go the DIY method
-
Cool Rich, that sounds like a good idea. Could it simply be an API/extension of the PluginStore that allowed vendors to plug their own paypal portal straight in?
I'm probably over-simplifying
-
Basically, yes.
Currently vendors can sell direct here

3D SketchUp Community for Design and Engineering Professionals.

These are handled by the sellers PayPal accounts not us.
But for the PluginStore we can use the API to send us an IPN to let us know a purchase was made to your account. We can then change the BUY button to a DOWNLOAD button.
There are other things we need to talk to vendors about because they all use different licensing systems, stores etc....
It is something we need to all agree on and move forward with it.
-
A video to explain the functionality has been added up top.
Who can share the best/worst/most shocking story about accidentally editing components prior to using this plugin?

Thanks for the explanation Rich
Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) money is a big motivator. Making it easier for developers to get paid will encourage developers to "push the envelope" even more which will push SketchUp and the whole community forward.
So, whos going to build the comprehensive Finite Element Analysis plugin?

Hey sorry, I put you wrong earlier. The plugin hasn't been tested in V7 and there may be some issues there - my mistake.
