      Did you try to delete everything related to Layers Panel in your plugins folder, and perform a clean install ?

      About the scene issue, did you check that the auto-update option is disabled ?

        What IE version do you have installed?

        Also the Ctrl-X/Ctrl-Z dialog box has a different Char:59 instead of 65

        By the way: closing and opening Layer Panel gives the Char:59 version of the error.

          Yes, and the error pops up during the installation!

          It was enabled. I disabled it, closed and reopened SU and the scenes are saved (hooray), but I get the Char:59 error each time I switch scenes. By the way, I have to click "Yes" and then the dialog box comes up again and I have to click "Yes" a second time.

            So, the error pops up even when the dialog is closed ?

              No. I have it set to open when SU starts. But it "errors" when I turn it off and then on again.
              From previous post: Disabling the auto-update option seems counter-intuitive. What does "auto-update" do?

                It auto-updates the layer state of the current scene.
                If you turn on or off a layer, it's saved in the scene.

                    It's here guys ! πŸ˜„

                    New version 0.9 beta !

                    Changelog :

                    • OSX support
                    • Fixed clicking on layer's name not selecting it

                    Download in the plugin store !

                    A huge thanks to TT for the OSX support ! πŸ‘ πŸ‘

                    It's the first OSX version, so it still has bugs. We need you to find them πŸ˜‰

                    Glad to join in.
                    Enjoying the ability to group, merge and rearrange β˜€

                    Problem:
                    The options panel doesn't work for me.
                    None of the changes take effect.
                    Shown, reopening options(right) after setting(left).
                    Tried reinstalling and tested on 2013 also, same no go.

                    Annoyance:
                    Upon closing, Save dialog appears even if no changes made on file with this extension enabled.
                    For those of us using shortcuts or main toolbar, having floating toolbar automatically load. Deleted that line for now.

                    Suggestion:
                    You might want to enlarge icon for use in main toolbar, barely discernible as shown on top shot.

                    OSX 10.9, Safari 7.0, SU 8

                    Good luck and thanks again...

                      I have to initialize some stuff, so there is no real workaround for the save dialog.

                      As for the toolbar, can't you just hide it in the toolbars options ?

                        I have 188 rb files. I used SketchUcation Extensions Manager and was able to disable all the other extensions (that had no effect on the problem[s]). But SketchUcation Plugins Manager can only disable one plugin at a time. 😞 So disabling all of the rb files one at a time is not very desirable.
                        What I will try is: disable my Plugins folder and make a dummy with just Layers Panel and whatever basic plugins are required.

                          The SketchUcation Plugins Manager [and its other siblings - Extensions Manager and Plugins Uninstaller] will allow you to select multiple items in either column - Loaded/Enabled or Disabled - clicking and holding the Ctrl for individual items added to the selection or Shift key to add all up/down from the last one you selected [like any Windows app]...
                          Then click the red > button to disable as desired.
                          IF you made a named 'Set' [blue button] of the current Plugins set up... BEFORE doing major change... then you can easily revert to that named 'Set' on a later occasion...

                          The Managers are there to ease the pain... you just need to restart SketchUp to see the changes... πŸ˜„

                                Thanks, TIG, that's what I did: I selected all of the plugins except Layers Panel using Shift Select and hit the disable button. They all went to the disabled side. I restarted SU and only the first plugin was shown in the disable column. I tried more than once because that's how I disabled all of the extensions in the Extension Manager.

                                Neat idea πŸ‘
                                If I make a named set containing all of my plugins and another containing only Layers Panel, if I turn off the "everything" set and turn on the LP set will SU think Plugins contains only LP?

                                    Did fresh install of everything and the problem went away except for one model. I turned off all the layers and had no problem so I added one of the 40-or-so layers at a time and found one of the layers was causing the LP open/close error. Weird πŸ˜•
                                    All seems to be well here at home. When I get to work I'll see how it goes there.

                                          As for the toolbar, can't you just hide it in the toolbars options ?

                                          As far as I am aware manipulating the code is the only way. There have been many threads about toolbar management on OSX concerning automatically displaying toolbars every time SU is opened.

                                            wow - what a great plugin - thank you so much!
                                            I work a lot with the Adobe bundle and I'm really not a fan of it - but one thing I love as well, namely the layer management. So I am very happy with your plugin. Just the possibility with the typical Adobe ALT shortcut is great or even the possibility to work with layer groups. So far, your plugin works without error (SKUP 8 with Win7/64Bit).
                                            One thing I still do not understand: The use or the possibilities of the locksmbol here - does the lock prevent of deleting a layers or should it lock the layers content as well?
                                            I would appreciate a note about this question...

                                            Once again many thanks for this great plugin
