      jbb,

      I am still experiencing some difficulties on mac: there is always a missing layer comparing to what the native panel shows. until all the layers appear in your Layers Panel all the time it will be difficult to switch definitely to it.

      please, keep up the great work.

        Even when using the debug dialog?
        Could you send me your file?

          jbb,

          I am sorry. I had completely forgotten what you taught me. after debugging the missing layer showed up.

          now I will be able to switch to LP. great.

              one other thing that could be improved: the ability to accept characters from other languages, for instance, when I write PRAÇA (square in portuguese) I get what you see in the attached image (layer at bottom). could this be done?

              regards.

                This plugin doesn't work on my laptop.
                After installing it shows, works. But after restarting SU it crashes.
                Stack:

                Error Loading File C;/Users/vremennyi/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/layers_panel.rb
                Error; #<LoadError; cannot load such file -- Win32API>
                C;/Users/vremennyi/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/layers_panel.rb;19;in `require'
                ...
                

                I'm using Win 8.1 x64.

                    Oh, I just reproduced this by accident. It seems to happen when opening an old file coming from SU2013. When saving it with SU2014 and restarting, it works fine. This is weird.

                      Yes, latest version 1.0.0.
                      Reproduced on other PC. I removed SU2013, cleaned up folders and installed SU2014(Make) and plugin.
                      I get this error just opening SU.

                      This is really weird: after saving my old 2013 file and relaunch SU - plugin is working.
                      Last opened file affects on plugin loading?

                        Now that its at 1.0 I desided to download it and it looks great.
                        One wish though. Thea Render support.
                        Oh and is it possible to doubleclick on panel to minimize it? Mine gets stuck as minimized.

                          Unfortunalty, I can't trigger Thea Render from ruby. Support for this would have to be done in Thea. Tomasz is supposed to be working on this, but it's been a while, maybe you could remind him 😄

                          It seems to be broken, I'm on it.

                                      First, thank you for the plugin !
                                      I have the same issue as vremennyi. Sketchup 2014 pro and windows 7. The plugin works well except when I try to launch sketchup by clicking a file stored on another drive (D:) or network. Then it cannot find winAPI.so.
                                      It could explain vremennyi problem on his laptop.

                                        This is a known issue in SketchUp 2014. 😞

                                          I spoke to the Trimble guys, and it seems to be an issue with SU2014 itself. In some cases, ruby fails to load properly, when double-clicking on a file.
                                          There's not much I can do... Trimble is working to fix it.
                                          Meanwhile, try to open Sketchup, and then open your files with "Files > Open".

                                          EDIT : Oh well, I'm too slow 😄

                                            Try replacing the file "Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/layers_panel.rb" by the attached one (see below), and tell me if it works.


                                            layers_panel.rb
