      Does SectionCutFace work with Macs (OSX10.7, Mountain Lion)?
      No SectionCutFace context menus available when section planes are right-clicked... ❓

          You must have ONE section-plane selected - no more and nothing else selected either.

          You only get the context-menu when that one section-plane is highlighted [selected]...

          Works fine on PC and MAC for me - provided that simple rule is followed...

            I did follow that simple rule, however, I made a stupid mistake elsewhere. 😳
            I installed the plugin to the reservoir folder (mysteriously named "Plugins" just by chance! πŸ˜‰ ) that I made especially to keep and archive all the plugins… so it wasn't installed properly to begin with.
            Now it's installed to "plugins" under Sketchup folder, and working fine.
            Sorry to waste your time, guys.

              Has this plugin been updated to work with 2014?
              I can't seem to bring it into the application
              thanks

                It works just for me in Su2014 on both PC and Mac. How did you try to install it?

                  It is an Extension named 'SectionCutFace': you might need to activate it from Preferences > Extensions - BUT when first loaded it ought to be auto-activated πŸ˜•

                  Please note that it only appears in the context-menu if there is just one Section-Plane selected.
                  There are NO menu entries or toolbars... if that is what you expected.

                  Please read the brief [and I think quite clear] Usage instructions...

                    @TIG,

                    Thank you SO much for your awesome plug-in. I love using it and it saves me a great deal of time.

                    However, since upgrading to SketchUp 2014 (I'm on a Mac), I have noticed some instability at times. Have you encountered any such problems?

                    Thanks again!

                      Please advise what issues, I see none, but you might have something I can replicate...
                      I have seen a minor occasional issue with v2014 where a newly made group's contents are not visible until you select it and edit, then everything adjust OK.
                      I have trapped for this in some other tools, but not SCFace - perhaps that's it ??

                        It doesn't seem to do with newly made groups and what you were referring to. To be more specific, it seems to crash when I open an existing file (with SectionCutFace items), or have a file already open and open an additional file. I noticed you're using Windows so perhaps it's a Mac issue?

                          Thia has been reported in another thread a few days agao.
                          It has been traced to SCFace [and probably other plugins adding/removing observers], it is a known issue with v2014 on some MACs - in PMs yesterday I was assured that Trimble are looking to address this.
                          Oddly I can't get it to happen on my MAC πŸ˜’
                          Meanwhile I am looking to recast SCFace to side-step the issue.
                          Hopefully I will issue a glitch-proofed updated version sometime today...

                            Here is v4.5 http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=SectionCutFace
                            Its observers have now been adjusted to prevent the splats reported by a very few MAC+Mavericks users...
                            A known issue with v2014MR0 that will hopefully be addressed in a future MR...

                            Please test and report any further issues in this thread...

                                  It was actually updated to work with v2014 some MONTHS ago.
                                  Since then it has worked fine on all versions for ALL PCs and most MACs - but unfortunately a recently reported occasional splat issue with its observers for some v2014 MACs+Mavericks has required a rewrite - hence the latest version issued yesterday πŸ˜’

                                    Thanks so much TIG! Will give it a whirl (can't live without this plug-in anyways...) and let you know if I experience any issues!

                                        I'll include your ES strings file in future updates... meanwhile users can simply put your strings file into the ../SectionCutFace/Strings folder πŸ˜„

                                          I have just downloaded the plugin but it doesn't appear on my windows sketchup.

                                          Someone please help.

                                            TIG, is technically possible to make SectionCutFace ruby tool by polyline? revit-like void tool?
                                            or, it's far beyond?
