    @seasdes:
    Yes, you can save as many layer states as you want.
    Try to overwrite any of your previously saved layer state and see if it is still there.
    I guess this is a bug but the layer state you overwrite will not be overwritten.
    Regards,

      Ken,

      I'm not sure if this has been answered, I didn't read the entire thread, but have you gone to View> Toolbars> Save Toolbar Positions before you install? I used to have a similar problem, but once I save a toolbar position set up all I have to do is run through the process of View> Toolbars> Restore Toolbar Positions, and I'm good to go. Have you tried that? Or does this particular plugin just kill any saved toolbar locations when its installed?

      Just curious, and I hope that helps!

      Thanks for you very useful script.

      Just a side note, installation of your script has re-arranged all my toolbars. This is nothing new, it happens with every script installation that adds a new toolbar. So I have to re-arrange the menus, and usually they are not in the same order, and another learning curve is required.

      But this time, I have outwitted this darn re-organizational mess. I took a JPG screen snap shot of the toolbars before installation. Imported this JPG into a Sketchup model and saved the model as SketchupToolbars. So now I just load this program and re-arrange all the tools bars as the JPG indicates. Now no new learning curve.

      Mr. Bur again thanks for the script.

          Is it also possible to group layers into groups/folders? Just like in Photoshop?

              Hi Didier, this is one of my most used plugins, many thanks!

              I'm wondering if you could add a dialogue box pop up option for the second icon,'Set Layer of clicked object current and isolated' to turn off all layers 'EXCEPT LAYER 0'?
              I almost never change current layer from Layer 0 as I have been courtout before drawing geometry on another layer rather than 0.

              Is this possible? πŸ‘

              Many thanks,

              purpose/expression/purpose/....

                Hi utiler,

                Attached RBS will do it. Unzip and overwrite your layer_manager.rbs file in your Layer Manager folder. That's it, enjoy !

                    Thanks

                    Luke

                      Is this plugin compatible with 2014? It's one of my favorites!

                        It should be.
                        Try it... πŸ˜„

                        Are you on MAC ?
                        I think the MAC version is more 'beta-like' ?

                          Tooltips for toolbar icons on hover ?!
                          I am new to this plugin and am having trouble remembering what each icon is supposed to represent.
                          Does this plugin show tooltips on hover? and if so I am wondering why I can't see any.

                          Great plugin and thanks for sharing

                            Extremely useful extension, THANK YOU.

                            For the next update, please have a look at the Show/Isolate/Hide... layer-by-Filter. I have "Existing filters:' from prior actions but when selection one of them from the drop-down box, it doesn't populate the "Filter string to * layers" entry at the bottom of the window. I have to re-type the filter string each time. Can't use the prior Existing filters.

                            I'm using SketchUp Make 2016 for compatibility with my PCs.

                            Thanks.
