      Well done ! Thanks for that !

      Here is the correction :
      Version 1.2.1

      Version history:
      1.2.1: Corrected : Avoid error when deleting tab placed before current tab

      1.2.0:	Added :		Added possibility to have different tabs
      		Optimzed :	Change toolbar name to "Comments (BGSketchup)"
      		Optimzed :	Avoid filling "undo" stack with comments saving operation.

        very efficient

        would be nice to be able to rename the title of the tabs

        "espanol" doesn't include "h"

        maybe i type rather fast, but the comment get written in the window very slowly; maybe it is my computer

        an internet link would be useful for me, because it would enable to attach a cloud hosted document to the model but a link to a scene would not; you can already switch scene using the native scene tabs

        the button (icon) doesn't show up the first time after installing the plugin; but it pops up the second time you launch sketcup after installing the plugin

          Hello

          Rename function added :
          Version 1.3.0

          Place your mouse on tab name, and a new button appear.
          I also added mouse title when over the button to discribe their function.

          For hyperlink... you have to be more patient 😉
          For linking a tab to a scene, I think that people wants to show a tab when user click on a scene. That is quite easy to do with an observer.

          For your slow key entry, I save the comment each time you press a key or you left the text area (to catch copy/paste events).
          That may slow down system but not as much as I understand from you...

                Hello !

                Just post a new version that can link tab a scene : when clicking on a scene, the tab appears.
                For that, click on the new button icon when mouse on tab. A new window open asking for tab name and scene link.

                Oh...just thinking that translation is missing...I'll correct soon...

                  Hmmm, no, this version appears broken for me.
                  I can't change a name or link to a scene and deleting a tab throws the error attached.

                        Sorry, I just noticed that it has a second error, thought it was a repeat but it is a different line.

                          There were a lot of bugs actually... Thanks for raising the error you had.
                          Version 1.5.1, just posted, corrects the tab deletion issue.

                            just downloaded the 1.5.1 version

                            found out you have to press on "TAB" to link a tab to a scene

                            but actually no link seems to be made on my computer, because when i clic on the tab in comment window, it doesn't show the linked scene in sketchup, and when i clic on the scene tab in sketchup, it does'nt show the linked tab comment

                            i am probably missing something...

                                Hello Glro,

                                Actually, the plugin should works like this : when selecting a scene in Sketchup, the linked (if defined) tab in plugin is shown.

                                The opposite (when clicking on a tab in plugin, show the scene in Sketchup) is not implemented yet. I could, if you need it.

                                About the javascript error you have, could you please tell me more : when do you have this error, what did you do before ?

                                  when i clic on a scene tab in sketchup, it doesn't change anything in the comment window, even if i previously set a link between a comment tab and a scene tab

                                  the error message i sent, i don't remember how it popped up

                                  here is a new one: it appeared when i clicked on the comment button to show again the comment window, after closing it using the cross in the upper left corner

                                      okay, version 1.5.2 should solve javascript issue.
                                      About your tab-scene issue, I tried from an empty file : it works.

                                      Could you please open the ruby consol window (Window/Ruby Consol) to see if error appear Inside, when setting the link and changing the scene in SU ?

                                      Thank you.

                                        no error message in the ruby console ... because it works perfectly!

                                        i clic on the scene tab and the comment window shows the corresponding tab, as said

                                        after installation, i had to close sketchup and open it again, though; just after the installation, it didn't work

                                        thank you, seems operational; i am not sure about the use of a backward link between the comment window and the scenes...

                                          I don't know how to proceed to make it work for the first time. I think, it's the same of some other extension (from other developers) I installed in the past.

                                          No big problem, I think.

                                          I just add an help file in first post of this thread, in pdf format.

                                            i agree; you just have to know it

                                            the plugin seems to be ready for use; adding an active link to a web page would be nice, but the link can be added and copied/pasted in an internet browser also, so it is not very important
