[Plugin] Center on Origin UPDATE May 23, 2013
-
I have all the clf_plugins piece by piece deactivated and found out that the "clf_arc_centerpoint_finder.rb" caused the error. After reinstalling everything works perfectly again. Sorry.

Oh good, glad you got it working. That makes sense to me. I had accidentally released a bugged version of arc_centerpoint_finder that was live for a few days. Looks like you got a copy of that one - sorry!

Dear Chris,
I have now found that you are represented in the "Plugins menu" three times. Is that intentional from you?
-
Hi Charly, that is an unfortunate side-effect of my efforts to clean up my scripts. In your case, from what I can see, anything in the first and third menus are old scripts and should be updated. Unfortunately the updated versions are not yet published anywhere.....so for now you're stuck with the extra menu items - sorry about that! I'll let you know when I get all my updated scripts published. Thanks!

Hi!
Thanks for creating so useful SU plugin!
BTW, is there a way to center a model or component like the image B (not like the original script do - image A)?
Best regards!

I found out how to achieve it, changing the line
vector = point.vector_to [0,0,0]
to
vector = point.vector_to [0,0,model.bounds.height / 2]
-
Why not use something like
vector = point.vector_to(model.bounds.center)
for the center, or
pt=model.bounds.center pt.z=model.bounds.min.z vector = point.vector_to(pt)
for the center-bottom -

I use this plugin for centering an object while setting it's bounding box bottom at 0 :
center_group_bottom.rb

Hi Chris,
Tried to enter the patch script at the start of this thread, but the the ruby script is different than what you quoted:And here's another option. If you want it to reset the component rotation and scale, edit the ruby file in a plain text editor (like Notepad for example) and after the line:
if comp.typename == "Group" || comp.typename == "ComponentInstance"add the two following lines:
t = Geom::Transformation.new comp.transformation = tThis is it now:
sela.each do |e| if e.is_a?(Sketchup::Group) || e.is_a?(Sketchup::ComponentInstance) to_move << e end
...
I need to zero out the components rotation/scale
What's your thoughts?Terry
