      two things. one is the fact that I cannot select adjacent layers by shift-clicking the top and the bottom ones. it happens once in a long while. in general I have to command-click each layer to get a group selected at once.

      This is weird, could you try to find out in which case it works?
      In the meantime, you can also click and drag the mouse to draw a rectangle, just like you would to in SU to select entities.

      @edson said:

      the other is that, differently from the native layers window, if have a few layers selected, clicking on the eye to switch them off succeeds in switching only one off, not all of the selected layers as intended. as a result, to do that I revert to native window.

      You need to shift-click on the eye.
      Take a look at shortcuts: http://sketchucation.com/plugin/751-layers_panel (See "Quick start")

      yes to both. click and drag works as well as shift-click. thanks.

          Just like Thea, I can't trigger the Twilight render from ruby, so I can't add support for it.
          It would have to be Twilight that reads Layers Panel data.

            jbb,

            One more question. can Layers Panel deal with special characters from other languages? in my case, Portuguese is my native tongue and LP is not allowing me to write well in it.

            As an example, when I write Proteção it comes out like this: Prote√ß√£o.

            Any thoughts on that?

            Cheers.

              Hi JBB,

              I have a couple more things to report back. LP is working well in the office environment so far. There are a couple things that cause no issue, but aren't working 100% for some reason.

              On my station, everything works perfectly. I have full admin access to the folder which the plugin network runs from. The users to whom I've rolled the plugin out, who have read only access, cannot alter colors for the LP layers, nor do the color previews show. The little grip by which the color is chosen and the layer is moved shows as grey only.

              Let me know what else I can provide or be of any help!

              Thanks,

              Matt

                I bet you have SU2014 and the other user runs SU2013? 😄
                SU2014 introduced a new API method which allows me to add colors to LP. But it was non-existant in earlier versions.

                  Bingo! Thanks for letting me know, it's always good to know stuff like that.

                    First of all, great plugin. This should be a basic part of SKP right out of the box.

                    However, I'm getting a specific problem with it.

                    Here is the series of events:
                    -Open file
                    -Delete a few things in the model on different layers
                    -Purge the model (which deletes the layers that are empty)
                    -Try to undo
                    -Main modelling window freezes (can't pan/zoom/rotate) but I can still click on buttons and file menu
                    -Model then bug splats

                    I'm using the plugin from a network folder but also tried it in my local plugins folder and the same problem occurs.

                    I've also downloaded and replaced the 2 files which you included on the previous page but problem still occurs.

                    However, when I try the same steps in SU8, it undoes everything just fine without any bug splats. So, not sure if it's a SU2014 problem only.

                    This is the error that comes up when I open up the ruby console:
                    Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `get_attribute' for nil:NilClass>

                    Any ideas on what might be causing this?

                            This error is related to Dynamic components, not Layers Panel.

                              Do you have any idea as to why this error only happens when Layers Panel is on?

                                  For those who want Layers Panel to support Thea Render (or the other way around), please say so in this thread : http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=384%26amp;t=58168

                                    Still get the occasional "Undo Layers Panel ID" when trying to undo an action.
