        Dear pgarmyn,

        thanks for this plug-in, its really good, but i try to do it on section elevation, but it seems won't generate the scene, is it only just for plan view??

        thanks,
        vd

        still so much to learn..

          It should work in any direction. What happens? What's your system? What is your Sketchup version?

              OK.
              I found out that a section parallel to the red-blue axises doesn't work.
              I will fix that. Thanks for testing vidy. 😉

                This PLUGIN has been UPDATED :
                Look at the top of this page.
                IMPORTANT : erase the older version if installed (= file SectionByCam-20120506-1939.rb)

                                  This looks like a great plugin and would be very useful for my workflow. When will it be updated for Sketchup 2016? Thanks.

                                      @FlorinAp reading through this thread, it hasn't worked for more than a decade. The author indicated that on 21 June, 2014. It would appear that the author has, for whatever reason, not continued to support it.

                                        Hi,
                                        I made it work with SU2023, there were 2 syntax errors with the Ruby version used at that time (2023). Try it with 2024/2025.

                                          @Didier-Bur Thank you for your effort, now it starts (no more error at start of SU), but it doesnt do what it is supposed to do, as it is described in the animation and description of the first post.
                                          It only creates its own scene... and that's it, the shadow is the same...!

                                          Edit: I dont know if it does matter, but i didnt test it in SU 2024 or 2025, but only in 2023.
                                          I stopped at 2023, and there are many reasons not to go beyond until they fix many things that have been broken starting with 2024, among those being massive rgloader problems, many incompatibilities with extensions, and another one that i will not make it public.
