      • Are you running on windows or MAC?

      • If windows, what's your Internet Explorer version?

      • What's your Sketchup version?

      • When the dialog is blank, are you able to use its buttons? For exemple, does the "Add layer" button adds a new layer in Sketchup's layers window?

      • Could you try with all other plugins disabled? (Rename the plugins folder to "Plugins2", and create a new "Plugins" folder with only Layers Panel files in it)

      (Please answer all questions, thanks)

        I've had some strange behaviour creep in with layers panel recently.

        i have too

        sketchup just freezed when i clicked on "select highlighted layer"

        the plugin would be very useful, but it doesn't seem stable

            nothing much to say

            i had created some scenes previously, and then i launched layers panel plugin to select one layer, and it freezed the computer

            i shall give it another try, and try to atch better the next time i have a bug

              Hi Jiminy,

              I have another feature request for your layers panel.

              Delete layer's content while keeping layer.

              It's handy in a lot of situations, for me, for instance it's nice so I can delete the content on layers on my template file. It's also good to clean a "trash" layer I have sometimes, where I put a lot of stuff on that trash layer so I can fall back to it later on... I can imagine a lot of useful scenarios like deleting certain layers to share a file by email.

              I hope you'll be able to do it and thanks once again,

              João

                    Sorry for the late reply, was away for holidays.

                    OS is Windows 8.1 update 1
                    IE version is 11.0.9600.17239
                    SketchUp 2014 14.1.1282

                    The add layer functionality does not work when the dialogue opens blank.

                    Empty plugins folder, layers panel only, works. So time to start process of elimination, or do you have some well known offenders I could start the weeding out process with?

                      I have no idea, but you could send me your whole Plugins folder, and I'll investigate when I have time. (In at least two weeks)

                        Hi jiminy-billy-bob,

                        I like your plugin but I found some strange thing.

                        There is a differende between content of builn in layer window
                        and your plugin. In the built in there is sometimes more layer
                        than in yours.

                        OS_win7 home prem. x64
                        IE_11.0.9600.17239
                        SU_2014 latest

                        BR.

                        Daniel


                        difference

                          The offending plugin is eneroth 3D rotate. With associated . rb file removed, no layer loading issues.

                            i have strange behaviours with Layers panel, and i use eneroth 3D rotate too...

                            any suggestion to modify one or both plugins to make them work together?

                                thank you

                                i give it a try to check if it solves the issues i had

                                when i launch the plugin for the first time in a model made before the installation, an almost empty layers panel window opens, with only one layer, and i get a message "layers panel needs to be fixed"; i click "OK"
                                An html windows pops up, saying no issues are detected...
                                I close the pop up window and the empty layers panel window
                                The next time i open the layers panel window, all layers are shown

                                close the model, open it again ...
                                everything seems to be working fine...


                                no issues detected

                                  This is normal behaviour. It is triggered by the fact that there are existing layers that need to be identified by LP. This is a one-time thing, and won't trigger again (unless there are layers created while LP is disabled).
                                  Maybe I should change it to say that issues have been fixed, not only that there are no issues. It may be misleading as is.

                                  Do you guys still have issues with Eneroth's Rotate3D? I can't reproduce your errors.

                                    yes, maybe the message is not totaly accurate ; there is no problem;it is just that the existing layers must be registered by layers panel plugin

                                    somebody suggested that there was a conflict between Eneroth's Rotate 3D and your plugin, but gave no evidence; so i don't know about it; i shall be using layers panel in the coming daus, and i also run Rotate 3D code, so if i notice something wrong, i shall report it

                                      I have been using your "layers panel.rb" for 2 or 3 days, it worked fine
                                      but today, it proved to be not compatible with a plugin containing rotate3D code

                                      i am not skilled enough to say why, but it seems to confirm there is a problem...
                                      too bad, it improves a lot the sketchup native layers panel

                                          sketchup stopped suddenly, and that was it

                                          bugsplat

                                          i tried to remove some newly installed extensions, and this way i found out that "Layers panel" was involved

                                          I can't write more since i don't understand what's happening; your plugin might be perfect; i just know that if i remove it, i don't have the problem

                                            Did you submit that BugSplat? Did you enter any info in the Description or Name field we can use to look it up by?
