      Great plugin. Lots of potential. How about imperial units?
      Thanks!

        Thank you! 😄
        I have been thinking about adding imperial units, but until now has not been very high on my list of priorities. I will look into it.

        Any more votes for this?

          Hi,

          Any chance this will work in 2015 Pro...?

          Best regards

              Sorry for the late reply 😳
              The latest version for 2014 seems to work fine on SU2015, but I didn't get around to make it an "official" version yet so it got a bit lost within the thread(posted on 4 aug. 2014).

              I will try to update the main-post with the latest version tomorrow.

                Hi,
                Just a side note: to install, create a folder "bimtools" in the Plugins folder, and put the html file in it.

                where is the html file?
                the plugin create bim-tools, so i have to add bimtools, right?

                  Do you have trouble installing? I think this tip is rather outdated by now.
                  The easiest way to install is through the Sketchucation Plugin Store (Search on author: "Jan Brouwer"):
                  http://sketchucation.com/plugin-store-free-download

                  You can also rename the download from bim-tools-0.12.4.zip to bim-tools-0.12.4.rbz.
                  Then it can be installed thtough: Window --> Preferences --> Extensions
                  I will use that filetype as the default for the next version...

                      0.12.4 work fine
                      but 13.0 cannot work like 12.4 @su2015x64pro

                      such as several box could be converted to wall&floor by just one click using 12.4
                      but 13.0, some faces cannot be converted

                        Can you send me an example model (PM?), then I'll check it out.
                        In my own tests the new 0.13.0 worked on more faces than 0.12.4, so I'm curious... 😄
                        Thanks for posting the issue!

                          Now I Know What Happened

                          12.4 can work under customized catalogue, 13.0 not

                          and 13.0, if you have cleaned bim information, you must run SU again, Using File→New could not worked, isn't ?

                            Thanks! You're probably right, I also had some trouble changing between models without restarting SU a couple of weeks ago, I thought I fixed that. I will check it out!

                              Okay, I completely uprooted the observers that keep track of the active entities, and it seems much more solid now 😄

                              Can you give it a try before I upload it into the PluginStore?
                              Thanks!

                                Feels much more solid due to improved observers 😄

                                    I believe it used to work on Mac, but have never been able to test it myself.
                                    I will try to borrow a Mac and check it out 😉

                                    The error is related to reading the config file, did you by any chance modify that file?

                                      Thank you for the response.
                                      I didn't make any changes to files.
                                      Deleted plugin this morning and reinstalled through sketchucation plugin with similar error message.

                                          Really? 6 year old version and 15 releases behind ? (Trimble has long stopped supporting v7.x.)

                                          Does BIM-Tools even support v7.1 ?

                                          I'm not here much anymore.

                                            /bim-tools/lib/clsDefaultValues.rb:40

                                            Single argument String subscripts are one of the breaking changes from Ruby 1.8 to 2.0.

                                            The workaround is line[0,1], ie., [position, length] or give a range [0..0]

                                            The single argument will definitely not work in SU2013 and earlier, as Ruby 1.8 returns an integer for the character's position in the ASCII character set.

                                            I'm not here much anymore.
