      Ok I see its in the pluginstore.
      I updated the image but it doesn't seem to be appearing in the more-info section.
      Does that take some time to update.

          Thanks Rich.
          Hopefully people will find it useful.
          Im working on adding rendering of animation sequences particularly useful for turntables.

          Im liking the pluginstore stats available for developers.

              Does this plugin calculate animation between scenes ?

                Hi Pilou,

                Working on animation but the changes are not ready yet.
                Here is a sample animated gif made with Visualizer and imagemagick.

                      Hi,

                      I'm having problems with the plugin. When it starts it successfully changes my view to the first scene. After it's done with the first scene it doesn't change the scene but renders the 1st scene repeatedly. It saves the render after the set time but also doesn't change the file name from the Visualizer default. I get this error line in the Ruby Console: "Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass>"

                      Any ideas how to fix it? I'm running the latest SketchUp Pro 2015 (v. 15.3.331 64-bit) on Win7.

                      Thank you,
                      JJ

                        Hi Lus1kka,

                        Sorry for the delayed reply. Im not sure what is going on.
                        Would you be willing to attach your sketchup scene?

                        thanks

                          Hi Willanie,

                          Thanks for the reply. I tried a couple of things and got it working! I tried reinstalling the plugin to a different path and used a couple of random files from the 3D warehouse but the problem still stayed. But what helped was when I changed the Visualizer file name and format from the default "VIZ_" and .png. So that worked. Strangely I could even then change them back to the default and it still works. Thank you so much. such a great plugin! πŸ‘

                          Best regards,
                          JJ

                            Hi Lus1kka,

                            Your comments are very appreciated.
                            You are the first user that has reported problems with the sceneexporter plugin. I will try to replicate your case. Visualizer uses the windows registry to store latest values for file names. What may be happening is that until the user sets the name at least once the registry contains invalid values. I didn't think of testing for this case.
                            If you have ideas for new features, please post them.
