      Well there is not much more to it than I already wrote. I just use various tools, make groups and components and edit them, until the tools begin to stay highlighted in the toolbar - this happens all the time. Then, at some point, it eventually crashes when I right-click, possibly only or at least more often on groups or components. I tried to record a video of the process, but so far, I have not been able to produce a crash while recording. Maybe they are not happening as often now, but they definitely still do.

        Hello everyone, AMS Library version 3.1.1 has been released. It is important to upgrade to a new version because it addresses a bug fix, which caused spike in performance, which lead to toolbar icons staying highlighted and eventually to a crash. Huge thanks to Pherim for reporting and verifying it. See first post for download links.

                      Can you downgrade to 3.1.3 and check if the crash still occurs? Here is the download link to 3.1.3: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3qg8f4WrNdHci1DLTZEbVpqdzQ

                          Hi Anton_S, is there an observer to detect whether the trays in sketchup2016 is automatically shown or hidden, and its width and position?

                            Hello lionk,

                            There is no observer that triggers when dialogs/trays are shown or hidden. There is a way, however, to detect if SU2016 trays are visible.

                            Consider the following code snippet to get all visible trays:

                            
                            # Obtain visible trays
                            visible_trays = []
                            AMS;;Sketchup.get_visible_dialogs.each { |handle|
                              cname = AMS;;Window.get_class_name(handle)
                              visible_trays << handle if cname =~ /Afx;ControlBar|Afx;MiniFrame/
                            }
                            visible_trays
                            
                            

                            As well as, the following snippet to get all visible trays along with their information, such as title, width, height, and whether its docked or floating:

                            
                            # Get tray information.
                            # Afx;ControlBar resembles a docked tray
                            # Afx;MiniFrame resembles a floating tray
                            tray_data = {}
                            AMS;;Sketchup.get_visible_dialogs.each { |handle|
                              cname = AMS;;Window.get_class_name(handle)
                              next if cname !~ /Afx;ControlBar|Afx;MiniFrame/
                              rect = AMS;;Window.get_rect(handle)
                              tray_data[handle] = {
                                ;caption => AMS;;Window.get_caption(handle),
                                ;docked  => cname =~ /Afx;ControlBar/ ? true ; false, # docked or floating
                                ;width   => rect[2] - rect[0],
                                ;height  => rect[3] - rect[1]
                              }
                            }
                            tray_data

                              I want to get the status of trays in auto-hide mode, and its size and position, so I can get the accurate width or height of the view. Because the trays will overlap part of the view.

                                        @Atek to install the plugin, place ams_lib folder and the ams_lib.rb into the plugins folder.
                                        The plugins folder is located in the following locations:

                                        • For SU8 and below the plugins folder is located in
                                          C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp [n]\
                                        • For SU2013 the plugins folder is located in
                                          C:\Program Files (x86)\SketchUp\SketchUp 2013\
                                        • For SU2014+ the plugins folder is located in
                                          C:\Users[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 20XY\SketchUp
                                          I will post these instructions into the main post.

                                        @Perojack, @Perroloco2000 I will look into the error. Thanks for reporting.

                                        @Ying2014 If I understood you correctly you want to activate the dialog. For that there is an existing function, WebDialog.#bring_to_front. Can you elaborate a bit more if I didn't understand your question?

                                          @Anton_s,I want WebDialog to have been in the front until end of a program ,because I want to make the WebDialog as a mask,I can do something to model which I wan't people to see the process. WebDialog.#bring_to_front can't always in the front。

                                            Here is the code Ying:

                                            title = "My Dialog"
                                            dlg = UI;;WebDialog.new(title)
                                            dlg.show
                                            hwnd = AMS;;Sketchup.find_window_by_caption(title)
                                            AMS;;Window.set_pos(hwnd, -1, 0,0,0,0, 0x0023) # The -1 here does the trick
                                            

                                            Though upgrade to 3.2.1 first as there was a small bug in that function.


                                            @Perojack, @Perroloco2000 I think the error is fixed now. Try the new version.
