      Did you turn off the preview on node "GeometrySource-1" and "GeometrySource-2"? Otherwise they'll probably cover the result of the boolean operation. Also, you should connect the "Out Geometry" pins to the inputs of the boolean operation, not the "Active" pins.

        OK! Better that works in SU MAKE except I must hide existing groups! πŸ˜‰

        not_hide.jpg

        Just something not very clear!
        How attribut easily an existing group to a specific Geometry Source Node?

        Here I create a group then create a Node Source Then click Set Geometry Source
        then I create a second group then a Second Node Source Then Click Set Geometry Source

        It's not possible to select a Node Source existing on the Screen then Click Set Geometry Source? or...
        There is a list a groups of Source objects but how to apply a specific Nodes?
        List_source.jpg

        Verify if your start Viz default axes are in the same orientation than default Axes SU Screen!
        Seems there are not! πŸ˜„

          Currently the to assign SketchUp geometry to a GeometrySource node in Viz you have to select the appropriate GeometrySource in the list, but probably selecting the node directly in Viz would be more practical.
          I'm adding it to the to do list, together with the axis orientation issue.

          Instead of hiding the groups in SketchUp, you can also move the GeometrySink group to a different location, so you'll be able to see both the operands of the boolean operation as well as the results.

                Ruby console shows ...

                Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method start' for VizPro:Module> /Users/architect7/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins/VizPro/VizProCore.rb:7:in block in module:VizPro'

                        Nevertheless Youtube video added and publicity made! πŸ€“

                        PS With what program do you make your tutorial ?

                                    Now I really got to find some time to try it out a bit more.

                                      Are there any examples showing the full potential of this plugin?
                                      It's released, but the product site is quite unconvincing.

                                      Is it possible to make a dynamic component out of the Viz definition?
