        Bryan, in case you're wondering if it's a plugin, well it's not. AMS library is more of a dependency for a few of my other plugins.

            Use AMS::Lib::VERSION It returns a string like "3.3.0".

              Thanks Anton, but what I'm looking for is how to use it. It's installed without a problem but I need some kind of instructions or tutorial on how to use the controls.

              Thanks.

                The first post contains a link to the library's documentation. I not particularly sure if that's what you desire though.

                  Anton, thanks. I found some great video tutorials. https://www.youtube.com/user/samketner/videos?sort=dd%26amp;view=0%26amp;shelf_id=0

                  My new problem is that the UI menu is not displaying correctly nor or the contents.. There are no tabs and the menu window is not resizable so I cannot access the contents at the bottom of the screen.

                  Here is a screen shot.

                  Any ideas?

                      Hmm. I'm not getting any errors in my SU8. Are you using the latest versions of both plugins? If not, try completely removing both and installing once again.

                      Edit: Actually I'm getting a similar error when I attempt to start MSPhysics simulation in SU8. I haven't been able to determine the cause, so try sticking to SU2013+.

                      Edit: I will ensure the compatibility with SU version prior to 2013 at some point.

                        Anton:
                        I removed all the files as per instruction. Defragged the HD. then reloaded SU8 . I have a video of what happens.
                        Watch and see. then Tell me what I did wrong.

                          Sorry, I forgot to test it on Windows XP. It should be fixed now. Upgrade to AMS Library, version 3.5.2.

                            with the AMS library i can get the name of the default tray but not the object itself or the child dialogs like "Materials" or "Entity Info" anybody knows if this feature exist or a workaround. If not is it possible to make one with the win32API?

                            Thanks

                              Galvin,

                              The Tray window structure in SU2018 is as follows:
                              Tray Window Structure.png
                              Provided that you have the handle of the tray, you can then obtain the first two levels of child windows, and then iterate through all windows of that child window to get all the dialogs.

                              With AMS Library, you can use the following function to get all trays:

                              
                              trays = AMS;;Sketchup.get_active_dialogs.find_all { |handle|
                                AMS;;Window.get_class_name(handle) =~ /Afx;MiniFrame/i
                              }
                              
                              # => [133134]
                              
                              

                              Then once you have the trays, you can get the first two levels of child windows:

                              
                              trays.each { |tray|
                                c1 = AMS;;Window.get_related(tray, 5) # GW_CHILD
                                next unless c1
                                c2 = AMS;;Window.get_related(c1, 5) # GW_CHILD
                                next unless c2
                                dialogs = AMS;;Window.get_child_windows(c2, false, false)
                                panes = dialogs.find_all { |dialog|
                                  AMS;;Window.get_class_name(dialog) =~ /CPanelHeader/i
                                }
                                panes.each { |pane|
                                  # First child window contains pane caption
                                  c3 = AMS;;Window.get_related(pane, 5) # GW_CHILD
                                  next unless c3
                                  puts AMS;;Window.get_caption(c3)
                                }
                              }
                              
                              # => Layers
                              # => Shadows
                              # => Fog
                              # => Materials
                              # => Soften Edges
                              # => Styles
                              # => Entity Info
                              
                              

                              Note that this will not work with sketchup versions prior to 14.

                                    You're right. It doesn't work. What can you do? Be patient. The author has been working on an update and will release it when it is ready.

                                            Same here. AMS lib is not compatible with SU2021, or so it seems..
                                            It's a pity.. 😞
