[Plugin] Layers Panel 1.2.1

juju

I have always used Layers Panel without much trouble. Until now. Perhaps it has to do with some incompatibility to SU 2016. the fact is: icannot seem to get the main panel to appear on my screen. the layer states panel shows up but the main one does not. I have reinstalled it twice but the behavior is the same.

any ideas? thanks.

It looks like it is something local to your machine, working here. (Win 8.1, SU 2016 x64)

have you had more monitors connected recently?

hi juju,

no, the setup is the same as before. but I am on mac so the fact that it is working for you does not mean much in this case.

thanks.

I am also having this problem and am also on a Mac. The main panel simply will not show on my computer screen. This plugin worked well for several months before the main panel disappeared. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin. Near as I can tell, the panel "thinks" it is showing properly. The Mac version of Sketchup doesn't have any kind of "show all panels onscreen" sort of command.

Layers Panel was a very useful plug-in while it worked. If anyone has a suggestion for fixing this problem, pleas post it.

I am afraid our complaints will reach a dead end as the author of this extension is no longer developing nor mantaining it. pity. it showed great promise.

perhaps someone would take it up and fix it.

Amazing plugin mate, great work.

SU should implement it by default.

I have a request, cna you add Octane Render support?

I use Octane to render my work, and would be a charme if i had the Octane layer option.

You can find more information in here.

Layers Panel is quite old, I don't think it works with V-Ray 3, sorry.

I know this is an old thread and no one has posted any changes to the open source code. Sure would be nice if someone would take up the task of updating this to SU 19 and adding support for line types. Sure heat to give up this tool but without line type support it's pretty much useless now, Quite the shame sense this layer manager is so much better than the SU layer tool

There is a new plugin based on Layers Panel: https://extensions.sketchup.com/sv/content/layers-organizer

you can find the link on page 1 ))

By the way, guru in Ruby, please tell me how to add a little code so that you can change the name of the layer by pressing F2 ?
((Now it works by double-clicking, I'm more familiar with F2, and I can't substitute an addition and a check for F2 in the code in any way-it doesn't work out = little experience)

Hello.
I have some problem with layer panel plugin v 1.2.2 (Thomas Hauchecorne)
Sometimes, all groups disappear and all layers appear in one row with no groups. Do you know this bug? Do you know how to deal with it. Is it possible to restore groups or do we have to build the entire group structure from the begining? Adam
