SU Make and the Trimble extension store
-
I use SU Make, 2016 and can no longer access Trimble's extension store. Did they turn it off to those of use still using Make or am I looking at a different sort of problem?

I think access to the EWH within SketchUp's system ceased for versions <= v2017 [but currently v2017 Make is still available to download/install].
But you can still access the Extension Warehouse via a web-browser and download an RBZ extension and install it using the built-in 'install' tool in any version.
But... you must read each extension's notes, because some of them might not be compatible with your version of SketchUp...Conversely, the SketchUcation PluginStore allows you to download RBZ extension and install them in a similar way, but again check the individual file's compatibility etc...

TIG is correct. Direct access to both the Extension Warehouse and 3D Warehouse is no longer supported for SketchUp 2016 and earlier. The 3D Warehouse also no longer converts models back to 2016 or earlier. This is not a recent change. It happened some time ago.
For hobbyists such as yourself, TIG's suggestion of downloading extensions through your browser is a workable option. For the 3D Warehouse you can download the Collada files and then import the .dae file into SketchUp.

Thank you for the answers.
I did get a peek at the store and could not find what I hoped was there -- something that would record the XYZ as text of any vertex. The Text function will do that for an exposed vertex but not one inside a group or component.

The query tool might be what you are after.

https://extensions.sketchup.com/extension/94cdac27-351a-45c6-9059-ea71d72dcc41/utilities-toolsYes, I use it often.
What I'd like is the output of the query tool to stick around just like the output of the text tool does.
