        Hi Juju,
        I wish I had the time to enhance Windows Builder (and LOD Labels plugin too), but I'm busy on SU/Twinmotion projects for a couple of months now. I'll be back on Ruby coding asap 😉

          You just brought tears to my eyes, thanks for your valued support of the SU Extensions and community! 👍

            This looks like a great extension! I am running SU Pro 2017. When I try to install this extension from the Extension Warehouse it says "This extension is marked as being not compatible with your Operating System or SketchUp Version. Proceed anyway?".

            Is this extension incompatible with SU Pro 2017? Extension Warehouse shows "Compatibility: SketchUp 2016."

            Any clarification from anybody using this extension would appreciate. Thanks!

              You could try it an see what happens. Very often the compatibility list is slow to be updated if it is at all.

                Hi,
                Windows Builder is compatible with SU2017 (Make and Pro).
                Regards,

                  I'm probably doing something wrong but I can't get it to cut the opening. Do walls have to be grouped? I've tried both ways.
                  TIA

                    Hi Glenn

                    It works in both cases.
                    First example shows that "Cuts opening" and "punch window" both work on a regular face of a wall, and second example shows that only "punch window" works if the wall is a group.
                    But it will work OK if the context is the group (if you are within the group when launching WB)

                    Regards,

                            It seems the Windows Builder is not working in Skethcup 2024.
                            Is there a newer version or a workaround?

                              @criba there are a number of other extensions for making windows. Look here at the Sketchucation ExtensionStore and in the SketchUp Extension Warehouse.

                              You might also look at the 3D Warehouse. Loads of window components available there. Many of them are dynamic.
