1.1a released and published

Thanks to @TutorialsUp for flagging rotate behaviour

ACLSU

AXYZ SKETCHUP EXTENSION IS A GREAT!

RE: AXYZ SCALE

NOTE: I USE A M1 MAC BOOK PRO AND STILL USING SKP 2022VERSION 22.0.353. - HAD TO UNINSTALL 'V23 DUE TO SOME EXTENSION CONFLECTS. WILL TRY TO INSTALL SKP 2024 AFTER MY PURCHASE OF THE M3 LAPTOP.

MY QUESTION:
I SEE HOW TO TRANSFORM SCALE IN 1 AXIS BUT CAN'T FIND A WAY TO TRANSFORM SCALES EVENLY AT EQUAL PROPORTIONS ABOUT THE CENTER. ON 3 AXIS,. DOES THAT TRANSFORMATION EXIST?

AS YOU KNOW SKU'S NATIVE SCALE TOOL DOES THE EQUAL TRANSFORMATION BY CLICKING ON THE SCALE ICON FOLLOWED BY HOLDING DOWN THE SHIFT AND OPTION KEYS.

LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR REPLAY.

No, not currently

@Rich-O-Brien in scaling it'd be nice to add ability for expressions like +30cm or -30%

Compliments.

@Rich-O-Brien Hi, if it is somehow intentional, can you also please introduce the option that locked objects cannot be edited in any form? Thanks!

See video, please

Thank you for this extension, one of the most useful!

Congratulations on the plugin and thanks for listening. It would be great if you could move the object with alignment and scale, like the AutoCAD align command.

Thanks, Axyz main function is artistic control over transformations. For more robust scaling in SketchUp there's FredoScale or the native Scale tool.

I'll make note of this suggestion and the others above too! They are good ideas.

Axyz supports pre-selection and interactive select. For interactive selection tap SHIFT while hover entities to add them to the selection stack.

@Rich-O-Brien Hello, I also wanted to make the following observations. The initial pointing target gets lost a little on the screen, I think it might be good to replace it with a target that stands out a little more. Another thing that I cannot do is, for example, the displacement that the native command does to move only the point of a vertex. It would be nice if axyz could fully emulate the native move command. I think it would be great to be able to use Axyz to be able to manipulate an object in all possible ways. Finally, I don't know if you have considered using superpositions, for example like Curic does, where for example when you touch the object the gizmo appears without having to invoke the command.

Set this to false for traditional cursor

FredoSketch, Vertex Tools and Artisan already have vertex manipulation. Axyz is aimed towards object transforms.

@Rich-O-Brien Thank you for commenting, in my opinion it is interesting because with this possibility you could do without the native move command and thus you would have everything together in one command. This is very practical in the future to be able to work with a pencil without having to use the keyboard or for people who do not like to use the keyboard to draw. Anyway, thank you for your time and greetings

like Curic's gizmo.

Hello everyone,

I hope you are well.
I am getting an trial licensed expired message for this extension.

I thought this extension was free but maybe I am mistaken.
When the error message appears when i try to purchase the license it goes to a dead web page.

If anyone can give me some info I would greatly appreciate.

have a nice day

@Rich-O-Brien Yes and no. without copying Select Instances+Axyz works fine.
Maybe you with(?) Fredo could develop a new rock solid version of "select all instances"?
BTW many people request "select all instances" that would copy all instances regardless the context to the memory buffer. the 20 y.o. one that I use can't do that.

Sorry for the late answer, but.. did you try Selection Toys?
Selecti a single instance, right click and in the context menu go to "instances" and then you can choose if you want select "all" (regardless the context) or "active" (all instances in the current context).
